Immigration Cases We Handle
Our immigration services in Brooklyn, NY, include assistance with:
- Family-Based Immigration. To get a green card through family-based immigration, you will need an eligible relative who is willing to sponsor you. This family member must already be a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident. You may face a significantly long wait if you are applying as a “family preference” relative. “Immediate relative” applicants receive priority and can request their visas as soon as their family petitions are processed.
- Deportation Defense. You could be targeted for removal from the United States if the government believes you do not have valid immigration status or if you violate a condition of your visa. You may receive an official summons called a “Notice to Appear” (NTA), or you might be arrested by immigration authorities. In either scenario, you will have an opportunity to request any relief you qualify for, including family-based immigration, asylum, or cancellation of removal.
- Crimmigration. The intersection of criminal law and immigration law is known colloquially as “crimmigration.” Immigrants are required by law to maintain “good moral character,” and any criminal conviction – no matter how insignificant – could be interpreted to be a violation of this obligation. Thus, any criminal conviction can threaten your ability to stay in the United States, even if you are a lawful permanent resident. If you are charged with a crime, it is in your best interest to discuss your case with someone who understands the potential immigration implications.
- Asylum & Refugee Relief. You may qualify for protection in the United States if you have faced persecution in your home country or reasonably fear future persecution if you return to your country of origin. This persecution must be due to your race, religion, nationality, political opinions, or membership in a particular social group. You will seek refugee status if you have fled your country of origin and are outside the United States. If you are already in the U.S., you can “affirmatively” seek asylum protection within one year of your entering the country. You can also “defensively” seek asylum at a U.S. port of entry or during removal proceedings.
- Employment & Investor-Based Immigration. You can get a green card through a U.S. employer if they are willing to sponsor you and can obtain a labor certification. You will need a job offer unless you have recognized extraordinary ability in your professional field or qualify for a National Interest Waiver. Professionals with advanced degrees, bachelor’s degrees, and varying levels of training can all potentially qualify for employment-based visas. You can also obtain a green card through investment if you provide at least $1,050,000 to a U.S.-based company (or $800,000 to a company in a preapproved rural or high-unemployment area). Your investment must generate (or in some cases protect) at least ten jobs.
