Our firm has long- term experience guiding applicants through the immigration law maze and enabling them to relocate to the U.S. The clients we represent include multi-national, medium and small companies, as well as universities, government officials and individuals. We have represented foreign ambassadors and cabinet ministers, sports professionals and famous and ordinary people from 110 countries. Among the companies we represent are those in the fields of engineering, pharmaceuticals, consulting, computers, public utilities, research, trucking, construction, sales and machinery.
