Kelmer Neves has 21 years of professional experience. He studied at Ashworth College, Columbia University, New York University and University of California and speaks English, Portuguese and Spanish. Kelmer immigrated from Cabo Frio, Rio de Janeiro to the United States in 1999. Due to a mistake by his immigration lawyer, he received a deportation order and was subsequently sought by the FBI to be deported. He consulted three lawyers and they all said his case had no solution and that he had to leave the country. It was then that Kelmer decided to study immigration law to fight for justice. His arduous legal battle lasted 15 years. His case reached the Supreme Court where it set a legal precedent(Neves Vs Holder). Today he is an American citizen and works helping immigrants in the United States. His story became a documentary and won three awards for best inspirational documentary in the United States and Europe. It inspired him to write the book entitled: "Impossible is an Opinion".
