VISA DESPITE DENIAL

Romulo Carrera was denied a visa by the U.S. Embassy and also denied a "waiver" by the INS, after doctors reported he had "mental disorder," based on cigarette burns he made on his abdomen during a bar-bet with a drinking buddy. Atty. Michael J. Gurfinkel handled the appeal of Carrera’s case, and won a rare reversal of the denial. The entire Carrera family arrived in the U.S. just two weeks before his son's 21st birthday, and was reunited with family members after 12 years of separation.
