Attorneys from Bend Immigration Group will discuss a range of changes in Immigration Law from the current Administration’s change to the Public Charge Rule, proposed changes to Asylum Law, the Remain in Mexico policy, the Supreme Court’s decision on the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, and the impact of COVID-19 on the processing of applications and petitions with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, the closure of Non-Detained Immigration Courts, and the worldwide suspension on routine visa services at U.S. Consulates.

Callie Killebrew, Kendra Jimenez Baughman, Erin Carter, and Micaela Guthrie are four attorneys based in Central Oregon specializing in immigration law. Together they form Bend Immigration Group. All four speak Spanish fluently and are committed to working with Central Oregon’s Latino and immigrant populations, including many DACA recipients and mixed-status families. Their work focuses on family-based immigration, asylum, humanitarian requests, and removal defense.
