The most commonly spoken non-English languages in the city are Burmese, Karen, Tigrinya, Amharic, Somali, Pashto, Dari, Arabic, Swahili, Kinyarwanda, Vietnamese, and Nepali, with concentrations in neighborhoods including the Clarkston corridor, downtown Decatur, Oakhurst, Druid Hills, Avondale Estates, and Scottdale.

Our Decatur clients span immigration attorneys and pro-bono asylum counsel partnering with the International Rescue Committee, New American Pathways, and Catholic Charities of Atlanta, HR teams at Emory Healthcare and Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, credentialing offices at Agnes Scott College and Emory University, and individuals navigating green-card, naturalization, work-visa, and student-visa cases on their own.
