HOW WE CAN HELP YOU:
-
Residencia Permanente
Obtaining Permanent Residence, also known as Green Card, allows a citizen from a different country, to live and work indefinitely in the United States. The process could seem simple at first glance however, it is complex, dynamic and if done wrong, could have severe consequences going from losing the money paid in processing fees, denial of immigration benefits, even to be placed in removal (deportation) proceedings.
-
Ciudadanía
An application for U.S Citizenship is by no means an easy task. Many applicants have applied for citizenship only to learn that their applications were denied before ever having taken the citizenship test. Numerous issues are considered by the Department of Homeland Security in assessing a candidate’s entire immigration record from their initial application for immigration benefits through their application for U.S citizenship. This is why it is important to ask oneself, “Do I need to hire a lawyer for my citizenship application?” or “How can a citizenship lawyer help me?”
The immigration attorney Xavier Mendez, is glad to assist you the citizenship process. -
