The Experience of Immigrants in DC Courts

Topics:
  • Immigration

Recent events have frightened many immigrants about interacting with the justice system. And advocates who work with immigrants increasingly need to learn about how to protect our clients from immigration enforcement and navigate the DC courts in this new, perilous environment.

We'll discuss these concerns and how to handle them with two immigration experts: Katie D'Adamo Guevara (Immigration Attorney, DC Public Defender Service) and Susannah Volpe (Managing Attorney, Ayuda).

For those who cannot attend in person, we'll have a video and other helpful information online later this summer.

And thanks to Mayer Brown for its hospitality and technical expertise!

This program is co-sponsored with the Courts, Lawyers & Administration of Justice Section of the D.C. Bar.
