Benach Collopy believes in the American dream. We believe that on the other side of the immigration process there is a better life for you, and for your family. We believe that our experience, compassion, and know-how can help make your dream a reality. One morning in April of 2015, we had the honor of meeting Selamawit Chale for the first time.
She came to our office, broken, hurting, and terrified, but at the same time, her inner strength was palpable. We learned that Selam was once a bright and hopeful young woman, anxious to make a difference in the world and to contribute to her communities; however, traumatic events in her childhood, followed by years of emotional and physical abuse at the hands of her husband had silenced her.

Applying for Citizenship
Report
United States citizenship is the culmination of an immigrant's integration into American life. U.S. citizens can vote, hold certain public offices, petition for foreign relatives, and remain outside the U.S. for lengthy periods of time without fear of abandoning their residence. Also, importantly, a U.S. citizen may not be removed or denied entry into the U.S.
Asylum
Report
America's story begins with refugees fleeing religious oppression in England. Since the seventeenth century, this country has welcomed and sheltered those fleeing violence, repression, and a lack of freedom in their homelands. Although the process has undergone remarkable changes, U.S. law still affords refuge to the oppressed and persecuted and offers a chance to live a life of dignity and opportunity.
Deferred Action
Report
Deferred action has emerged as the tool of choice for the Department of Homeland Security to provide some form of status and stability for millions of immigrants. Benach Collopy attorneys have been using deferred action for over a decade to stop removals and obtain some relief for hundreds of deserving immigrants.
