Asylum
Asylum is a vital protection for individuals who have fled their home countries due to persecution or a well-founded fear of persecution based on race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion. The process of seeking asylum in the United States is challenging, requiring a deep understanding of the legal system and a strong presentation of your case. The Law Office of Muhammed Kus PLLC is committed to providing compassionate, expert legal representation to those seeking refuge in the U.S.
-
Application for Asylum (Form I-589):
The first step in the asylum process is to file Form I-589, Application for Asylum and for Withholding of Removal. This application must be filed within one year of your arrival in the United States, unless you qualify for an exception. Our firm assists you in preparing and submitting this application, ensuring that all required information and evidence are included to support your claim. -
Credible Fear Interviews:
If you are detained at the U.S. border or port of entry, you may be required to undergo a credible fear interview to determine if you have a credible fear of persecution or torture. This interview is a critical step in your asylum case, and we provide thorough preparation to help you clearly and effectively present your fears to immigration officials. -
Asylum Hearings:
If your asylum case proceeds to an immigration court hearing, having skilled legal representation is crucial. We represent you in court, advocating on your behalf, presenting evidence, and cross-examining witnesses to build the strongest possible case for your asylum claim. -
Derivative Asylum for Family Members:
If you are granted asylum, your spouse and unmarried children under the age of 21 may also be eligible for derivative asylum status. We assist in filing the necessary petitions to bring your family members to the United States or adjust their status if they are already here. -
Withholding of Removal and Protection Under the Convention Against Torture (CAT):
In cases where asylum may not be granted, we explore other forms of relief, such as withholding of removal or protection under CAT, which can prevent you from being deported to a country where you would face persecution or torture.
Our Commitment:
We understand the fear and uncertainty that accompany the asylum process and are dedicated to providing compassionate, thorough, and effective legal representation. Our goal is to protect your rights and help you build a new life in the United States, free from the dangers you faced in your home country.
