Got a denial letter for unemployment, what now? - 5 months and counting

I was told my separation was for misconduct, which is not what happened. This is my first time dealing with any of this. 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?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 5 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
