Practice Overview
Our practice is focused primarily on employment based and family based immigration.
We represent clients seeking temporary (nonimmigrant) or permanent (immigrant, or “green card”) status in the U.S. based on offers of employment (and in some cases without an offer of employment on the basis of superior qualifications), or based on a relationship to a U.S. citizen or Lawful Permanent Resident. However, we also represent clients seeking advice with any variety of temporary visa, retention of Lawful Permanent Resident status, naturalization, certificates of citizenship, I-9 employment eligibility verification and virtually any other type of immigration matter with the exception of complex asylum or deportation matters.
Employment Based Immigration
Having handled thousands of cases during the past 25 years we have acquired in depth experience with a variety of employers, from large multinational companies to startup ventures to family owned businesses, in such diverse industries as biotechnology, software, computers, electronics, engineering, financial services, telecommunications, manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, architecture, law, and management consulting.
We have developed special expertise in the immigration needs of academic institutions including colleges, universities, and secondary schools; health care facilities including hospitals, nursing homes, and medical practice groups; prestigious scientific research institutions; and diverse nonprofit organizations. Professors, scientists, doctors, administrators, technicians, and support staff have all sought our assistance in both temporary and permanent visa matters.
