Today, many temporary and humanitarian programs face a fragile, uncertain future. HELP can assist individuals and employers trying to find viable alternative options. Our long-standing support for business immigration can help you and your employees determine how humanitarian pathways interact with employment-based programs—and whether an employer-sponsored work visa is an appropriate and attainable solution that can place affected employees on more solid immigration footing.

Humanitarian and evolving
legal pathways (HELP)
Navigating humanitarian options during times of crisis or rapid change requires competent—and compassionate—immigration support.
Since 2021, Fragomen has been at the forefront of our clients’ responses to the humanitarian crises around the world. Today, our Humanitarian and Evolving Legal Pathways (HELP) Practice Group assists employers and individuals facing immigration crises, humanitarian changes, and related challenges. We advise on asylum, DACA, parole, and Temporary Protected Status (TPS) and specialize in how to move people out of danger and into more durable statuses.
Our team of attorneys and professionals cover every facet of humanitarian immigration law. We understand how humanitarian pathways interact with employment-based, family-based, and global options, which allows HELP to provide comprehensive counsel on viable immigration options based on individualized circumstances in the United States and around the world.
Preparing for
the Potential
End of DACA
The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program is currently in a vulnerable position. The DACA program has been challenged in the courts and could end soon.
If you employ DACA recipients, or believe you might, now is the time to prepare. Our HELP Practice Group will get you up to speed on the possible cancellation of DACA and assist with identifying possible alternatives for the "Dreamers" in your workforce.

KEY CONTACTS
Many employers are unaware by how many of their employees are on temporary pathways and could benefit from information and assistance, especially as policies and programs shift. We help employers to understand potential risks, minimize unexpected workforce disruptions, and offer guidance to assist employees.
Workforce Insights
We can work with your company or organization to analyze the scale of the need and develop the right support model—from individual consultations to customized programs aimed at affected individuals to full representation on complex matters.
Employee (and Employer) Peace of Mind
No other humanitarian immigration practice offers you the breadth, experience or capacity that Fragomen provides. Our global reach means that clients can benefit from knowledge of humanitarian and resettlement options that exist in other countries and jurisdictions.
A Unique Service
Humanitarian immigration law is a challenging discipline that requires experience, sensitivity, cultural competence, and dedicated resources. Our team has a vast range of expertise in humanitarian immigration relief derived from years of experience in the legal, governmental, and non-profit arenas responsible for these types of services and adjudications.
Deep Training in Critical Disciplines
We’re proud of our firm’s unstinting dedication to pro bono work and the relationships we’ve forged with partner organizations. But multiple crises worldwide have overwhelmed an already fragile pro bono infrastructure, reducing effectiveness and response time. Our professionals will work within your budget to close the gaps and offer holistic options.
