One of the most important differences between immigration and criminal law is that there is often no clearly defined law on when a non-citizen will or will not be deported after a criminal conviction. We have been actively involved in seeking protection for gay men and women who have been persecuted due to their sexuality or who fear returning to their country will lead to persecution, violence or retribution.

Asylum and related forms of refugee relief are typically a last resort for victims of persecution. Recently, there has been a surge of nationals seeking asylum from Venezuela, Haiti, Jamaica and the Middle East.
In order to qualify for asylum, one must prove that they were a victim of persecution by the government due to their race, religion, nationality, membership in a social group or political opinion, or that they have a valid fear of future persecution.These cases are difficult to prove but can result in legal permanent residency (green card) for the applicant and their family.

Grace was a extremely professional and helped us get through the very stressful process of obtaining a resident card for by wife. She answered all our questions and helped us fill out the paperwork. She even accompanied us to the interview. We got the card in less than a year which is very fast. I highly recommend her services. Thanks Grace!!!

Grace was referred to me by a former colleague and she was amazing at guiding my wife and i through the immigration process. My wife is from Brazil, I am a US citizen.
Thanks to Grace’s professional expertise we were able to obtain permanent residency (green card) for my wife.
*I* was not an easy person to work with - I would call or text Grace with questions or concerns on weekends or after hours and she was always kind and responsive.
If you need help with immigration - do what I did and call Grace. She will explain and help navigate the process while leaving you with less stress!

I was referred to Grace because I was told she is the expert at handling immigration issues. When I first met her and her team they reassured me that it was going to be all good. A year later, my husband arrived and it went smoothly. Grace and her team were there for any questions or concerns. Thank you so much for all that you have done and anyone that needs an immigration lawyer, you best believe I will be sending them your way.

Grace was excellent! She walked my partner and I through all the steps we needed for me to become a US resident. She explained all the expectations and ins and outs of the process, kept us diligently reminded of important dates and deadlines and made sure we felt comfortable with what we were doing. We really appreciated her guidance, her expertise and her attendance at our immigration interview. Highly recommended.

After talking to several lawyers without any results,
a friend of mine told me to try Grace, she gave me new hope and advised me on the right strategy. She strongly motivated me to get my results.
First I got the visa as an artist and then the Green Card. Grace is great!
She has a lot of patience, and follows you step by step. Strongly recommended !!!
