James

I came into the country from the Caribbean. Married a man I had two children for. He applied for permanent residency for me. During the processing of my application, he became very violent towards me. When my permanent residency application was completed, and he was called to come and pick it up from the Immigration office, he told them he had decided to withdraw the sponsorship. He ended up leaving me for another woman. I could not work and could not pay the rent. I was evicted with nowhere to go. My children and I were homeless. That was my condition when I entered Ms. Manafa’s office. She immediately got to work. She called the women shelters and got me a place there for me and my children. She then commenced family law proceeding against my husband and obtained custody, child support and spousal support for me and my children. Finally, she applied for me to stay in Canada based on Humanitarian grounds and was successful. I cannot thank her enough. Joan is great!

Ms. Manafa is a great lawyer! I am from South America. I met a woman who has an only child with special needs, from another relationship. This made the spousal sponsorship application to be very complicated. Ms. Manafa was able to successfully navigate the process and obtained a permanent residence visa for my wife. Thank you, Ms. Manafa, you are the best.
