API Legal Outreach’s commitment to advancing the rights of immigrants is rooted in providing vital legal services for the diverse immigrant communities of the Greater Bay Area. API Legal Outreach has long been committed to immigrants’ rights and remains one of the few agencies providing direct legal services to immigrant victims of crime and their families. Our communities need more than just information about their rights: they need the expert legal representation that is critical to making those rights a reality. In 2013 alone, API Legal Outreach staff attorneys and panel of pro bono attorneys represented and counseled thousands of immigrants and their loved ones in immigration court, naturalization and adjustment hearings, and complex motions for relief for immigrants who had been abused by their citizen spouses, subjugated by human traffickers, or victimized by violent criminal activity such as attempted murder and rape.
