Business Immigration

For employers looking to hire workers outside of the United States, immigration laws and regulations can make this process complex and time-consuming. For some, a prospective employee may have difficulties securing a visa. In which case, our experienced business immigration attorneys can help secure waivers or find other ways to resolve visa-related issues. For others, they may require assistance to ensure, during the hiring process, that all the necessary steps are taken when new employees complete their I-9 forms. As an experienced business immigration law firm, we can help with that too.

HIRING FOREIGN WORKERS

We have successfully helped companies throughout the United States sponsor individuals for nonimmigrant visas, such as H1B, L-1, and TN. We have also helped companies in various industries secure permanent residency for employees.

Navigating the intricacies of the immigration laws and USCIS regulations can be difficult, but our attorneys have the experience to guide employers in the right direction.
