You Deserve Safety. We Can Help You Stay in the U.S. Without Your Abuser.
If you're married to a U.S. citizen or green card holder who has hurt you—emotionally, verbally, OR physically—you may qualify for a green card without their help.Living with abuse is painful. Trying to leave—especially when your immigration status depends on your spouse—can feel impossible. At Agarwal Law Group, we help individuals apply for legal status through the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), confidentially and without the abuser’s involvement. Most of our clients also qualify for Adjustment of Status (Green Card) to be filed concurrently with the VAWA application.

PERM
VAWA is a humanitarian law that allows immigrant spouses, children, and parents of U.S. citizens or green card holders to self-petition for legal status if they’ve experienced abuse/problems in the relationship. You do not need the abuser’s permission or participation to apply or qualify.
-You are (or were) married to a U.S. citizen or green card holder; are a child of a U.S. citizen or GC holder; or are the parent of a U.S. citizen
-You lived with them, even briefly
-You experienced emotional, verbal, physical, financial, or sexual abuse
-You are a person of good moral character
Don’t worry if you don’t have police reports. We’ve helped our clients win VAWA cases based on their own declarations and supporting documents.
