ICE granted our Request for Stay for our Chiapas client and released him from jail, temporarily ending our 4 month battle to secure his release. After his arrest by ICE, we learned that he had a deportation order from 1994. Our Motion to Reopen was denied by the Miami Immigration Court for being filed so many years after the order. An appeal to the BIA also failed. Kudos to ICE for granting this Stay and releasing him, clearly showing adherence to the new guidelines. We provided a complex psychological report which described in detail the ramifications to the 4 US children of our client in the event of his deportation. Another family reunited for Christmas. We are privileged to be able to do this work and to bring so much joy to clients.

A happy Christmas surprise to our 19 year old refugee from El Salvador who had been in ICE custody for more than 5 weeks. She was arrested at her home, after she failed to appear for an immigration hearing. She had an In Abstentia order of deportation resulting from her failure to appear. The immigration court reopened her case, after we effectively argued with compelling evidence, that although she had proper notice of the hearing, she completely depended on her father for everything, including advice and transportation. The family is reunited for the Christmas holiday. What a nice gift.

We are proud to report the grant of a green card to our Romanian client who was subject to a 212 e home stay requirement because she had originally come to the US on a Fulbright on a J visa. These waivers are almost impossible to get. However in this case, careful planning together with the detailed work of our attorney made winning this case a reality (after this client was told by at least 5 other lawyers that she would have to go to Romania for the requisite 2 years and that getting the waiver was impossible).

Today an Egyptian family won its long fought deportation case. One of the members was granted a green card based on 3 year, VAWA cancellation. Another member was granted Withholding of Removal and the third member was granted asylum. This family had been in the US illegally for many years before being placed in proceedings. We would not have succeeded without the assistance of Middle East country conditions expert Shaul Gabbay.

The Cleveland Immigration Court granted ten year cancellation of removal to a Mexican mother of four United States Citizen children. The mother has resided in the United States since she was only fourteen years old. Most of family were already residing in the United States legally when she came to the United States. Her family has been her support system throughout the years. All of her children have health issues. She has very limited ties to Mexico today and, as she has lived the majority of her life in the United States, she knows very little about Mexico and its culture today. For these as well as other reasons, the judge granted ten year cancellation believing the children would suffer exceptional hardship in Mexico as the mother could not be able to provide for them there.

News
A Guatemalan father of a severely disabled child with a final order of removal was granted a stay by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The father is being released from ICE custody and will be under an Order of supervision. In granting the stay, ICE recognized the importance of allowing the father to remain in the United States for the sake of his disabled child. Our thanks goes out to all the ICE officers here in Cleveland for their compassion, understanding and hard work in this matter.

I had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Svetlana Schreiber in an appointment scheduled throughout the phone. First i would like to thank her. I have been advised by a large number of attorneys over the years regarding my immigration status and absolutely none of them has been really trying to understand my problem and most importantly to find a solution for it. I have always wanted to meet that attorney that will no longer say that there is no solution for me and the answer for now is patience. And I finally have found that person that said I have been wasting way too many years hiding behind my fears and encouraged me to make a step in a changing direction. You will find in Mrs. Schreiber not only a knowledgeable and eager attorney, but an encouraging and supporting people person and I strongly recommend you to establish your first connection with her and dare to dream bigger!
