Minnesota, particularly the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area, is home to a significant and growing Arab American community. The state has become a major destination for Somali refugees, creating one of the largest Somali populations outside Africa.
The Twin Cities area hosts substantial Somali, Iraqi, and Yemeni populations, many arriving through refugee resettlement programs. The Cedar-Riverside neighborhood of Minneapolis, sometimes called "Little Mogadishu," is the heart of Somali life in America.
Beyond the Somali community, Minnesota hosts Arab immigrants from across the Middle East, including Iraqis, Yemenis, and Palestinians. The state's reputation for welcoming refugees has made it a destination for families fleeing conflict.

Testimonials
What Minnesota clients say about our Arabic-speaking lawyers
Real reviews from Arab American families who found Arabic-speaking attorneys through our Minnesota network.
“The Somali community here is large but finding a lawyer who understood our specific situation took time. My attorney had worked with Somali refugees before. She knew what evidence to gather, how to document conditions in Mogadishu. Asylum granted in 2023.”

“Needed TPS fast when Yemen was designated. My lawyer filed within the first month of the designation. Work permit arrived six weeks later. She made everything so straightforward.”
Halima A.

“Hit-and-run on 35W. Driver took off. I had uninsured motorist coverage but didn't realize it. My lawyer went after my own policy and got me $69,500 for a herniated disc. Would've gotten nothing if I'd tried to handle it myself.”
Jamal K.

“Opened a clothing boutique. First business. Had no idea about LLC vs S-corp, quarterly estimates, sales tax. My attorney walked me through everything. Two years in and I haven't had a single tax surprise.”
Amina M.

“My wife is a US citizen but she works abroad half the year. Made documenting our relationship complicated. Lots of questions about why we don't live together full-time. My lawyer prepared a detailed explanation with evidence. Approved first try.”
Hassan N.

“My green card was expiring and I wanted to apply for citizenship but didn't have time before it expired. My attorney filed both applications strategically so I could travel for work without issues. Both approved, now I'm a citizen. She managed the whole timeline perfectly.”
