Asylum Lawyers In Oakland
Dedicated Support for Asylum Seekers in California
The world is dangerous, and the United States of America cannot claim to have it all figured out, either. Our citizens must fight for their freedoms in certain states with shifting political winds. However, as a nation, we attempt to provide refuge to people from other lands with even fewer protections under the law. Asylum is a useful immigration option that is open to some from other countries who have reason to fear persecution in their home countries.
You may be eligible for asylum in America if you establish a well-founded fear of persecution in your home country. Immigration law states that persecution may take many forms, including physical violence, rape, torture, death threats, financial destruction, sexual violence, and detention or imprisonment. Not all those who flee their home country will win asylum. Your best hope is to coordinate with an asylum attorney and legal professionals experienced in immigration law.
If you are a new client looking for assistance in obtaining asylum for yourself or a loved one, the firm of Landerholm Immigration, A.P.C offers a free consultation. Contact us to speak to an immigration attorney about your case. With the help of our dedicated legal team, we may be able to help you achieve asylum status in America so that you do not need to live afraid of persecution any longer.

How Can An Attorney Help You Through The Asylum Process?
We understand that this can be a frightening, overwhelming experience for you. You wouldn’t be planning to flee your homeland if you didn’t have good reason. And we know that if you fail to achieve your asylum status, you may be forced to face deadly consequences in your home country.
The process can take longer than anyone would like. A decision should be made within 180 days of the date the application was filed. Even if a decision has not been made by then, the applicant may be eligible to work within the United States. There could be additional delays in the decision in cases held up by security and background checks or for applicants with criminal histories. During this time, your lawyer will do everything in their legal power to ensure that all documents are accounted for and that things are moving as smoothly as possible.
Asylum status does not expire. Additionally, a person who has expressed genuine concern about being forced to return to their country of origin cannot face the risk of deportation. Those who have reason to be concerned about the dangers of violence, war, torture, and rape should not face these threats and the maze of immigration law alone. You are encouraged to seek an ally in this fight for your safety. An experienced immigration attorney is best suited to helping you through the legal process of seeking refuge in America.
