Boston Attorney Helping Clients With Delays, Detention & Denials

Holding the Government Accountable

In some unfortunate cases, the federal government delays processing immigration cases, denies people something to which they are entitled or improperly places individuals in detention. In fact, our government periodically adopts practices or policies that do not conform to the law.

My name is Vard R. Johnson. At my office in Boston, I help people hold the government responsible for its actions. Regardless of the government's specific transgression in your case, I will work to protect your rights. Trust my 45 years of legal experience to work for you.

Massachusetts Immigration Lawyer

As your attorney, it is my responsibility to ensure immigration law is upheld. I have handled several immigration cases in which the government has improperly:

  • Delayed the processing of green card, visa or citizenship applications
  • Held individuals in immigrant detention
  • Incorrectly denied green cards, asylum, citizenship or visas

If the federal government has acted improperly in your situation, I can help. I will challenge the delay, detention or denial. I have no reluctance in protecting your interests in the U.S. District Court.

Recent cases: Tang v. Chertoff, 493 F.  Supp. 2d 148 (D. Mass. 2007) and Shalan v. Chertoff, 2006 WL 42143; 2006 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 253 (D. Mass. 2006).
