Practice Areas
Our office has extensive experience in business immigration, including:
- Trade and treaty investors visas
- Extraordinary Ability immigrant petitions
- International transfer of executives and managers

Our firm constantly provides employers and employees with the most appropriate immigration strategies to achieve positive results. We represent businesses petitioning on behalf of employees, as well as individuals and families undergoing the U.S. immigration process through company petitions.
Permanent residence based on family relationships falls into two categories. The first is immediate relatives, for which there is no quota or waiting list. Immediate relatives include unmarried children under the age of 21, spouses, and parents of United States citizens. Our office has experience processing all aspects of family petitions within the United States (Adjustment of Status) and through consular processing when beneficiary is outside the United States. We are familiar with inadmissibility waivers that include health issues, criminal charges and previous immigration violations.
Our office has substantial experience successfully naturalizing individuals through proper legal channels. We regularly assist in the following citizenship matters:
- USCIS Form N – 400, Application for Naturalization
- Form N – 600, Application for Certificate of Citizenship
- Derivative citizenship
In addition, we constantly advise clients about all naturalization and citizenship matters, including derivative citizenship issues, marriage adjustments, removal proceedings, family-based residency or status, and other immigration law matters, including inquiries about criminal charges.
Removal proceedings are administrative proceedings to determine an individual’s removability under United States immigration law. Removal proceedings are typically conducted in Immigration Court by an immigration judge. The United States Government consistently seeks to place aliens, including those who are lawfully admitted as permanent residents, into removal proceedings. The reasons to commence proceedings against an individual include: criminal charges, visa overstay, unlawful entry, etc. In many cases, an applicant can seek relief from removal, i.e., deportation. Said relief includes a myriad of waivers that include asylum, Cancellation of Removal, Adjustment of Status, etc. Our office represents legal permanent residents, immigrants and visitors who are currently in removal proceedings or are at risk for removal from the U.S. Our experience provides a deep understanding of the deportation process taking into consideration the constant changes in the immigration arena.
An immigration waiver is required when an individual has a specific immigration violation in his/her record. If an immigration officer (in the United States or abroad) determines that the person is “inadmissible” to the United States, they require a waiver. The same process occurs if a green card holder is subject to criminal penalties in the United States: then the government determines if a person is deportable due to criminal/immigration violations.
