Areas of Practice
Asylum and Withholding of Removal
Asylum and withholding of removal are two forms of relief available to many migrants present in the U.S. without status or those arriving at the border. Asylum is an option for those who have been persecuted based on their (1) race, (2) religion, (3) nationality, (4) political opinion, or (5) membership in a particular social group. Our attorney handles every asylum and withholding of removal case with great care, knowing that unpacking trauma — while necessary for an asylum claim — can be extremely difficult. We will work with you to make this process as seamless as possible.
Family Petitions
For those in the U.S. who are married or related to U.S. citizens and Legal Permanent Residents (LPRs), there is a path of adjustment available through the Form I-130. Citizens and LPRs may petition for adjustment of status for their immigrant spouse after their bona fide marriage, as long as the spouse is not barred by any grounds of inadmissibility. Other family members of U.S. citizens may also be eligible for adjustment of status, including parents, siblings, and children. If you are not yet married and want your future spouse to join you in the U.S., a fiancé visa may be available to you. Meet with our attorney to discuss if a family petition is option for you and your family.
Naturalization
If you have completed your required time as a legal permanent resident and are ready and eligible to take the exciting leap into becoming a U.S. citizen, Blackwell Law can help you correctly fill out your N-400 application, prepare for the naturalization exam, and join you on your interview day with USCIS to make sure your process to citizenship goes as smoothly as possible.
