Refugee Status and Resettlement Assistance: Full-Scope Legal Support
Applying for refugee status in the United States is a highly complex, multi-step process grounded in humanitarian protection and governed by both U.S. and international law. Refugee status offers legal protection to individuals who have been subjected to persecution or have a well-founded fear of future persecution in their country of origin. Eligibility is based on five protected grounds: race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group. The legal framework derives from the 1951 Geneva Convention, the 1967 Protocol Relating to the Status of Refugees, and the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). Our law firm provides comprehensive legal assistance to applicants at every step — from consultation to final settlement and integration.
We recognize that seeking asylum or refugee status is not merely a legal action — it's often a life-saving step taken in extremely vulnerable circumstances. That is why our approach is rooted in compassion, confidentiality, and precision. Whether you are fleeing war, dictatorship, state violence, or systemic human rights violations, we are here to help you build a new future under the protection of U.S. law.
What Our Refugee Legal Services Include
Our team offers a full range of services for individuals applying for refugee status, whether from abroad or within the U.S. asylum process:
- Eligibility evaluation based on international conventions and USCIS standards
- Analysis of claims involving past persecution or credible fear of harm
- Preparation of detailed personal affidavits narrating the applicant’s experience
- Collection and translation of evidence: medical reports, threats, photos, police records, witness statements
- Legal representation before USCIS, EOIR, U.S. consulates, the UNHCR, or cooperating NGOs
- Full preparation for interviews and hearings, including response coaching and procedural guidance
Every case is unique. We carefully tailor our legal strategy to each applicant’s country conditions, family history, and supporting documents. In addition, we collaborate with humanitarian agencies, interpreters, physicians, and trauma-informed therapists when necessary to present the most compelling and legally sound case.
Life After Refugee Status Approval
Once approved, the refugee receives lawful status in the United States, along with the right to work, access federal assistance, and enroll in integration programs. After one year, the refugee becomes eligible to apply for lawful permanent residence (a green card). Later, they may pursue U.S. citizenship. Our firm supports clients not only through the initial petition but also through these subsequent phases of permanent immigration and naturalization.
If immediate family members are still abroad, we assist with follow-to-join petitions and reunification processes through consulates and the International Organization for Migration (IOM). This includes legal coordination for spouses and unmarried children under 21. We are committed to making reunification as smooth and timely as possible.
Our firm also guides clients on accessing language training, employment programs, housing assistance, and other resettlement resources offered by federal agencies and nonprofit resettlement partners.
