Professor Victor Romero writes 'Everyday Law for Immigrants'
Thursday, December 11, 2008

Renowned legal scholar and law professor Victor C. Romero has authored a new guide on the U.S. immigration system for readers who are not lawyers. "Everyday Law for Immigrants," part of the Everyday Law Series by Paradigm Publishers, will hit store shelves on December 30.

"My modest hope is that the book will provide a clear and concise overview of the laws that most affect noncitizens living in the United States, from formal immigration rules that govern when noncitizens may enter and must leave the country, to other laws that affect immigrants' daily existence, from education to employment, for instance," said Romero.
