Secure the future you deserve — with us, for you.
Because a system weaponized to deny justice requires dedicated, expert immigration legal advocacy.
Welcome to Parker Immigration Legal Advocacy Immigration
Immigration law is widely recognized—even by the Supreme Court—as one of the most complex areas of U.S. law. If you feel confused or overwhelmed, that’s not your fault. The rules are full of shifting traps and technicalities, and in today’s climate the danger is even greater. Under hostile policies, rules change mid-stream to justify the government’s preferred outcome, often with little regard for consistency, humanity, or the rule of law.
That is why having the right attorney is essential. Not a notario or unlicensed “consultant” who cannot legally practice law. And not a firm where a few attorneys oversee many paralegals and support staff with little training, leaving important details to slip through the cracks. Immigration law is too complex for generalists — you need a lawyer who specializes in this field, who personally takes responsibility for your case, and who has the experience to anticipate risks and build the right strategy.
At Parker Immigration Legal Advocacy, we built our practice on that principle. Our team combines skill, strategy, and integrity to stand with you against one of the most unforgiving systems in American law. Every case is handled with care and attention, because immigration law isn’t just about forms — it’s about people, families, and futures.
About Us
Our Story
Parker Immigration Legal Advocacy was founded because too many individuals with immigration cases lose them not for lack of merit, but because they lacked real representation. Time and again, we saw people arrive at nonprofit organizations and universities after already paying attorneys who took their money but failed to deliver. We also witnessed the damage caused by firms that put profit above people—where decisions were made not out of care or strategy, but at the expense of vulnerable clients.
In today’s climate, this harm is magnified. When the government changes the rules without warning or fairness, those navigating the immigration system cannot afford weak or self-interested representation. Our mission is to change that reality. We are committed to providing skilled, ethical, and client-centered advocacy so that no one has to face this unforgiving system alone.
Our Team
Our firm is rooted in service. Founder Parker Sheffy grew up in Texas in a family of teachers, where helping others was expected. That commitment carried him from teaching in the classroom, to shaping immigration policy in the U.S. Capitol, to building a practice dedicated to defending immigrant rights.
Over the years, Parker has guided families through petitions that kept loved ones together, represented asylum seekers fleeing persecution, and defended clients facing deportation in immigration court. He has taught immigration law at a leading law school and even filed motions before the U.S. Supreme Court — experiences that give our clients both deep legal knowledge and practical strategies that work.
What sets our firm apart is the recognition and trust earned across settings — from leading community workshops to litigating before federal appellate courts. That range of experience gives every client access to a depth of skill and perspective that few firms can offer.
Our Services
Immigration law isn’t just paperwork. Because many people have filled out forms before, there’s a false sense of security — and small mistakes can end up jeopardizing an entire case. Real advocacy goes far beyond filing: it’s about strategy, legal analysis, and anticipating how different parts of your life and history affect your options.
Every case is unique, and many involve more than one path to relief. Some also overlap with family or criminal law issues, which can dramatically change the outcome. We take the time to understand your story in full, identify risks and opportunities, and build a plan that maximizes protection and minimizes mistakes.
Our representation covers the full spectrum of immigration matters, including:
- Asylum
- VAWA, U Visas & T Visas – Relief for survivors of abuse, crime, and trafficking, ensuring protection and stability.
- Family-Based Immigration – Reuniting families through petitions, waivers, and adjustment of status.
- Employment-Based Visas
- Deportation Defense – Fighting removal before the Immigration Court
- Appeals & Motions – Challenging unjust denials and orders before the BIA, federal circuit courts, and through motions to reopen or reconsider.
- Naturalization & Citizenship
Because immigration status is often tied to family and criminal law, we also represent clients in related matters such as custody disputes, divorce, or criminal charges that directly affect immigration relief. Our integrated approach ensures no part of your case is overlooked.
With expertise and commitment, we cut through the most complex, politicized system to move you forward with confidence.
Shaping the Law. Defending Immigrants. Delivering Results.
