Brooklyn Asylum Lawyer 

People migrate to the United States for a wide range of reasons and one of those is the real fear of persecution. Immigration law in the U.S. protects those who face this terrible plight and offers the possibility of asylum. Our Brooklyn asylum lawyer is experienced in this process and can work with immigrants and their families to get the help they need. 

Based in Brooklyn, Devon King Law Firm, PLLC provides reliable immigration legal services to all of Queens, Manhattan, the Bronx, Long Island and all 50 states nationwide. Initial consultations and payment plans are available. Call the office at (718) 569-8122 or fill out our online contact form to set up a time to meet. 

Reasons Asylum Is Granted

An applicant uses Form I-589 to seek asylum. They must cite a fear of persecution based on any of the following…

  • Race
  • Ethnicity
  • Religion
  • Social Membership
  • Political Opinions

Applicants must know that it’s not enough to simply give their reason and expect that the application will be accepted. Asylum laws are complicated and asylum cases are challenging to prove and present. 

That’s where Brooklyn asylum attorney, Devon King comes in. The gathering of evidence calls for meticulous, detail-oriented work. This includes getting supporting documentation in place and preparing applicants and their potential witnesses to testify in support of the application.

Our attorney will also appear with you before the immigration agency or Judge to present your case and protect your rights.

Why Asylum Might Be Denied

Some reasons for denial are administrative in nature, something good legal counsel can help avoid. The person that applied even prior to their arrival may see their case dismissed with a denial. On the other extreme, someone who has been in the United States for over a year without seeking refugee status may well be denied on those grounds. 

The incomplete filling out of the application is another reason that asylum seekers might be denied. Our Brooklyn asylum lawyer can help applicants steer clear of these avoidable mistakes and focus their attention on the key challenge—documenting how well-founded their fears of persecution are.
