Handling All Matters Related to Immigration Defense

Our Northern California immigration defense attorneys handle complex deportation defense for both criminal law and immigration violations. Our firm is dedicated to defending the rights of our most vulnerable immigrants. We aggressively fight for asylum protection and refugee status, permanent residency under the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), and legal status through victim of crime U visas.

We defend immigrants in San Jose and Santa Clara County and throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, as well as the Counties of Santa Cruz, Monterey, San Benito, Merced, San Joaquin, Sacramento, Fresno, and Stanislaus. Our staff of immigration lawyers includes former international human rights defenders and immigration and state bar prosecutors. Thanks to this inside knowledge, our team knows firsthand how ICE attorneys and DHS agents come after immigrants.
