A Georgia Special Immigrant Juvenile Status Attorney Who Helps Families

Special Immigrant Juvenile Status (SIJS) is a type of immigrant status that can help certain undocumented minors a way to gain lawful status. It is designed for those who have been abused, neglected or abandoned by one or both parents. I am Jody A. Miller, and I can help undocumented children and their parents living in the Atlanta area.

I have more than 30 years of experience, serving Fulton County and the surrounding counties. I am committed to helping you through complex family law and immigration matters with a friendly and knowledgeable approach. I combine family law with immigration law knowledge to protect the rights of vulnerable, undocumented minors.

What Is Special Immigrant Juvenile Status?

SIJS is a critical option for vulnerable children seeking safety and stability in the U.S. The federal government created this status to help children who cannot reunite with one or both parents due to abuse, neglect or abandonment. While obtaining SIJS does not automatically grant lawful permanent residency, it is a significant step toward that goal.

The Importance Of Having An Atlanta Lawyer

A child does not need a parent or legal guardian to apply for SIJS. However, having a lawyer can mean the difference between the court granting or denying SIJS. As your attorney, I can guide you through the petition process, completing the complex documents efficiently and accurately. I have a successful history of handling sensitive juvenile law and immigration cases, including representing minors before immigration courts.
