In the wake of several developments in U.S. immigration reform, the Consulate General of Saint Lucia in New York will be hosting an open forum on Thursday, November 19, 2015, from 7:00 p.m. at Saint Lucia House, 438 E 49th Street, Brooklyn, New York.

The Forum will feature Saint Lucian attorney Janice S.

In addition, she will provide details on Deferred Action of Childhood Arrival (DACA).


Ms. Edwards has roots in the towns of Laborie and Vieux Fort, Saint Lucia, and is widely known as a conscientious and compassionate legal advocate. She regularly counsels clients in a variety of areas including immigration, family, and matrimonial law. She is licensed to practice in the State of New York, as well as in the United States District Court for the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York.
