A high school teacher/administrator here on a j1 visa was terminated before his contract expired. He believes the termination was wrongful and would like to pursue litigation against his employer (who was the sponsor of his j1 visa). Is there any legitimate way to extend his stay past the 30 day grace period? Also his wife and child are here on j2 visas. They have citizenships in different countries and leaving the US within 30 days will require them to separate their family since they cannot get visas to each other's country within the 30 day period.

You can try to find a new J-1 sponser if you haven't used up the full term granted you by your J-1 visa. J-1 visa are complicated you need to consult with a lawyer. Are you on an internship after completion of your education or a cultural exchange or some other position?
