Family Based Immigration Attorney In New Jersey & New York

We strive to prepare and help process fiancé and family-based immigrant petitions expeditiously so families can reunite as soon as possible. We assist our clients in procuring their permanent residence both through adjustment of status for those in the United States or through consular processing for those abroad or who must travel abroad to obtain their visa. Family-based petition privileges have now been extended to couples of same-sex marriage. Our office is also well-known for its experience in preparing VAWA petitions for spouses of U.S. citizens or legal permanent residents that have been battered or subject to extreme cruelty. I-360 petitions based on extreme cruelty or abuse are self-petitions. This means that the spouse of a legal permanent resident or U.S. citizen who has been abusive may file a petition on his or her own behalf. This process is confidential and the abusive spouse will not be contacted by USCIS. We prepare all applications related to permanent residence including those for employment authorization and advance parole travel documents.

Our firm is also experienced in preparing I-751 petitions to remove the conditions of permanent residence obtained through a marriage that was less than two years old. If you are currently still living with your U.S. citizen or legal permanent resident spouse and need to remove the conditions of your permanent residence, our office can assist you in filing a joint I-751 petition. If you entered the marriage in good faith but you are no longer living with the petitioning spouse, we may be able to assist you by filing an I-751 waiver based on divorce, extreme cruelty or hardship.
