My law practice specializes in family-based immigration for all types of families, including LGBT bi-national couples who now have the right to petition for permanent residence through marriage.  

My goal as an attorney is to not only guide my clients through the immigration process with expert advice, but to also be extremely responsive to my clients' questions and concerns.  When you work with my law practice, you will be directly in touch with me and my law partner.  We do not hand off our clients to paralegals or case managers.  And we promptly return all calls and e-mails -- usually the same day, but always within 24 hours.  

We are happy to offer free phone consultations to our prospective clients.  If we can help you, and you decide you want to retain our services, we will work with you to put together a reasonable attorney's fee plan that takes into account your financial situation.  But if we cannot help you, you will not be charged for a consultation fee.  

I have particular expertise in working with gay, lesbian, bi-sexual and transgender individuals and bi-national couples through the immigration process.  Prior to the Defense of Marriage Act ("DOMA") being struck down by the Supreme Court in June 2013, same-sex couples were discriminated against by federal law, and could not seek immigration benefits for their foreign national spouses.  But now that DOMA has been defeated, we have filed petitions on behalf of dozens of same-sex married couples with great success.  Some of these couples had been waiting decades for the opportunity to petition for permanent residence.  There are still special considerations for LGBT couples in the immigration process, but we help guide same-sex couples through the process with the expertise and responsiveness that make our law practice unique.

To set up a free phone consultation, please call or e-mail us.  Thank you for considering our law firm.
