Asylum

Asylum protects individuals who have suffered persecution or have a well-founded fear of future persecution in their home country based on race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group.

Our asylum attorneys assist clients with:

  • Evaluating eligibility and meeting filing deadlines
  • Preparing detailed personal statements and supporting evidence
  • Developing legally sound claims supported by country condition research
  • Representation during asylum interviews and immigration court proceedings

Asylum cases require careful preparation and credibility. We work closely with clients to present clear, well-documented applications that meet U.S. legal standards.

Provisional Waivers (Form I-601A)

Individuals who have accrued unlawful presence in the United States may face multi-year bars when attending a consular interview abroad. The Provisional Unlawful Presence Waiver (Form I-601A) allows eligible applicants to request forgiveness before departing the U.S.

Our provisional waiver services include:

  • Eligibility analysis for I-601A waivers
  • Strategic preparation of extreme hardship evidence
  • Accurate filing and case management with USCIS
  • Guidance through consular processing following waiver approval

Proper preparation of a provisional waiver can significantly reduce the risk of prolonged family separation.

Citizenship and Naturalization

U.S. citizenship provides long-term security, legal rights, and full participation in civic life. The naturalization process involves strict eligibility requirements and careful review by USCIS.

Our citizenship and naturalization services include:

  • Determining eligibility for naturalization
  • Preparation and filing of Form N-400
  • Addressing issues related to travel history or prior immigration matters
  • Preparing clients for the English and civics examination
