Our immigration team advises employers and individuals across the U.S. and globally as it relates to U.S. immigration requirements. Whether working with large corporations or small businesses, we develop uniquely tailored immigration strategies to meet client needs.
We work closely with HR personnel, managers, and executives, providing all types of business immigration services to employers across many industries, including working closely with employers who have no prior experience in sponsoring foreign national employees. Our attorneys are focused on providing excellent service, ensuring clients secure the necessary authorizations for the smooth transition of international personnel coming to the U.S. We also guide foreign workers and their families through the process, making their move to the U.S. as seamless as possible.
With extensive experience in immigration law, we navigate the complexities of the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), Department of State (DOS), Department of Labor (DOL), and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to stay ahead of changes. We also counsel corporate clients involved in mergers and acquisitions to ensure that foreign employees involved in a corporate reorganization maintain their immigration status.
Our team regularly secures temporary and permanent visas for professionals across various industries, from executives and engineers to health care workers and students. We manage the entire range of filings, from initial visa applications to extensions and green card planning to ensure maintenance of proper U.S. immigration status and attendant work and travel authorization.
We work with businesses large and small, domestic and multinational, on their immigration strategies.
Our focus is on client service. We understand the need to promptly obtain necessary authorizations for a smooth transition and to facilitate international travel.

Working with government agencies including USCIS, DOS, DOL, and CBP helps us give our clients a necessary edge in meeting their objectives.
