Led by acclaimed attorney Lorena Rivas, the firm has rapidly become a beacon of hope for families facing the complexities of the U.S. immigration system.

Deportation Defense and Litigation
One of the firm’s core strengths is Deportation Defense. When individuals are detained or placed in removal proceedings, the attorneys at Rivas & Associates fight aggressively to keep them in the United States. They are skilled in:
- Immigration Court Representation: defending clients before immigration judges, seeking relief through cancellation of removal, asylum, or bond redeterminations.
- Appeals: challenging unjust decisions at the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) and federal circuit courts.
- Crimmigration: addressing the intersection of criminal and immigration law to minimize the deportation risks associated with criminal charges.
Humanitarian and Family Services
Beyond defense, the firm excels in Humanitarian Visas and family reunification. They have extensive experience assisting victims of crime and domestic violence through U Visas and VAWA petitions, offering a path to safety and legal status. Rivas & Associates also guides families through the process of bringing loved ones to the U.S. or adjusting status for those already here. Their holistic approach often includes connecting clients with other community resources, ensuring that their legal victory is supported by personal stability.
A Voice for the Community
Rivas & Associates is more than a law firm; it is a platform for advocacy. Lorena Rivas is a frequent speaker on immigration issues and a staunch defender of immigrant rights in the media and the legislature. The firm’s attorneys are fluent in Spanish, eliminating language barriers and ensuring clear communication. Whether you are seeking citizenship, fighting to stay with your family, or looking for a fresh start, Rivas & Associates offers the skilled, empathetic legal counsel necessary to navigate the path to the American Dream.
