Immigration Law

Family-based Immigration

If you are a U.S. citizen or a Permanent Resident we can help you bring your family members to live in the U.S. as Permanent Residents (Green Card holders). We file the initial benefits application with the U.S. Citizens and Immigration Services (USCIS) for your family members and when approved, we assist with consular processing of the appropriate visa for entry into the U.S.

If your family member is already in the U.S., we file the necessary petition with USCIS, which when approved will make the family member eligible for the Green Card by applying for Adjustment of Status to Permanent Resident.

Employment-based Immigration

We help companies and other employers to obtain the proper immigration status for their foreign citizen employees to work in the U.S.  Below is an overview of the employment-based visas (immigration status) we process for clients.
