Denied unemployment, how do I appeal? - what worked for you?

I was told my separation was for misconduct, which is not what happened. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. My employer's version of events does not match mine, and I have emails that show it. Should I ask someone for free legal help?

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It saved me later.

Legal aid offices and some workforce centres help with unemployment hearings at no cost. A call is worth it.
