Over the last 18 months, Bryan and a colleague at his firm have worked very hard on a pro bono case involving asylum. A woman who came to the United States for her education was married to a man from her home country. Her husband abused her and was deported back to their native country. From there, he threatened to kill her if she ever returned. Because she was only in the United States for her education, the Department of Homeland Security was requiring her to return to her home country even though she faced an immediate threat to her life. Bryan took up this case through one of his firm's pro bono initiatives to request asylum to protect her. This last week they got the judge's ruling and they won. What a difference they made in the life of this woman. Way to go Bryan.
Editors note: I am sure that I have several of the details wrong...I will let Bryan use editorial license to fix my posting.
