VAWA (Violence Against Women Act) Self Petitions
The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) provides a powerful form of immigration relief for individuals who have suffered abuse at the hands of a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident spouse, parent, or child. Through VAWA, survivors can apply for lawful status independently—without the knowledge, consent, or involvement of their abuser.
​
Our firm is committed to offering confidential, trauma-informed representation to help survivors reclaim safety, independence, and a secure future in the United States.
