Terms & Conditions

Absolutely not. At Pereira Law Firm, we believe in keeping families together. We work diligently to ensure our clients can adjust their status and obtain their papers right here, without the need to leave the country.

You may be eligible if you have experienced a difficult or abusive relationship with a spouse who is a U.S. Citizen or Legal Permanent Resident. Additionally, parents who have suffered in their relationship with a U.S. Citizen son or daughter (over the age of 21) may also apply.

A divorce will not negatively impact your VAWA case, provided we file the process within two years of the divorce being finalized. However, it is crucial that you do not remarry until your case is fully closed and approved. For cases based on abuse by a child, marital status is generally not an issue.

No. A police report is not required to begin your VAWA case with us.

The U Visa is designed for victims of specific crimes who have suffered mental or physical abuse and are willing to help law enforcement. To qualify, you must:

Be a victim of a qualifying crime under U.S. law.
Demonstrate that you suffered physical or mental abuse as a result of the crime.
Cooperate with authorities in the investigation or prosecution of the crime.
Possess a U Certification and have remained in the country since the event.
Note: In certain cases, victims of substantial human rights violations within the U.S. may also apply.

The U Visa offers significant stability and protection:

Legal Status: Protection from deportation while the process is pending and for an initial four-year period.
Work Permit: Authorization to work while the process is pending and while in U status.
Path to Residency: Eligibility to apply for a Green Card after maintaining U status for a certain period (meeting specific requirements).
Family Inclusion: The ability to petition for qualifying family members (spouse, children, parents).
Access to Services: Eligibility for certain social services and victim assistance programs.

Attorney Pereira can help include your direct family members (spouse, parents, and children under 21) as beneficiaries in your petition, prioritizing the safety and unity of your family nucleus.

The T Visa is the best option for individuals who have been victims of labor abuse or trafficking. This includes situations involving forced labor, wage theft (being paid less than promised), hostile working conditions, or discrimination based on immigration status.

Yes. Once your T Visa is approved, you are generally eligible for employment authorization. Furthermore, your direct family members (spouse and children) may also qualify as beneficiaries under your petition.

Yes, your immediate family (spouse and children) can qualify under your petition, as the law prioritizes the safety of the entire family unit.

A personal injury is any physical or emotional harm caused by another party’s negligence or recklessness. If you have been harmed due to someone else’s carelessness, you have the legal right to file a demand for negligence.

Traffic Accidents: We provide expert legal counsel for traffic accidents across all 50 states.
Workplace & Slip-and-Fall: specifically within Washington State, we can help you find solutions for workplace accidents or slip-and-fall incidents on commercial properties.

If you are injured due to someone else’s negligence, you are entitled to compensation. This settlement generally covers:}

Medical expenses
Lost wages/income
Pain and suffering
Material/property damage resulting from the accident

No. You do not need to be a legal resident or have a Social Security number to file a claim. Anyone injured by a third party has the right to fight for their health and compensation, regardless of their immigration status.

We will conduct a thorough investigation and fight for you. Ultimately, Attorney Pereira’s goal is to win your case and secure the compensation you deserve, even if liability is complex.

That is not a problem. We will handle the coordination of your medical treatment to ensure you get the care you need without paying anything out of your own pocket upfront.

Our team will ensure that your medical treatment is coordinated in a way that is most convenient for you and your schedule.
