Application Processes for VAWA and U-Visas

Victims of domestic violence and other specific crimes may pursue legal residency in the United States through VAWA and U-visa pathways. For VAWA, eligible victims can self-petition by submitting Form I-360 and, when seeking to adjust their status, Form I-485. This process allows them to obtain a Green Card and achieve Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR) status. Ensuring that all forms and documentation are complete and accurate is vital for a successful self-petition under VAWA.

U-Visas cater to non-citizen victims who have suffered significant physical or mental abuse due to specific crimes, such as domestic violence, sexual assault, or human trafficking, and who collaborate with law enforcement. A U-visa provides legal residency and work authorization for up to four years and can facilitate permanent residency after three years. Both processes demand careful legal navigation to secure residency rights and empower victims, enabling them to transition toward a secure and independent future.

    "Great Attorney"
    A family member was on probation in Cameron County for a DWI. Unfortunately, he picked up a PI in another county which resulted in an MTR being filed. I went on google and came across Mauricio. I decided to give him a call since there were so many positive reviews about his communication. They were definitely right. He took the time to talk to us and was always a text message away. We were eager to get this case settled quickly to avoid getting arrested and transferred down to Cameron county ( which would have taken weeks). Within a week of the warrant going out, we were able to get the case resolved and the MTR being withdrawn. He set up the court date for us so my family member could turn himself in. We were able to walk out of the courthouse within an hour, the warrant withdrawn, and not a single day spent in jail. We are so thankful to Mauricio for resolving this case quickly and with no jail time.
