Yes. Immigration law is federal, so we represent clients in all 50 states. Many consultations and client meetings can be conducted remotely.

Timelines depend on current USCIS and immigration court backlogs. We will give you an honest estimate based on the latest processing data, but no attorney can guarantee exact processing speed.

Personal injury cases are handled on a contingency fee basis. You do not pay unless we recover compensation for you. During your consultation, we will review the details of your accident, your injuries, and your medical records, then explain what compensation you may be entitled to.
