Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear, no-nonsense answers to common immigration concerns.
Can your firm represent me if I live outside of New York?
Yes, absolutely. Because U.S. immigration and nationality law is strictly federal law, an immigration attorney licensed in any U.S. state is authorized to represent clients anywhere in the 50 states, U.S. territories, and before U.S. embassies and consulates worldwide. We regularly consult with clients via secure video and phone, as well as in-person at our Bay Shore, New York office.
What happens during the initial consultation?
During your consultation, you will speak directly with an immigration attorney who will review your complete entry history, current status, any past filings or immigration court proceedings, and any criminal history. We will explain your available pathways, potential obstacles, and expected timelines. If we cannot help or believe a petition is likely to fail, we will tell you honestly.
How do you keep clients updated on their cases?
We prioritize client communication above all else. Whenever USCIS issues a receipt notice, biometrics appointment, Request for Evidence (RFE), or approval notice, you are notified immediately. We are available to answer your phone calls and reply to emails promptly when questions arise during processing.
Do you offer payment plans for legal retainers?
Yes. We offer transparent flat-fee pricing for most USCIS petitions and Immigration Court matters, and we offer flexible payment plans tailored to your financial circumstances so high-quality legal representation remains accessible.
