Representatives from Attorney General Andrew Cuomo's Office held a public forum on the topic of Immigration Services Fraud and the Unauthorized Practice of Law at the Bronx Lebanon Hospital on Tuesday, June 30th.

Roberto Lebron, Assistant Attorney General from Cuomo’s Harlem Office, along with Community Liaison from Cuomo’s Office Famod Konneh, gave a presentation to over forty individuals on how the Attorney General’s Office can aid in the protection of immigrants from fraudulent service providers, criminals, scams, and other forms of immigration fraud.

The presentation was the first of its kind tailored specifically for the Mandingo-speaking community, and was translated in English and in Mandingo.

This event was co-hosted by Assembly Member Vanessa L. Gibson and The Organization of New York Liberian Mandingo (ONYLMA).
