' , .. . SDVLP recently helped a foster child, who was born abroad to U.S. citizen-parents, to obtain U.S. citizenship. As the child of U.S. citizens, he qualified for legal status, but his parents struggled to properly care for him, and failed to complete the necessary paperwork. The child's parents also failed to obtain a birth c...ertificate for the child, and he later entered foster care with no identification. Thankfully, volunteer attorney John Edson, and his legal assistant, Nicole Lautzenheizer, of Sheppard Mullin, stepped up to assist this child. John and Nicole worked very hard to gather the evidence necessary to support the child's application for a certificate of citizenship. The process was long and difficult, but John and Nicole never gave up on the child. Over a year later, the child was officially granted U.S. citizenship, and is on a path to a brighter future.

' , . SDVLP recently helped a sole proprietor whose bathtub repair business was devastated by the pandemic. His business had come to a standstill, and his applications for federal government loan assistance had been denied. He reached out to SDVLP's COVID-19 Small Business Brief Legal Advice Clinic for help with understan...ding available loan and grant programs that could help him preserve his livelihood during these challenging times. Bradley Birchfield, of Cooley LLP, volunteered to help this client, counseling him about additional grant and loan programs provided by federal, state, and local governments. Brad advised our client about the requirements of each program, and the specific application procedures. Thanks to Brad, this client secured the funding necessary to keep his business afloat. Our client expressed his deep gratitude for Brad's help, explaining that, "This is a great service." Brad "helped me find grants for my small business. Now I'm able to stay in business and I don't have to close."
