Immigration Law - Family
Under current immigration law, US Citizens and lawful permanent residents can petition for certain family members for a green-card to come work and live in the United States permanently. A US citizen can petition for a relative such as spouse, child, parent, sibling, and even a step child or step parent.
Deportation & Appeals
There are instances in which an immigration authority can order the removal of an individual from the United States. If you are living in the United States without proper documentation, or have violated the terms of your visa, you may have options to cancel your removal if you are facing removal proceedings. If your case has been denied, you may still have alternative options. You may qualify to file an appeal or a motion to have your case decision reviewed.
