The Harvard Immigration and Refugee Clinical Program offers pro-bono immigration services to the Greater Boston community. We currently do intakes through our community partnerships with Greater Boston Legal Services, MGH Chelsea, City Life/Vida Urbana, and the Somerville Sanctuary Steering Committee.

We also represent members of the Harvard community through our Harvard Representation Initiative. If you are a Harvard student, staff, or faculty member who has immigration-related concerns, please contact HRI to schedule a free appointment with an attorney by emailing hri@law.harvard.edu or calling 617-495-6648.

Crimmigation Student Voices

So much of law school is theoretical. The opportunity to apply the knowledge we learned in Phil's Crimmigration class to an actual case was invaluable -- and easier said than done."
Mike Ewart '18


[Crimmigration is] a really complicated area of law - combining state, federal, and administrative - so the day-to-day work is intellectually interesting."
Emma Scott '16

HIRC Student Voices

"Participating in HIRC was one of the most enriching experiences of my time at HLS. My work at the clinic taught me firsthand how I could use my legal education to empower others and inspired me to pursue a career in immigration law. Even a few years out of law school, I often turn to the professors and attorneys at HIRC for advice and direction."
G. Sussan Lee '15

HIRC Student Voices

"Having clinical instructors like Sabi Ardalan and Phil Torrey and seeing how they interact with clients, watching the amount of respect they have for everyone and how patient they are - they're phenomenal people to learn how to lawyer from."
Mana Azarmi '17
