Protection for Those Who Fear Returning Home
Asylum offers legal protection to individuals who have suffered persecution or have a well-founded fear of persecution in their home country. At Yesildal Law, we build strong, well-documented asylum cases and stand by your side through every stage of the process.
Who Qualifies for Asylum?
To qualify for asylum, you must demonstrate that you have been persecuted or have a well-founded fear of persecution based on race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group. You must apply within one year of arriving in the United States.
Affirmative vs. Defensive Asylum
Affirmative asylum is filed with USCIS when you are not in removal proceedings. Defensive asylum is raised as a defense before an immigration judge. Our attorneys are experienced in both pathways and will determine the best strategy for your case.
What Happens After Approval
Approved asylum seekers may apply for a green card after one year of being granted asylum. You may also petition to bring qualifying family members to the United States. We guide you through every step of building your life here safely and legally.
A Safe Future Starts With the Right Legal Team
Fleeing persecution takes immense courage. At Yesildal Law, we listen to your story with compassion and build the strongest possible case to secure the protection you deserve — so you can finally feel safe.
