Helping You Bring Your Family Together · Keeping Your Family Together
The most important aspect of immigration law is helping families come together — temporarily or permanently — and helping families stay together by maintaining their permanent residency status and avoiding deportation.
Our family is here to help you with all of your immigration needs:
Bringing Your Family Together
If you are a U.S. citizen or permanent resident (green card holder), we can help you petition for a family visa/green card for a spouse or children. To bring your family members here from another country for the purpose of becoming citizens involves a lengthy and complex legal process. We can help with the entire citizenship/naturalization process, from the initial compiling and filing of the appropriate forms to helping you obtain a waiver, which would allow someone who was deemed inadmissible to the country another chance at permanent residency.
Keeping Your Family Together
While permanent residency offers a great opportunity for people to build a new life in the United States, permanent residents face the constant fear of losing their opportunity and having their family split apart through deportation and removal by Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Our lawyer understands that keeping your family together is just as important as bringing it together. We have the experience to help you keep your family together. We have a thorough understanding of the deportation process and bail.
Criminal Defense and Immigration Law
One of the most important ways that we help families stay together is to provide informed guidance on how criminal proceedings could affect your immigration status. For our immigration clients, we work with your criminal defense attorney or public defender and offer counsel on the immigration consequences of any suggested plea agreement. We also provide our clients with guidance on the potential immigration consequences resulting from your criminal convictions and how these convictions may or may not affect you in removal proceedings or applications for lawful status.
Temporary Visas
We help our clients with all types of non-immigrant visas, as well. With more than 21 years of legal experience, attorney Gloria Cardenas is uniquely well positioned to help corporate clients with employment visas, intra-company transfer visas and visas for specialty occupations in fields requiring highly specialized knowledge.
