I offer trauma-informed clinical evaluations to support immigration cases.

ASYLUM/WITHHOLDING OF REMOVAL

For foreign nationals who have been persecuted, or have a “well-founded fear of persecution on account of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion,” in their home country.

HARDSHIP WAIVERS/CANCELLATION OF REMOVAL

For individuals whose removal, or inability to immigrate, would cause hardship to a U.S. citizen or permanent resident family member. Waivers require “extreme hardship” to a qualifying relative; cancellation of removal requires “exceptional and extremely unusual hardship” to a spouse, parent, or child.

VAWA

For foreign nationals who have experienced battery or extreme cruelty by a U.S. citizen or permanent resident spouse or parent, or by a U.S. citizen adult son or daughter.

U VISAS & T VISAS

U visas: for survivors of certain crimes who have helped, or are willing to help, law enforcement. T visas: for survivors of human trafficking.
