Marriage Green Card
If you have been living in the US and you have gotten married, you will probably need to obtain a marriage green card for your spouse. This will adjust your status from a travel visa to an actual green card. Once you have filed the appropriate paperwork, we can help you achieve this status and move forward with your life.
Deportation Defense
If you or someone you know is in jeopardy of being deported, you will need the defense of a great immigration lawyer. Do not leave it up to chance, Daniel Richardson will help make sure you have the best possible defense to try to remain in the States. Being deported is not something anyone wants to face alone. The legal system is very specific in the requirements that must be met to remain legally in the US. Make sure all of your information is credible and that your attorney presents it to the Immigration Court in the best possible way.
Fiancé Visas and Family Petitions
If you have a fiancé in another country and you would like to bring him or her to the US so you can get married, you will need to file for a fiancé visa (K-1). There are qualifications that must be met and you will probably need the help of an attorney to make sure the transition goes smoothly. You may also want to bring a close relative to the US so they can live here with you as green card holders. If so, you will need to petition them. Use the services of Daniel Richardson and his professional staff to bring everyone back together.
Citizenship
Once you have lived in the US for five years with your green card or three years if you got your green card through marriage, you may want to apply for citizenship. There are many benefits to becoming a citizen including the right to vote and even to join the military service. Talking with an immigration attorney will make this process easier. You will feel proud to be an American once you have obtained your citizenship and all of the rights and privileges that go along with it.
Asylum
There are specific restrictions and requirements for refugees who would like to apply for asylum in the US. If you are granted asylum, you will be permitted to live and work in the US and after a year in that status, you can apply for a green card. But before getting a grant of asylum, you will need to go through the legal process and make sure all of the requirements are met. Let the experienced legal team of Daniel Richardson do the work for you.
