Understanding the immigration bureaucracy

The U.S. immigration system is comprised of a complex web of intricate laws and vast bureaucratic agencies, each with its own rules, regulations and policies. The attorneys at Joseph T. Rhodes Law Firm maneuver comfortably through the red tape to bring you the best possible outcomes when dealing with:

• Department of Homeland Security (DHS)
• U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)
• U.S. Border Patrol (CBP)
• U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (USICE)
• Department of Labor (DOL)
• Worldwide consulates and embassies
• Immigration court
• Federal court
• Detention facilities

Applying for a visa

Applying for a visa is more complicated than just sending forms to USCIS. The U.S. government places strict requirements on qualifications and outlines inflexible procedures for filing. Mistakes on your application can lead to crucial delays and possibly a denial of the visa. Each type of visa comes with its own set of essential criteria, which must precisely match your qualifications. The firm’s attorneys discuss your short-term and ultimate immigration goals to set up a long-range plan. They thoroughly analyze your situation to choose the appropriate pathway, and meticulously gather evidence that supports each element of your eligibility. They anticipate complications and troubleshoot before problems occur.

Constantly-changing immigration laws

Immigration policy is under constant debate and the laws are frequently modified. In addition, the various government agencies that administer immigration regulations regularly update their procedures, forms and guidelines. The firm’s lawyers stay current on the shifts in immigration law and updated on potential changes in the pipeline. To successfully advise you, they consider not only the laws as they exist but the possibility of beneficial — as well as harmful — reforms. Fastidious and dedicated, they relentlessly pursue your case and develop unique solutions in complicated situations.
