Nothing beats the feeling of being able to reunite a family, and give someone a second chance at a new life free from persecution. This past week, my client Alvaro was granted asylum by the Immigration Court; these are photos of the moment he was reunited with his family in the U.S. I want to congratulate him again and wish them all the best!

Esta semana mi cliente Alvaro ganó el asilo en la Corte de Inmigración; estas son fotos del momento en que fué reunido con su familia en los Estados Unidos. Lo felicito de nuevo y le deseo lo mejor!

I got my start in immigration law during my days at Las Americas Immigrant Advocacy Center, and I still remember every May 1 from my time there as Immigrants' Rights Day. Immigrants have helped make this country everything that it is, and immigration has shaped the US in a way unlike any other country. To all my immigrant clients past ans present, Happy May 1st. ❤️

Throwback to that time I stayed up on election night 2020 to talk on French TV about being an immigration lawyer under Trump.

Halyna Luhova, the mayor of Kherson, Ukraine, has almost been killed six times. Russian forces burned down her house.

Despite relentless attacks on her city, she projects an air of normality, seeing her job defined by basic tasks: bury, clean, fix, feed.

December 10 is . As an immigration attorney that represents asylum seekers, I know too well the lengths to which people will go for the opportunity to enjoy those rights. They are committed to living in peace & security, and I am committed to playing my part in that journey. For me this is what "saving the world, one case at a time" is all about (if you know where that's from, you know!)

Happy Friday! A tip about ICE bonds: try to pay them before Friday if possible, or first thing Friday morning!

The reason for this is that ICE deportation officers need to process the paperwork and your loved one out for release, and they tend to work Monday-Friday. So, if you post bond late Friday afternoon, the deportation officer might not get to it before leaving for the weekend, and your loved one will have to wait until Monday to finally be released. Fridays are great for a lot of reasons, but not for paying bonds!

One final tip: don't wait til the day before the next court hearing to post bond either! Many times ICE will not release a detainee until after their hearing if it's coming up.

Take care and enjoy your weekend everybody! 😊

We will never forget the oppressing wave of shock, fear, and sadness that struck us all when we first heard the horrible news of August 3rd. That tragic day, hate and discrimination came to our peaceful town, but we stood together. United, we showed the world we fight hate with love, care, and compassion. Let’s continue that goal. Let’s not forget to uplift one another. And let’s honor and remember the 23 innocent souls that were lost.
