Why Choose GPV Immigration Law for Asylum Representation in the United States
Applying for asylum in the United States can be overwhelming, especially when facing uncertainty about your future. The legal process requires strong evidence and well-prepared testimony. Our firm helps asylum applicants present compelling cases to immigration officials, proving that returning to their home countries would result in persecution.
Many asylum seekers are placed in removal proceedings, requiring legal representation before an immigration judge. Our attorneys aggressively fight to prevent deportation, seeking relief through asylum claims, withholding of removal, and other protections. We also appeal unfavorable decisions before the board of immigration appeals and, if necessary, the court of appeals.
We understand that many asylum seekers have family members who remain in danger abroad. Once asylum is granted, we assist clients in petitioning for their loved ones to join them in the U.S. Our firm works diligently to protect families and ensure they remain together in a safe and stable environment.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the basic asylum eligibility requirements in the U.S.?
To qualify for asylum, you must prove that you have suffered or fear persecution in your home country due to race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group. Our firm carefully reviews each client’s case to determine the best path forward.
How long does the asylum process take in the United States?
Processing times vary widely depending on case complexity and immigration court backlogs. While some applicants receive decisions within months, others may wait years. Our attorneys help streamline the process by ensuring complete and accurate filings to minimize delays.
What happens if my asylum application is denied?
If your application is denied, you may have the right to appeal before the board of immigration appeals or even the court of appeals. We analyze the reasons for denial and develop a strong appellate strategy to challenge the decision and protect your future.
Can I apply for asylum if I entered the U.S. illegally?
Yes. You can still apply for asylum even if you entered without documentation. However, you must file your application within one year of arrival unless you qualify for an exception. Our firm helps asylum seekers meet the requirements and avoid unnecessary complications.
Does asylum status allow me to bring my family to the U.S.?
Yes. If your asylum case is successful, you may petition for family members such as a spouse and unmarried children under 21 to join you in the United States. Our legal team assists with family reunification applications to ensure a smooth process.
Can victims of domestic violence seek asylum?
Yes. Victims of domestic violence may qualify for asylum if they belong to a social group facing targeted persecution. These cases require extensive legal arguments, and our attorneys work closely with survivors to build strong claims.
What is withholding of removal, and how is it different from asylum?
Withholding of removal is an alternative form of protection for individuals who do not meet the full criteria for asylum but can prove they would be harmed if returned to their home country. Unlike asylum, withholding of removal does not lead to permanent residency but prevents deportation.
