Re: help

There might be a way for you to obtain residency. We will need more information, so I suggest you schedule a consultation with a qualified immigration attorney. In the meantime, you can start gathering all documentation relating to your marriage and to any evidence of the abuse, like police reports and court documents, hospital records, etc. It is also important for you to be safe and seek the appropriate counseling. You can feel free to contact my office privately and in confidence so we can further discuss your options. I can also give you some good information regarding programs and resources available for victims of abuse. We also located in MA and offer free initial consultations to Law Guru users. Good luck!
