Recent developments have shown that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and Department of Labor have substantially stepped up their efforts in worksite enforcement, including increased audits of I-9 and H-1B Public Access files. Our Immigration Law Group will counsel your business on H-1B Public Access file and Form I-9 compliance, mandatory record-keeping, and E-Verify enrollment requirements for those who voluntarily enroll, as well as for those who are required to enroll, in the E-Verify program.

In addition to our full service U.S. immigration practice, our Immigration Law Group regularly assists our clients in facilitating global business travel and obtaining temporary work and permanent resident visas abroad. In this regard, we offer a single point of contact to a network of vetted immigration counsel whereby our firm maintains direct contact with the individual and his/her employer while maintaining careful oversight of all transactions to ensure they are performed timely and in the most cost-effective manner.

With our wealth of experience in business immigration law issues, we can assure your business that our Immigration Law Group is fully equipped to handle the most complex and sophisticated immigration law matters. We will provide you the advice as to most feasible or practical non-immigration classification that should be pursued for a particular individual; and assist in formulating a plan of employment (short and/or long term) so as to accommodate the needs of the employer and/or the employee, as the case may be.

Family Immigration

Our family immigration practice is focused on the reunification of families. We help our clients to determine which family visa preferences are most applicable to the client's situation and proceed accordingly. We handle all family-based visa applications involving United States citizens sponsoring spouses, children or other family members to legally come to the United States.

In addition, we secure visas for fiancés of American citizens, as well as for family members of legal permanent residents. We also process naturalization applications for legal permanent residents (residents with green cards).
The practice of Immigration Law is a highly complex area of law - due largely to the fact that the immigration laws themselves are intricate and undergo changes on a regular basis.

Credibility and reputation are key ingredients for success at the administrative level. Our experience, reputation and solid client base are the foundation for the ongoing success of our Immigration Law Group. With over 25 years of experience in practicing Immigration Law, our firm is equipped to handle the most complex and sophisticated business and family immigration law matters.

We look forward to the opportunity to provide you with both short and long-term immigration guidance. Whether it be initial filing options or strategies regarding employment-based sponsorship issues (e.g., feasible alternatives to the labor certification (PERM) process, EB-2 vs. EB-3, changing jobs, layoffs, DOL inspections, ICE raids) or issues of family sponsorship (e.g., fiancé visa vs. marriage-based visa, divorce), we are prepared to address your most pressing concerns related to employment or family immigration status.
