Family-Based Immigration
Petitions and residence applications for spouses, children, parents, and other eligible relatives.
Family petitions and adjustment
The firm handles petitions for eligible spouses, parents, children, and other relatives, as well as adjustment and consular-processing strategy. Eligibility depends on the relationship, petitioner’s status, visa category, admissibility, and prior immigration history.
Fraud findings and petition denials
We have experience challenging adverse findings of marriage fraud and misrepresentation at USCIS and in federal court, including disputes concerning INA § 204(c) and evidentiary deficiencies.
Adam Walsh Act challenges
Certain petitioners with specified convictions involving minors face additional restrictions. The firm has successfully contested adverse Adam Walsh Act determinations; these cases require careful analysis of the statutory criteria and the agency record.
VAWA self-petitions and family abuse
Survivors who otherwise depend on an abusive qualifying relative for a family-based petition may be eligible to petition independently under the Violence Against Women Act. Special eligibility, evidence, confidentiality, and adjustment rules apply.
