Immigration Attorney

If you or a loved one does not have any legal status in the United States, our dedicated immigration attorneys can help you and make sure that your petition or other application is done correctly.  Over the last few years, the United States immigration policies have substantially changed.  We do not recommend that you try and navigate this process without an experienced attorney by your side.

If one of the categories below applies to you or your loved one, call (817) 482-6570 to schedule a free case review with one of our experienced attorneys.

Immigration Services - Asylum

What types of asylum are available to me?

There are two different ways to claim asylum in the United States. There is an affirmative asylum and a defensive asylum. The easiest and best way to obtain status through asylum is affirmative asylum.

Affirmative asylum means that the applicant is not in deportation proceedings. If this is you, please reach out to us quickly. For most people, they only have one year to claim asylum. Of course, there are special exceptions, but for most asylum seekers, the deadline is one year from entering the United States.

Can a person who entered illegally claim asylum?

The simple answer is yes. A lot of asylum seekers are here in the United States illegally, and often, this makes them not want to file for asylum status. But do not be afraid; you can still qualify for asylum even if you are here illegally.

What is this Form I-589 I keep hearing about?

Form I-589 is officially called the Application for Asylum and Withholding of Removal. The I-589 is the formal document a person files for asylum to be qualified as a refugee. Both affirmative asylum seekers and defensive asylum seekers use this form. While this document may seem “easy” to complete and straightforward, you should get an attorney to help you fill it out the right way the first time.
