Immigration law issues come in many different shapes and sizes.

With a call to Richard Hanus and the Law Offices of Richard Hanus, you are assured that your future immigration law decisions will be informed and guided by 25+ years of specialized immigration counsel experience.

When it comes to family relationships that serve as an avenue to U.S. immigration, the most common questions involve the details of the underlying laws as to which relationships qualify, and the exact process of how to go about securing the desired immigration benefit, including place of filing and timing. Different requirements apply to different family relationships, and most notably the time it takes for a family based filing to lead to issuance of permanent residence, or green card, varies widely depending on the circumstances. Like most areas of immigration law, the family relationship context presents as a complicated labyrinth and having knowledgeable immigration counsel by your side is essential.

For questions faced by companies and their current or prospective foreign workers, employment related immigration rules and regulations are just as maze-like. Whether you are an employer trying to understand your rights and obligations when it comes employing foreign workers or are a foreign national seeking to secure a work visa to join a U.S. company, navigating applicable immigration laws with eyes wide open is crucial. A lawyer experienced providing employment based immigration representation will help ensure any process commenced is rooted in a realistic understanding and application of the governing immigration laws.

For foreign nationals facing removal proceedings, whether because they overstayed their visa, committed a removable criminal offense or for some other reason, having experienced counsel on your side a must. Knowledge of the underlying immigration law principles leading to the commencement of removal proceedings along with insight as to what an Immigration Judge expects from a foreign national in reviewing a claim for relief are absolutely essential to presenting the best defense and to maximize chances of avoiding deportation.
