Protecting Your Future with Experienced Legal Advocacy

At AB Legal Consult, we understand that facing deportation or removal proceedings can turn your life upside down. Whether you’re a longtime resident, a recent arrival, or a parent worried about your children’s future, the fear and uncertainty of removal can be overwhelming. That’s why our firm is committed to standing with individuals and families in Alexandria, VA and the surrounding Northern Virginia region, providing focused, strategic legal defense when it matters most.

Led by experienced immigration attorney Akosua Owusua Owusu-Banahene, AB Legal Consult has built a reputation for tenacious advocacy and compassionate counsel in even the most complex deportation cases. We are deeply familiar with the immigration courts, including proceedings at the Arlington Immigration Court, and we guide our clients through every stage—from initial hearings to appeals before the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA).

Comprehensive Deportation Defense for a Range of Cases

Removal proceedings can be triggered for many reasons—some as simple as a missed court date, others involving serious legal challenges. At AB Legal Consult, we tailor every case strategy to your specific circumstances, offering knowledgeable representation in:

Asylum & Withholding of Removal: For individuals fleeing persecution in their home countries, we present detailed, evidence-based claims to support protection under U.S. asylum laws.
Cancellation of Removal: Whether you’re a lawful permanent resident or undocumented individual with long-standing ties to the U.S., we advocate for relief based on your history, family ties, and community presence.
Bond Hearings: For clients detained by ICE, we fight to secure bond so they can reunite with loved ones and prepare their defense from outside detention.
Waivers of Inadmissibility & Deportability: We pursue waivers for clients with past immigration violations or criminal convictions, helping them overcome barriers to remaining in the U.S.
Motions to Reopen or Reconsider: If your case was denied in error or new evidence has emerged, we help you petition for a second chance.
Appeals before the BIA: We prepare persuasive appellate briefs and oral arguments to challenge unjust removal orders and adverse decisions.

Each client’s case is personal to us. No two situations are the same, and we refuse to apply one-size-fits-all strategies to life-altering legal battles.

I had the privilege of working with Akosua on an EB-1 visa application, and I cannot speak highly enough of her professionalism, expertise, and dedication throughout the entire process.

From the initial consultation, Akosua demonstrated a deep understanding of the EB-1 category and laid out a clear strategy that aligned perfectly with my career background.

She was meticulous in reviewing the credentials, guiding me through the documentation process, and crafting a compelling petition that showcased the qualifications in the best possible light.
What stood out most was Akosua’s attention to detail and her commitment to excellence — every letter, form, and exhibit was handled with precision.

Her communication was prompt and thorough, and she always made time to answer my questions and keep me informed. Thanks to her skill and hard work, my EB-1 petition was approved without a Request for Evidence, which speaks volumes about the strength and clarity of the case she prepared.

If you are considering an EB-1 application, I wholeheartedly recommend Akosua. Her legal acumen, work ethic, and genuine care for her clients set her apart.
