Overview
The Latin American Association Immigration Services help advance immigrant integration for Latino and immigrant communities across Georgia. Established in 1999, the organization operates a comprehensive Immigration Services office staffed with attorneys, DOJ-accredited representatives, paralegals, and volunteers knowledgeable in immigration law.
Services provided include eligibility consultations for immigration benefits, immigration relief for victims of domestic violence, assistance with removal defense, and legal support for unaccompanied immigrant children. Their work has contributed to significant legal precedents, including specialized protections for juveniles seeking Special Immigrant Juvenile Status.
Beyond legal support, the association engages with the community through educational workshops, presentations, and forums aimed at spreading awareness and empowering immigrants to understand their rights and navigate complex immigration processes.
The team has conducted over 1,000 consultations, secured legal protections for hundreds of domestic violence victims, and assisted 128 unaccompanied minors in obtaining legal status. Their advocacy has influenced immigration court docketing procedures to ensure dedicated consideration of juvenile cases.
For ongoing community education and events, visitors can check their social media platforms. There is no public pricing information available; as a nonprofit, services may be offered at low or no cost depending on the case and eligibility.
