Improving Your Life Through Immigration Since 1974
U.S. and Canadian Immigration Lawyer
I strive to work in those areas on immigration law where I have a unique ability in view of our background and my legal training. This requires me to focus on those things that I am good at and to avoid being involved in those areas that someone else can handle better than I can. Here is a run down of those areas.
Careers
Home > Cases We Handle
We handle the following kinds of cases both in the United States and in Canada:
- Spousal permanent resident immigration sponsorships including work and travel permits. (Example – An American marries a Canadian – now they want to live together.)
- Start up and investor work visas and permanent resident applications under NAFTA or otherwise. (Example – A businessman wants to start a new business in the USA or Canada.)
- Inter-corporate transferee work visas and permanent resident applications. (Example – A company with offices in Canada and the U.S. wants to transfer a manager from one country to the other.)
- Professional work visas under NAFTA for all professions. (Example – a Canadian engineer has a job offer in the U.S.)
- Waivers for individuals who are inadmissible due to a previous criminal conviction. (Example – An American with a DUI wants to come to Canada.)
- Cases involving extraordinary immigrant applicants who are outstanding in their field. (Example – Celine Deon wants to perform in the United States after becoming a star in Canada.)
- Skilled worker applications under Canada’s federal immigration program. (Example – a speech pathologist wants to immigrate to Canada.)
We do not handle:
- Simple visitor visa applications – since they usually do not require legal assistance.
- Refugee or asylum cases
- Litigation or appeal cases
- Student visas since these are normally arranged by the educational institution involved
- J-1 visa applications
- Deportations
- Labor certifications or HRSDC/Provincial nominee cases – (We work with associates who help us process these kinds of cases.)
- H2B visas.
