About Us
Experienced, Solution-Oriented Immigration Lawyers
Our prices are competitive, our service is world-class, and we take your case personally. Unlike many firms, we assign two people—not just one—to every case: the lead immigration lawyer and the lead paralegal, not junior staff.
Period.
Decades of Immigration Law Experience
Senior Legal Team
No one in our immigration law division has been in the field for less than a decade. The lead attorney has been practicing for 38 years, and the lead paralegal has over 20 years of experience.
Personal Understanding
We understand that this is a difficult time for you, and we want to make it easier by addressing all of your concerns and answering your questions. As lawyers—and as fellow human beings—we understand how you’re feeling.
Continuous Education
We invest significant time and money in continuing our education so that we can remain at the cutting edge of this complex and ever-evolving area of law.
Advanced Legal Resources and Time-Critical Response
Premium Legal Database Access
Feel free to call our competitors and ask if they subscribe to Westlaw—the most powerful, yet arguably most expensive, immigration case database on the planet.
Urgent Response for Denials
If you have recently had an immigration visa denial or a Green Card denial, call us immediately. When facing an immigration denial, time is critical, as you typically have only 30 days to respond. Missing a deadline in immigration cases is difficult to overcome, so it’s always better to play it safe.
Top-Tier Reputation and Referrals
Trusted by Peers
Many people are referred to our firm by friends, other immigration lawyers, government officials, and even the immigration department.
Global Recognition
We are one of the top U.S. immigration law firms in the world.
The Art of Persuasive Legal Advocacy
Research the Law
Any good, intelligent, detail-oriented high-level immigration attorney can thoroughly research the law.
Present the Facts
Anyone who isn’t an attorney can present it.
Sell the Argument
The key difference is the immigration lawyer who can sell it—persuasive ability. Many immigration cases are lost not because the law wasn’t well researched, but because the argument wasn’t compelling enough to convince the decision-maker of the client’s position.
Selling isn’t about hard selling; it’s about effectively negotiating a position.
Steven Riznyk: International Expertise
Our Lead Attorney
Steven Riznyk has spent most of his life in one area or the other of immigration law. As he is also a civil litigator, he has learned many other skills that he brings to the immigration division, least of which is high-level negotiation.
Added Value
It is these high-level negotiation skills that can make the difference between a case being ‘almost won’ and absolutely won.
High-Level Negotiation
Our law firm has successfully resolved international kidnapping of a child, blackmail of a political figure, career destruction of an actor, as well as doctor, and many other cases as a result of our lead attorney’s negotiation skills. The cases mentioned above were all resolved with NO money changing hands…the hard part; anyone can negotiate a figure!
Personal Approach to Every Case
We go to great lengths to humanize you to immigration officers.
All of our case files are ordered by your first name, not your last. Why? Because we know you are a person.
This is your life, your family’s life, and your future that you have entrusted to us. We get it. We respect it.
Comprehensive Legal Research Process
Selective Hiring Process
This is the easy (but labor-intensive) part for us. We have brilliant legal minds working for us—it takes 300 résumés for us to choose just one staff member.
Comprehensive Database Research
There are two ways to conduct research. One way is to buy a law book and quote the laws in it. That’s easy but not tailored to your needs. The other way is to use a comprehensive online database such as Westlaw or Lexis and speed-read 1,500 cases on an issue to find two or three that truly support your case.
Winning Results
For example, the E-2 investment visa requires an investment. There is no specific number in the law, but $100,000 generally works. We had a client with a $40,000 investment. Through our research, we found a precedent-setting case, and two days before December 25th, she got her Christmas present early—she won. That’s what we mean.
