Depending on where you live, and what service providers you have, you might even get a free lawyer for these kinds of things.
For example in my situation I have free legal help bundled to my mobile data plan for ID theft, gdpr violations, and for removal of images and videos I didn't concent to have recorded.
Check your services, and you might save a bunch of money.
Jeez that's sad to read. I wish you all good luck on the voyage to a less a hostile country
