Family-Based Immigration

Permanent residents and citizens of the United States may petition for the lawful immigration status of certain family members. Family and marriage-based cases require a unique understanding of the immigration policies and quotas that inhibit or delay family reunification. We personally guide families through each step of the process and have qualified staff to assist with any complication that may arise, including issues with meeting the financial obligations of family sponsorship, challenges to the legitimacy of a marriage, and the special treatment of conditional residents, or those who have been married for less than two years.
