U Visa
Immigration relief for victims of certain crimes who have cooperated with law enforcement. Our team guides you through every step to protect your rights and your future.
Personal Injury
If you were injured due to someone else’s negligence, we fight to secure the compensation you deserve while protecting your immigration status throughout the process.
VAWA
Confidential immigration options for survivors of abuse by a U.S. citizen or permanent resident family member. You may be able to apply independently and safely.

Strategic solutions for overcoming immigration barriers such as unlawful presence or prior violations. We prepare strong waiver applications tailored to your case.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why should I choose The Cruz Law Office as my San Diego immigration
With years of experience and a deep commitment to the community, we provide expert legal representation from our San Diego and San Marcos offices. We specialize in complex cases like T-Visas and VAWA, offering compassionate, bilingual defense for families throughout California.
2. Am I eligible for a T Visa in San Diego?
You may qualify if you were forced into labor or other exploitation in the U.S. Our San Diego legal team can help you determine eligibility if you are willing to help investigators when safe and would face extreme hardship if removed.
3. Will applying for a T Visa put me at risk of deportation?
No. As your San Diego immigration attorneys, we ensure that once your petition is filed, USCIS does not deport you while it is pending. Approval grants lawful status for four years with options to extend.
4. Can I include my family in my immigration application?
Yes. Approved T-1 holders can apply for derivative visas for spouses and children. We have helped many families in San Diego and San Marcos stay together through this process.
5. How long does the process take and can I work in the meantime?
Cases typically take 12 to 36 months. However, our firm helps you request an interim work permit (Form I-765) so you can work legally in San Diego while your case is pending.
6. What is the difference between a T Visa and a U Visa?
T Visas are for victims of trafficking (labor/sexual exploitation), while U Visas are for victims of specific violent crimes. Our experts at both our San Diego and San Marcos locations will help you determine the best path for your specific situation.
7. How can I schedule an immigration consultation in San Diego or San Marcos?
Scheduling your consultation is easy. You can call our San Diego office at (877) 619-8472 or simply fill out our online contact form here on the website. We offer both in-person and remote appointments to fit your schedule. Our team is ready to provide the expert legal guidance you need to protect your future.
