Are you dreaming of being a citizen of the United States of America? You can receive U.S. citizenship through a process called naturalization. The process is intricate, but a skilled and knowledgeable immigration attorney can seamlessly guide you through each step.
In order to apply for citizenship, you must already be a Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR) and meet the following requirements (and other qualifications):
As experienced immigration attorneys, we understand the complex requirements for citizenship and can help you understand what you need to reach one of the most significant milestones in your life.
Asylum is a type of protection granted to refugees already in the U.S. or at the border who are unable or unwilling to return to their home country because of persecution or a fear of persecution based on nationality, race, religion, political opinion, or membership in a social group.
To file for asylum, you will either go through a process known as Affirmative Asylum or Defensive Asylum. If you already live in the U.S., you will go through the Affirmative Asylum process and apply using the USCIS form I-589. It’s important to note that you must apply for asylum within one year of entry into the United States. If you are outside of the U.S. seeking asylum and don’t have a valid visa to enter the country, you can claim asylum at a border crossing. This is known as Defensive Asylum.
Our immigration lawyers have successfully represented asylum seekers and can help you as well. We will work with you to determine if you qualify for asylum and then file on your behalf.

Our immigration attorneys can evaluate your qualifications and circumstances and advise you on the visa that will be fastest and most advantageous.
Immigration court proceedings are complex, overwhelming, and confusing and can be challenging for individuals to navigate independently. That’s why it’s essential to request the help of an immigration attorney when you are faced with the possibility of deportation.
If you are being charged with deportation by the government, our lawyers will review every detail of your case and develop aggressive defense strategies to try and help you stay in the U.S. A few defense tactics we may use include:
