Family Based Immigration
If you have immigrated to the United States and have a family, it might be possible for members of your family to immigrate to the US with you. It will be especially easy for immediate family members to enter the US.
Deportation and Removal
There are times when a person needs a deportation lawyer to protect the rights of their immigration status. A good deportation attorney is passionate about what they do and specializes in the field they practice law and provides an incalculably valuable service to the community.
Employment Based Immigration
In the United States, all employers are required to confirm that employees are here legally and able to work in this country. Many employers ignore this law and often hire immigrant employees for cheaper labor.
Naturalization
The basics of obtaining citizenship via naturalization can be a complicated process. And simply said, it is a process wherein a non-citizen voluntarily becomes a citizen of America. It also provides new U.S. citizens the opportunity to show their allegiance to the United States and are entitled to its protection as well as exercising their rights.
