We do asylum, juvenile visas, removal defense, humanitarian visas, and the occasional family immigration case.
We are on a mission to turn victimhood into empowerment by helping one million Latin Americans who suffered persecution achieve permanent status in the U.S. through humanitarian relief, and change what it means to be an immigrant. Most of us are immigrants, some of us are refugees, and we are a Queer community.
