Understanding Immigration Law
After
the events of 9-11, concern for the safety of American citizens caused a flurry
of legislation that has complicated the immigration process. Those from other
countries who want to visit, work or live in America often find themselves
faced with difficult hurdles that must be overcome in order to satisfy
immigration requirements. American companies that seek to employ foreign workers
have also been impacted by the sweeping changes and the restructuring that has
occurred since 9-ll. Because immigration laws are constantly evolving, it’s
important to have an advocate in your corner.
The USCIS (U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services) is one of the primary
U.S. government agencies that oversees legal immigration into the United
States. One of the most meaningful protections offered by the USCIS is the
right to be represented by a qualified attorney when submitting petitions or
applications to the agency. This is a right no immigrant, or company employing
immigrants, should ignore. Appropriate legal representation may prevent costly
errors.
As a hands-on immigration lawyer, I am genuinely immersed in the system and
take pride in staying abreast of emerging trends and changes to immigration
laws. A frequent review of all USCIS and Department of Labor rules, regulations
decisions, position papers and memoranda is just one way that I continually
broaden my perspective, enabling a fresh approach for every case. I best serve
my clients by remaining informed and by practicing law within the system each
and every day. Immigration law is my specialty and my focus, and it is my
dedication to the process that brings competence to the table and comfort to
you during immigration procedures.
