TAMPA, Fla. - TelAve -- TAMPA, FLORIDA,  — As federal courts strike down USCIS processing holds, Congress approves $72 billion in new immigration enforcement funding, and immigration courts accelerate deportations through mass "mega master" hearings, American Dream Law Office PLLC marks its 11th anniversary representing immigrants across Florida and the United States.

Founded in 2015 by attorney Ahmad Yakzan, the Temple Terrace-based firm has grown from a solo practice into a full-service immigration law office handling removal defense, crimmigration, family-based immigration, and asylum cases. The anniversary comes at one of the most turbulent moments in modern U.S. immigration law.

On June 5, a federal judge in Rhode Island ruled that USCIS policy memos placing processing holds on applications from approximately 40 countries were unlawful, ordering the agency to immediately resume adjudication. That same week, the Senate passed a reconciliation package allocating roughly $72 billion toward ICE operations — among the largest single immigration enforcement investments in U.S. history. Meanwhile, immigration courts from Virginia to California have begun conducting "mega master" hearings grouping more than 100 cases at once, a practice immigration attorneys have flagged as a serious due process concern. In Florida, Operation Tidal Wave has produced more than 10,000 arrests through a state-federal enforcement partnership that has deputized all 67 county sheriffs under 287(g) agreements.

"Eleven years ago, I started this firm because I believed every person deserved competent, aggressive legal representation regardless of where they were born," said Ahmad Yakzan, immigration attorney and founder of American Dream Law Office PLLC. "The landscape today is more challenging than ever — courts are overwhelmed, enforcement is at historic levels, and the rules keep changing. What hasn't changed is the need for immigrants to have a knowledgeable attorney in their corner who will fight for their rights at every stage."

Yakzan noted that the proliferation of mass deportation hearings underscores why legal representation has become not just important, but urgent. When cases are calendared alongside hundreds of others, unrepresented individuals face a near-certain risk of in absentia removal orders issued without meaningful review of their circumstances.

Since its founding, American Dream Law Office PLLC has assisted clients navigating removal proceedings, asylum claims, family petitions, and the intersection of criminal and immigration law — a specialty area known as crimmigration that has grown increasingly consequential as Florida's enforcement footprint expands.
