Your Shield in Immigration Court

We deploy a multi-layered strategy to defend your right to stay.

Bond & Release

Our first priority is securing your release from detention by fighting for a reasonable bond.

Cancellation of Removal

We build strong 'exceptional hardship' cases for long-term residents to obtain a green card.

Asylum & Protection

We file robust defensive asylum, withholding, and CAT claims for those fleeing persecution.

Litigation & Appeals

If a decision is unjust, we are prepared to appeal to the BIA and federal circuit courts.
