Practice
Areas

01

Immigration
Detention

We challenge unlawful detention by federal immigration authorities with relentless legal advocacy — emergency habeas petitions, challenges to ICE and DHS detention practices, and unyielding commitment through every stage of litigation.

02

Visa
Denials

We challenge visa denial decisions and consular officer authority — including in the Supreme Court. Family separation through the power of a consular stamp ends here.

03

Police
Misconduct

We represent victims of police brutality and defend against excessive force. When the state abuses its power, we are there to hold it accountable.

04

Free
Speech

We defend the fundamental right to free speech, due process, and equal protection — against employers, universities, and government suppression. Dissent is not a discipline problem.

05

Asylum

Seeking protection is a right. We fight to make that right real — building credible fear records, preparing clients for high-stakes hearings, and pursuing every legal avenue to keep families safe.

06

Removal
Defense

When the government moves to deport, we move to defend. We represent individuals and families in immigration court with strategic, prepared, full-spectrum advocacy at every stage.

07

BIA
Appeals

Immigration court isn't the end. We take the fight to the Board of Immigration Appeals with precision briefing, a fully preserved record, and an eye toward federal court if needed.

08

Petitions
for Review

We pursue federal circuit court review when the BIA gets it wrong. From emergency stays of removal to merits briefing, we litigate immigration cases at the highest levels.

Aggressive.
Uncompromising.
On your side.
Founded 2025 — Washington, D.C. & Michigan

Client Involvement

You are not a bystander in your own case. Our clients participate in strategy and decision-making at every stage. Your fight is ours, and ours is yours.

Accessibility

We serve clients regardless of financial means through flexible payment plans and crowdfunding guidance. Justice should not be a luxury.

Transparency

We use public exposure and media connections to hold institutions accountable. Sunlight is the best disinfectant — and the best litigation strategy.

Different by Design

We operate differently from traditional corporate law practices. Our experience runs from ICE to the State Department, from governors to universities. We have fought all of them.
