Immigration Law Clinic

Immigration Legal Clinic

Many immigrants struggle to find affordable, quality legal advice and counsel. That is why we opened a low-cost immigration law office. We counsel all kinds of immigrants, both documented and undocumented, on their immigration possibilities. We can represent clients in their petitions before the US government. Use the “Contact Us” form below to request an appointment at our immigration law office. 

We specialize in:

Naturalization

Family-based immigration

Victims of Crime and Domestic Violence

Work Authorization

DACA and TPS

And much more

Volunteer opportunities

We’re so happy you’re interested in helping. Below are some volunteer positions we could always use. If nothing below fits, but you’re still interested in helping, let us know what your skills are and we can try to connect you.

Current Opportunites

Here are our current needs. Contact us if you have any questions or are interested in volunteering!

Translators – We need individuals who can translate documents for submission to USCIS. We also need help translating our own materials for promotional and educational uses. Requirements are fluency in the specified language and English.

Interpreters – When an immigrant goes in for immigration interviews they have to provide their own interpreter. We need volunteers who can accompany our clients to their interviews and interpret for them. Primary languages needed are Spanish, Chinese, and French (but if you know another language let us know. You never know when it may be needed!) We can also use interpreters in our office from time to time.

Pro-Bono Attorneys – While we can help with many immigration cases, some are outside of our ability. If you are an attorney and would like to work with us, please contact us. We would love to collaborate! Our primary needs are in immigration, family, and criminal law.

Legal Help

Public Policy Advocacy

Sign Up Here To Receive Alerts: Carolina Immigrant Alliance Newsletter

At times, certain laws or proposed laws threaten our work of assisting in mutual integration. Often these laws harm the immigrant community, and in some way prevent them from living full and free lives. At those times, the Carolina Immigrant Alliance will advocate for just and equitable treatment of all people, with the goal of a more equal, just society for immigrant and non-immigrant alike. We do this by hosting prayer vigils and rallies, through “contact your representative” action alerts, and encouraging everyone to use their voice to call for just legislation and equal enforcement. If you would like to receive occasional emails about our public policy advocacy, including action alerts and event notices, follow the link below to sign up. You can also follow us on Facebook for these updates.

Educating both the immigrant community and the non-immigrant community is central to our work.

We offer workshops that help immigrants understand their basic rights that are protected by the US Constitution. We offer immigration simulations to help non-immigrants understand the realities of what it is like to immigrate to the United States. We offer faith-based workshops on the immigration debate, biblical hospitality, and overcoming racial and ethnic differences. To learn more about any of these opportunities, please use the contact form below.

Diversity is our strength

Explore this site to learn more about what we offer and how we can help you, your church, or your organization.

We believe that diversity is our strength and that everyone has something to offer. We believe that our communities will be stronger as we learn from our neighbors, both new and old, and work together to form a community of mutual love, respect, and commitment to one another. We believe that integration is a two-way street, where both newcomers and long-time residents can learn and be taught about how life can be lived together

    We strive to create this reality through:

    Immigration Legal Aid

    Public Policy Advocacy

    Community and Individual

    Education

    Relationship Building

    This is an example page. It’s different from a blog post because it will stay in one place and will show up in your site navigation (in most themes). Most people start with an About page that introduces them to potential site visitors. It might say something like this:

    Hi there! I’m a bike messenger by day, aspiring actor by night, and this is my website. I live in Los Angeles, have a great dog named Jack, and I like piña coladas. (And gettin’ caught in the rain.)

    …or something like this:

    The XYZ Doohickey Company was founded in 1971, and has been providing quality doohickeys to the public ever since. Located in Gotham City, XYZ employs over 2,000 people and does all kinds of awesome things for the Gotham community.
