Asylum


Political Asylum

The United States grants asylum to people who cannot return to their home countries because they fear persecution because of their race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group or political opinion. In addition, we counsel people who may be unable to return to their country of origin because of economic and natural disaster or because there is a high probability they will be tortured for reasons other than those used in U.S. immigration law.

How an attorney helps

At our law firm, we help people complete and file USCIS form I-589 (application for asylum and for withholding of removal). We also help with the completion of forms that permit work and travel outside the country while the petition for asylum is pending. At our Orange County, California, law firm, our immigration lawyer, Kiran Nair, frequently represents people seeking asylum in the Anaheim immigration court. Contact our Newport Beach law firm, the Law Offices of Fred Thiagarajah. Call us toll-free at 1-866-511-2757.

We help people from around the world

Attorney Nair has helped people from a wide variety of countries seek asylum in the United States. Among these countries are:

  • Nicaragua
  • Honduras
  • Syria
  • Lebanon
  • Saudi Arabia
  • Sri Lanka
  • Myanmar/Burma

Our clients in asylum proceedings fear to return to countries in the Middle East, Central America, Africa and Southeast Asia. We help them establish and document the grounds for their fear of persecution in their effort to receive temporary protective status (TPR). We also help people who may not qualify for asylum under U.S. law to petition to withhold removal under the United Nations Convention Against Torture.
