Family Immigration

Gravitation cannot be held responsible for people falling in love. How on earth can you explain in terms of chemistry and physics so important a biological phenomenon as first love? Put your hand on a stove for a minute and it seems like an hour. Sit with that special girl for an hour and it seems like a minute. That's relativity.

Albert Einstein

In an increasingly global world, it is not uncommon for couples to find each other half way across the world, for individuals to move away from their families in search of educational or economic opportunities, and for a couple to adopt a child from another continent.

Immigration law has affected our personal lives and the lives of our loved ones, and so we understand the anxieties that may strike a family in the midst of the immigration process. Behind the face of every client, we see our fathers, mothers, spouses, brothers, sisters, and children.

If you plan to bring a loved one to the United States on your own, you may find yourself in a maze of “preference categories,” “quotas,” and quite possibly lengthy delays brought on by security concerns. We can help you make sense of immigration jargon, guide you past the immigration stumbling blocks, and ultimately help design a realistic plan to bring you together with your loved one as quickly as possible.

The K1 Visa (also known as the fiancé visa), U.S. and international adoption laws, and what are known as family-based immigrant visas are but a few avenues we can explore, as applicable. If you wish to discuss your options, please contact an attorney today to arrange for a consultation and learn more about how we can help you.
