The facts about this case

• Client is from a country in South Asia.
• Spouse is on a J2 Visa.
• The couple has an elementary school aged child.

In this case there were a number of key factors based on the economical and political situation in the country, namely:

• political turbulence;
• economic crises;
• sharp inflation;
• humanitarian crisis;
• critical shortage of daily necessities;
• unavailability of medical care;
• unavailability of essential medicines;
• absence of clean water and food;
• infrastructure issues;
• lack of education.

All these factors would have an exceptionally negative effect on the child’s safety, health, education, well-being, development, and mental health and would create a situation of extreme hardship.

Here at the The Ranchod Law Group, we relied heavily on our ability to argue the case and document all these negative aspects and conditions the family would experience and endure.
