Protecting Your Right to Stay in the United States

If you or your loved one is facing deportation, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Removal proceedings can tear families apart and jeopardize everything you’ve built. At AB Legal Consult, we help individuals in Lynchburg, VA and surrounding communities understand their legal options and take action to protect their future in the U.S.

Led by Attorney Akosua Owusua Owusu-Banahene, our firm represents clients before the Arlington Immigration Court, the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA), and in ICE detention centers across Virginia. We are committed to delivering strategic, compassionate, and fast-moving deportation defense to immigrants and families across Central and Southwest Virginia.

Full-Service Deportation Defense in Lynchburg

Removal cases are complex and emotionally charged. Our firm works closely with each client to create a tailored legal strategy designed to stop deportation and pursue lasting relief. We handle:

Asylum & Withholding of Removal: If you’re fleeing violence, persecution, or fear returning to your country of origin, we can help you seek protection through asylum or other humanitarian relief.
Cancellation of Removal: Whether you’re a green card holder or undocumented individual with strong ties to the U.S., this form of relief may allow you to stay and adjust your status.
Bond Hearings & ICE Detention Representation: If you or your loved one is detained, often at Farmville Detention Center, we act quickly to request bond and fight for your release.
Waivers for Inadmissibility or Deportability: Prior immigration or criminal issues don’t always mean automatic deportation. We help you apply for waivers that could eliminate these legal barriers.
Motions to Reopen or Reconsider: If you missed a hearing, received an order in error, or have new evidence, we can petition the court to reopen your case.
BIA Appeals: If an immigration judge issued an unfavorable ruling, we can file an appeal to the Board of Immigration Appeals, advocating for a second chance.

At AB Legal Consult, we understand the urgency of removal proceedings and we’re prepared to respond with the dedication and experience your case deserves.

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.
