About Us
Providing Transparent, Reliable Legal Counsel to
Individuals and Families
Est. 2012
With several years of experience, Attorney Hans J. Bremer felt a desire and a capability to do more for Providence’s large community of undocumented immigrants struggling to make ends meet and living in fear. He felt ready to take on his own practice, so he resigned from his position at a prestigious law firm in Boston.
He opened a small office in Providence, Rhode Island. He built a team to meet the growing demands of the ever-changing immigration policies and climate. Within two years, Attorney Bremer had a larger client base than he had ever imagined.
His client base grew beyond Rhode Island to include all of the United States. Undocumented Immigrants had found a trustworthy, reliable law firm where they could be heard.
