🗽⚖️ ANOTHER YEAR OF LIFE-SAVING & MAKING A DIFFERENCE: The GW Law Immigration Clinic Reports!

GW Law Immigration Clinic Director Professor Alberto Benítez & Co-Director Professor Paulina Vera

Friends,

My colleague Paulina Vera and I report our 2023 recap and we wish everyone a safe, prosperous, and happy 2024:

Hearings in Immigration Court: 5

Lives saved with grants of asylum: 9

Green cards obtained: 5

New U.S. citizens: 1

Oral arguments before the 4th Circuit: 1

Petitions for writ of certiorari filed at the US Supreme Court: 1

Countries represented: 13

In the spring our student-attorneys and interns wrote a comment to a federal regulation relating to asylum and hosted a public forum at the law school in which they described their comment and in the fall they organized a period products collection and distribution.
