Practice Areas
Immigration court proceeding
Are the legal process in which a judge determines whether a person may remain in the United States. Individuals have the opportunity to present their case, apply for relief, and be heard. With proper legal guidance, the process can be navigated with clarity, ensuring each person's circumstances are thoughtfully considered.
Special ImmigrJuveniles (SIJ)
A legal process available to certain undocumented minors who have been abused, neglected, or abandoned by one or both parents, providing a pathway to apply for lawful permanent residency. To qualify, the individual must be unmarried and under the age of 21. The process requires the Superior Court of New Jersey to issue an order determining that it is not in the minor's best interest to return to their home country and that reunification with one or both parents is not viable. Once the petition is approved by USCIS, the individual must wait until their priority date becomes current before applying for permanent resident status.
