Davis Legal Center Celebrates Its First Year Anniversary Providing Immigration Legal Services
The Davis Legal Center (DLC) recently celebrated its one-year anniversary in July. It’s attorney and founder, Emil Dixon, would like to thank his clients and the community for making the first year a great success! Mr. Dixon opened the office in West Davis to provide immigration and landlord-tenant services to residents in the surrounding communities.
Since its grand opening, the DLC has provided local residents with free immigration and landlord-tenant law seminars. Most notably, the center partnered with International House Davis to provide a successful immigration seminar designed to help immigrants who came to the United States before their sixteenth birthdays obtain temporary legal status.
The DLC also developed partnerships with nonprofit legal services organizations, including the Catholic Legal Immigration Network’s Board of Immigration Appeals Pro Bono Project, to provide free legal representation to immigrants who could not afford an attorney. The center has stayed actively involved in pro bono work, and its efforts over the past year have brought numerous families together.
Due to the overwhelming support and need for immigration legal services, this anniversary brought a change in DLC’s practice. The center now solely provides immigration services. Mr. Dixon indicated that immigration law is one of the most complex areas of the law, so this change will allow him to better serve clients and to further expand the immigration services he provides. This change also allows the DLC to extend services beyond the local area, so its attorney can now serve immigration clients worldwide.
Mr. Dixon said, “We are excited for this change and look forward to another great year in Davis!”
