Our firm has extensive experience in the complex field of immigration law. In February 2003, primary responsibility for the administration and enforcement of U.S. immigration law was transferred from the Immigration and Naturalization Service, a Justice Department agency, to the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services (BCIS) and the Directorate of Border and Transportation Security (BTS), agencies of the new Department of Homeland Security. We represent clients in immigration matters before the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of State, Department of Labor, Executive Office for Immigration Review and in the federal courts. These matters include:

• Nonimmigrant visas for professionals, intra-company transferees, investors, students, athletes and entertainers.
• Immigrant visas for investors, priority workers, professionals and skilled workers.
• Labor certification.
• Representation in removal proceedings before the Executive Office for Immigration Review.
• Asylum, withholding of deportation and Convention against Torture claims.
• Appeals to the Board of Immigration Appeals, Administrative Appeals Office and federal district and appellate courts.
• Employer compliance with BCIS and Department of Labor regulations.
• Naturalization and citizenship.
• Family-based petitions.
• Visa processing at U.S. consulates worldwide.

We continuously monitor legislative trends and agency policy. Our detailed knowledge of the relevant statutes, regulations and case law, as well as government procedures, country conditions and international business practices, allows us to provide comprehensive and timely solutions to your immigration needs.
