Asylum

For those fleeing persecution in their home country based on race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group, asylum may offer a path to safety and lawful status. We guide clients through every stage, from filing the I-589 to preparing for interviews and hearings. Liberty Legal has extensive experience with both affirmative and defensive asylum claims.

​

Our team ensures your testimony is clear and well-supported by evidence, expert declarations, and country condition reports. We take time to understand your unique story, because we know the difference it makes in building a strong case.

​

Convention Against Torture (CAT)

If you fear torture upon return to your home country, protection under the Convention Against Torture may be available. This relief is not limited to specific protected grounds but requires evidence that the torture would be inflicted by, or with the acquiescence of, public officials.

 

We help clients meet the high evidentiary standards required for CAT and coordinate medical and psychological evaluations where needed to corroborate past trauma and support credible fear.

 

Cancellation of Removal

This form of relief is available to certain noncitizens in removal proceedings who can demonstrate long-term residence, good moral character, and exceptional hardship to a qualifying U.S. citizen or LPR relative.

 

Our attorneys develop strong legal arguments, gather compelling evidence, and prepare our clients and their witnesses for success in court.

 

Special Immigrant Juvenile Status (SIJS)

SIJS is a pathway to permanent residency for children who have been abused, abandoned, or neglected. The process begins in state court and continues with USCIS.

​

We handle all aspects of SIJS cases, from juvenile court proceedings to green card applications, with sensitivity and attention to detail.

 

Humanitarian Parole

This temporary solution allows urgent entry into the U.S. for humanitarian reasons. It’s often used in medical emergencies or reunification cases.

 

We prepare thorough applications that clearly explain the urgency and provide evidence to support parole approval.

 

U Visa

Victims of certain crimes who assist law enforcement may qualify for a U Visa. This can lead to a green card and legal status for certain family members.

 

We work closely with victims, advocates, and certifying agencies to obtain the required I-918B certification and prepare compelling submissions.

 

T Visa

Survivors of trafficking may qualify for protection under a T Visa. This visa not only provides lawful status and work authorization but may lead to a green card.

 

We build your case with care and discretion, ensuring that law enforcement involvement, coercion, and exploitation are properly documented.

 

Military Parole in Place (PIP)

For undocumented family members of U.S. service members, PIP offers protection from removal and a potential path to adjustment of status.

 

Liberty Legal understands the importance of keeping military families together and handles these applications with urgency and honor.

 

Temporary Protected Status (TPS)

TPS protects nationals of certain countries affected by conflict or disaster from deportation and permits them to live and work in the U.S. temporarily.

 

We assist with first-time filings, re-registrations, and late initial filings where applicable.

 

I-601 Waivers

Used to waive certain grounds of inadmissibility such as unlawful presence or misrepresentation, this waiver requires proof of extreme hardship to a U.S. citizen or LPR spouse or parent.

 

We build detailed hardship arguments supported by declarations, medical records, financial evidence, and expert evaluations.

 

I-601A Waiver

This provisional waiver is for immigrants needing to leave the U.S. for consular processing. It helps reduce the time families are separated.

 

We ensure every form and declaration is thorough and accurate to increase the likelihood of approval before consular departure.

 

I-212 Waiver

For those who have been deported or removed and seek lawful reentry, an I-212 waiver may be required.

 

We present strong evidence of rehabilitation, ties to the U.S., and compelling discretionary factors.

​

Hranka Waiver

This discretionary waiver is available to certain nonimmigrants who are otherwise inadmissible. It is evaluated under a balancing test of positive vs. negative equities.

 

We make persuasive cases for clients with compelling humanitarian, family, or public interest factors.

 

Non-Immigrant Waiver

Nonimmigrant waivers under INA § 212(d)(3) may be available for short-term entry despite past immigration or criminal violations.

 

We prepare waiver packets that clearly outline the purpose of travel, history of compliance, and any compelling equities.
