Helping Survivors of Human Trafficking Obtain T Visas
The T Visa provides a pathway to legal status for survivors of severe human trafficking who have been forced into labor or commercial sex and are physically present in the U.S. due to trafficking. The T Visa not only protects survivors but also helps law enforcement agencies bring traffickers to justice.
At Bean, Lloyd, Mukherji, & Taylor, LLP, we recognize the unique challenges faced by survivors of human trafficking. Our experienced attorneys are committed to guiding you through the T Visa process, ensuring your rights are protected and helping you secure the protection and relief you deserve.
Eligibility for T Visas
You may be eligible for a T Visa if you:
- Are a victim of a severe form of human trafficking, such as forced labor, involuntary servitude, or commercial sex.
- Are physically present in the United States because of trafficking. This includes if you are unable to return to your home country due to trauma endured from the trafficking.
- Have complied with reasonable requests from law enforcement to assist in the investigation or prosecution of trafficking (unless you were under 18 at the time of the trafficking or if you cannot cooperate due to trauma).
- Would suffer extreme hardship if returned to your home country.
We often work with law enforcement and other agencies to gather the necessary evidence and ensure your cooperation is appropriately documented. Additionally, we help you compile the evidence needed to demonstrate your eligibility for the T Visa while protecting your rights throughout the process.
