ASYLUM & REFUGEES

Dallas, Texas Asylum and Refugee Attorney

At the law offices of Terry W. Rombough, located in Arlington and Dallas, Texas, we assist clients with regard to seeking asylum to gain legal residency status in the United States. We also serve the entire Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, as well as representing clients nationwide and from many foreign countries. Certain requirements must be filled under immigration law. As your immigration attorneys, we will communicate those requirements to you.

Those seeking asylum are already in the United States, and submit their petition to the United States government. Refugees are outside of the United States and seeking help from the United Nations. Many individuals fleeing their countries and seeking asylum are being persecuted by their government or a group that their government is unable or unwilling to control. Persecution can be based on race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group.
Asylum is often requested when an illegal alien has been caught at the United States border and arrested for attempting to enter the country illegally. While asylum is not guaranteed and you could be deemed ineligible, a knowledgeable and experienced immigration attorney can help increase your chances to escape persecution.

At the law offices of Terry W. Rombough, we will determine your eligibility for asylum and file an affirmative asylum application for you to appear before an administrative judge. If you are already facing deportation, you will appear before an immigration judge. Once approved, you can apply for permanent residence in a year and have the chance to bring your spouse and children to the United States via a special application process.
