Immigration Help for Victims of Crime and Domestic ViolenceIf you are a victim of domestic violence or another crime, you still have rights under U.S. law, and you are able to file for legal status because of those crimes. Regardless of your citizenship or immigration status, you still have a right to legal protection. We will help you file a petition for nonimmigrant status to help the authorities pursue justice for the crime against you, and we can help you file for permanent resident status as well. If you or your children have been victims of domestic violence, we will help you file for permanent residence status without the knowledge of your spouse and keep it completely confidential under the Violence Against Women Act.
