Because the immigration application process is so complex and filled with potential pitfalls, it is often a good idea to work with an experienced immigration attorney.
In the beginning we can provide you with strategic advice about your case. Most people are not familiar with the U.S. immigration system. Even if you have friends and family who have successfully secured a visa, they may not know the ins and outs of the process and the most recent changes in immigration law.
We can advise you of all of your options when it comes to immigration. You may even be eligible for a visa that you hadn’t even considered before – like an investor visa that will allow you to come to the United States and bring your family.
Making mistakes in the immigration process can be incredibly costly. In many situations, it would have been less expensive to hire an immigration lawyer from the start than to pay someone to fix the mistakes that were made by trying to do it yourself. Perhaps more importantly, working with an attorney can prevent you from making an error that leads to consequences that cannot be undone.
We will also act as a trusted counselor. They can advise you of the likelihood of success as well as alternatives that can be explored. Having a lawyer by your side can significantly reduce the stress and anxiety associated with the immigration process.
Finally, working with a lawyer can save you a lot of time and stress. United States immigration law is complicated and changes frequently. Immigration attorneys at our firm devote their practice to knowing about updates to the law, the most recent requirements, and other developments that could impact their clients’ immigration petitions.
Small technical mistakes – like using an outdated form – can significantly delay your case. The National Visa Center (NVC) may reject your submission which can add months to your case. When you hire an experienced attorney, they will work to ensure that your petition is completed correctly & filed properly – minimizing delays and maximizing the likelihood of success.
