One of our Major Areas of Practice is Employment-Based Immigration

We  help businesses and workers obtain visas for U.S. employment

The United States is a nation of immigrants, and we continue to rely on the talents and industry of foreign-born workers for the innovation, research and development, and essential labor that helps our economy to thrive.  If you are seeking permanent resident status in the United States based on an offer of employment, or if you are an employer wishing to sponsor a foreign worker, our firm[ can competently guide you through the process, which involves a complex set of regulations and procedures administered by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). I will be with you at each step, offering the advice and advocacy you need to accomplish your goals.

We  assist immigrants, employers and the U.S. national interest

We believe that employment-based immigration is meant to benefit the immigrant, the employer and U.S. interests.  Our legal skills are more than capable of making that benefit happen.  U.S. policy attempts to balance the competing needs of attracting essential workers and ensuring that qualified American workers are not disadvantaged. The hopeful immigrant must craft a petition with that understanding.  As an experienced Immigration attorney, I understand how the immigration system works and what elements are essential to a successful petition, which gives you an advantage in obtaining the job you seek.

Our Firm is dedicated to helping U.S. companies fill their personnel needs

I offer legal assistance with labor certification and petition filings, the first steps in the process that enable foreign nationals to work in the United States.  My firm advises clients on required documentation, the recruitment process, medical evaluations, and visa interviews inside and outside the United States to help them obtain employment-based immigrant visas, which are divided by categories of preference:

• E1  — Priority workers, which includes persons of extraordinary ability, outstanding professors or researchers, and multinational managers and executives who’ve worked for U.S.-affiliated companies abroad
• E2 — Professionals holding advanced degrees or those with exceptional ability
• E3 — Skilled and unskilled workers and other professionals
• E4 — Certain special immigrants, which includes a wide range of eligible employees such as religious ministers, workers in U.S. embassies abroad, and foreign nationals who assisted U.S. military personnel in war zones
• E5 — Immigrant investors (foreign companies seeking to invest in new commercial operations in the United States)

I also assist foreign workers seeking temporary jobs by helping employers to file temporary (nonimmigrant) employment petitions with USCIS.

Misstatements on a petition can delay or derail your chance to work in the United States, so it is important to seek guidance from an experienced immigration attorney. If you are a business owner seeking to fill a specific position or a foreign national seeking to advance your career in the United States, I offer comprehensive assistance throughout the employment-based immigration process.
