Mr. E came into immigration custody in July 2014 after being arrested for allegedly driving under the influence of alcohol. Criminal charges were never filed against Mr. E, but because he was in the U.S. without permission, the government wanted to deport him back to Mexico. Fortunately, Mr. E qualified for relief against deportation because he had been continuously present in the U.S. for at least 10 years, had no criminal convictions, and had children that were born in the U.S. One of his children had a learning disability and was receiving extra support in school. On November 2, 2018, after 4 years of fighting his case in court, the Immigration Judge granted Mr. E lawful permanent residency (Green Card). Congratulations to Mr. E and his family!
Mr. B began the process of becoming a lawful permanent resident in 2001 through his wife. What should have been a straight forward case, turned into a 17 year nightmare. Mr. B entrusted his case to 2 different attorneys, before hiring Ms. Madueña to represent him in immigration court in 2017. On September 2, 2018, an Immigration Judge granted Mr. B lawful permanent residency. Read about his experience in the testimonial above!
Mr. H was a long time green card holder who was eligible to become a U.S. citizen. However, he had certain criminal convictions from over 15 years ago that made his case more complicated. Luckily, Ms. Madueña knew exactly how to research and present Mr. H's application. His case was approved and on February 15, 2018, Mr. H officially became a U.S. citizen. Congratulations Mr. H - now get out and vote!
