Voted as One of the Best Immigration Lawyers in Austin, TX

About Our Firm

Our Austin immigration law firm specializes on representing U.S. citizens seeking permanent resident status for their spouses, parents, and children and on seeking U.S. citizenship (naturalization) for people who already hold green cards.  We often handle cases to remove two year “conditional” limits from green cards obtained through marriage.   We frequently represent applicants who need to renew or replace expiring, lost, or stolen green cards.    Other family sponsored matters we handle include adjustment of status, consular processing for relatives needing green card interviews at U.S. consulates abroad, K-1 fiancée visas, and reentry permits for green card holders needing to temporarily reside/work overseas.  We obtain temporary work permits (“EADs”) and travel permits (“advance paroles”) for our adjustment of status clients.  We also represent many DACA recipients to seek renewals. 

At this time our firm is not handling visitor, student, H-1B, H-2, E-1, E-2 treaty investor/trader visas, EB-5 immigrant investor cases, L-1, O-1 nonimmigrant visas, asylum, or removal (deportation) defense.

Citizenship

-Most people become U.S. citizens by: Birth within the United States, birth abroad to a U.S. citizen parent, or naturalization within the U.S. after first having immigrated. Additionally, any child under the age of 18 with green card status who is residing in the custody of a biological parent who is a U.S. citizen will also acquire U.S. citizenship due to the Child Citizenship Act (CCA) passed by Congress in 2000. A person may be eligible for naturalization if he/she has resided in the United States for at least 5 years as a permanent resident (or 3 years if married to and living with a U.S. citizen spouse).

Nonstop pro bono consultations all morning. Even many long time naturalized U.S. citizens are worried about their status under the upcoming Trump administration. Sad that so many people are so fearful for themselves & their families.

Very productive liaison meeting today with the San Antonio U.S Citizenship & Immigration Service’s Field Office Director, two Section Chiefs, and Public Information Officer.  Also present were representatives of the Mexican Consulate, accredited representatives of nonprofit agencies, and many immigration lawyers. These meetings are important lines of communication between all involved with implementations of our complex immigration laws in Central Texas. Our CIS Field Office has jurisdiction from Waco through Laredo.  Pictured with three Austin immigration lawyer colleagues.
