U Visas

The U visa is available to individuals who have been victims of certain crimes—such as domestic violence, assault, or human trafficking—and who have cooperated with law enforcement in the investigation or prosecution. It offers a path to legal status and, eventually, permanent residency. At Sonnenklar Law, we help survivors apply for this powerful form of immigration relief with care and confidentiality.

VAWA

Under the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), certain immigrants who have suffered abuse by a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident spouse, parent, or child may apply for legal status without the abuser’s knowledge or consent. VAWA allows survivors to regain safety and independence. Sonnenklar Law handles these cases with compassion, discretion, and strong legal support.

ASYLUM

Asylum is available to individuals who fear returning to their home country due to persecution based on race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group. If granted, asylum allows you to remain in the U.S. and eventually apply for permanent residency. Sonnenklar Law guides clients through every step of the asylum process with care and attention to detail.
