U-Nonimmigrant Status” Visa Applications

Farella lawyers teamed up with in-house lawyers from Oracle and Dropbox and Centro Legal de la Raza to help victims of violent crime who assist law enforcement apply for “U-Nonimmigrant Status” visas. U-visas incentivize cooperation with law enforcement for people who don’t have a valid visa (and therefore might otherwise avoid reporting a crime). Many of the clients we worked with had waited years to file their applications because they didn’t have money to pay legal fees.
