Ideally, we would review topics such as: * How you prepare an asylum case from intake through the merits hearing. * How you organize evidence. * How you prepare declarations. * How you build an exhibit packet. * Country conditions research. * Corroborating evidence. * Preparing witness packets. * EOIR filing requirements. * Common mistakes to avoid. * Attorney expectations for a strong asylum package.
