STB Wins Cancellation of Removal for Pro Bono Client

03.14.11

The Immigration Court granted cancellation of removal to our client, Mr. R, after a full hearing which included expert testimony showing that he would face extreme hardship if he were to be deported and could not continue to receive his current treatment in the United States for severe medical problems. The matter was part of the Firm’s Immigration Removal Defense Program with the Legal Aid Society of New York. The STB team consisted of associates Alora Thomas and Michael Silver and legal assistant Maria Gonzalez. Associate Juan Arteaga and partner Paul Gluckow provided supervision. Former associates Julissa Reynoso, Amy Machado, and Eric Sarabia also worked on the matter.
