On September 9, 2010, the Immigration Court in New York granted the asylum petition of Mr. D., an individual referred to Simpson Thacher in 2007 by the New York City Bar Association’s Refugee Assistance Project. Simpson Thacher represented the client before the Immigration Court, and on appeal before the Board of Immigration Appeals, and prevailed in both courts.
The Simpson Thacher team consisted of Gabrielle Kelleher, Ian R. Dattner, Craig Katerberg, Joia Lee, Shruti Raju, and former associate Celine Hwang, and was overseen by Todd Crider.
