Our Services
Family Based Petitions (Green Cards Through Family)
We handle all family-based petitions and immigrant visas for your spouse, minor and adult children, parents and siblings, adjustment of status applications for applicants who are physically in the United States and consular processing for those abroad. We also assist with fiancé visas.
We specialize in complex family-based cases.
At times, your case is delayed, denied or your petition may be revoked for various reasons. For example, you may be an applicant who has aged out of the underlying family or employment petition and need advice on CSPA (Child Status Protection Act), or you have filed for divorce after a conditional green card and need to file a petition for removal of conditions with a waiver of joint filing to get your 10-year permanent residency.
In certain cases, your I-130 petition may be revoked due to the death of the petitioner, and you need to file for humanitarian reinstatement. We help with such requests.
If your case has been denied, we file motions to reconsider or motions to reopen. We analyze these scenarios very carefully to prepare new filings in cases that were previously denied, respond to a Notice of Intent to Deny (NOID), Notice of Intent to Revoke (NOIR), or Request for Further Evidence (RFE).
Employment-Based Petitions (Green Cards Through Employment)
Legal Permanent Residency (LPR) based on Extraordinary Ability (EB-1)
We help clients with extraordinary achievements in the sciences, arts, education, business or athletics self-petition for lawful permanent residency. Outstanding professionals and researchers
and multinational managers or executives can also qualify if they meet certain requirements.
LPR for Individuals with Advanced Degree or Exceptional Ability (EB-2)
We help clients with advanced degrees and or exceptional ability in their field self-petition and apply for permanent residency. This includes reviewing applicant’s eligibility for National Interest Waiver (NIW) to bypass the PERM process.
Green Cards for Skilled Workers, Professionals or Others (EB-3)
We work with employers to sponsor skilled workers, professionals and other non-skilled workers. We file the applications for permanent labor certification (PERM) with the U.S. Department of Labor, I-140 petitions for alien worker and applications to adjust status if the employee is in the United States. In case of an employee who resides abroad, we handle consular processing after the approval of the I-140.
Employment-Based Visas for Temporary Workers
We help prepare and file the following employment-based visas:
O-1 visas for individuals with extraordinary abilities in the sciences, education, business, or athletics (O-1A), as well as those in the arts, motion pictures or television industry (O-1B)
E-2 visas for investors from treaty countries
H-1B visas for workers in specialty occupations
L-1A and L-1B visas for managers, executives and those with specialized knowledge from foreign companies seeking to branch out in the U.S.
TN visas for qualified professionals from Canada and Mexico
Naturalization & Citizenship
We prepare and file complex naturalization applications (citizenship applications). We also appeal naturalization denials and respond to a Notice of Intent to Deny (NOID) and handle complex naturalization applications for those with a criminal history and other moral character issues.
Consular Processing
We provide full service to individuals and employees going through the immigrant visa process abroad. We prepare the DS-260 visa applications, file for expedited requests with the National Visa Center (NVC), communicate with U.S. embassies and consulates abroad and prepare you for your interview. In certain cases of unreasonable delay by the government agency, we file lawsuits or complaints in federal court (writs of mandamus) to expedite your matter.
Writ of Mandamus
A writ of mandamus is a powerful tool in immigration law used to compel a government agency
to perform a duty it is legally obligated to complete. This legal action can be vital for those facing delays in their immigration process. For instance, if you have been waiting an unreasonably long time for a response from USCIS on a petition or application that you have filed, a writ of mandamus may be your only solution.
Change of Status
We help clients change their visa status while they are physically in the United States. For example, if you are here on a visitor visa and decide to study at a college, university or another educational institution, we assist you in changing your visa from B-1/B-2 (Tourist) to an F-1 (Student) visa. Likewise, if you have an F-1 visa and after the completion of your studies, you decide to change your visa to a work visa, we assist you with this process.
Congressional Inquiries
We work very closely with your congressional representatives, senators and other elected officials who are expected to advocate for you before the Department of Homeland Security (DHS including USCIS), Department of State (DOS) and immigration court (EOIR). We believe in collaborative and collective efforts with them to resolve your case.
Inadmissibility Waivers
If you cannot adjust your status and get your permanent residency under certain circumstances such as unlawful presence, fraud or misrepresentation, criminal or health-related grounds, this means you may be inadmissible—unable to get your permanent residency. We prepare waivers of inadmissibility in such cases including I-601 and I-601A waivers, which if granted, allows you to adjust your status assuming you meet all other eligibility requirements.
Humanitarian Cases Such as Asylum, VAWA, Temporary Protected Status (TPS), DACA and PIP
We help victims of domestic violence and abuse in filing VAWA petitions. We also prepare and file DACA applications, applications for Humanitarian Parole, applications for Temporary Protected Status (TPS), and applications for Asylum or Withholding of Removal.
