Our services
Our primary goal is to treat the refugees, asylees, and immigrants among us with the respect and dignity they deserve. We believe that no human being is illegal, and that every person deserves equal representation and access to legal services, regardless of status.
If you already have an open case with us, or have already received an initial consultation, please contact your case manager / attorney directly for a follow up appointment. You can also complete the inquiry below and we will reach out within 72 business hours.
If this is your first time seeking our services, you can book an appointment online for an initial screening to determine eligibility. We offer first time appointments on TUESDAYS ONLY. Please enter the information for the person seeking the consultation so we can confirm your appointment as soon as possible.
