wildes & weinberg secures humanitarian parole for medical treatment

Managing Partner Michael Wildes and Litigation Group Chair Tudor Neagu are pleased to announce that the firm successfully secured a Humanitarian Parole on behalf of an Iranian client requiring medical treatment in the United States.

An Iranian family with significant health challenges won the diversity visa lottery in 2022. A mother and her young boy, who suffers from congenital clubfoot disorder, were able to immigrate to the United States. However, her husband, Esmaeil, and father to the child, was stuck in Iran due to red tape. To make matters worse, Esmaeil is battling stage III malignant melanoma. Wildes & Weinberg jumped into action, taking on this matter pro bono, and was able to preclear Esmaeil to board a flight to the United States. He was paroled on a humanitarian basis through the good graces of the Department of Homeland Security, and we were happy to welcome him to our office today. He will soon reunite with his wife and son on the West Coast, and he will commence cancer treatment at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center in Seattle. We wish this beautiful family all the best as they commence their life in the United States.
