How Our EB-5 Lawyer Can Help You, Your Family & Your Business

March 8, 2023

At George & Marzialo, PLLC, we firmly believe legal representation is not a luxury but a fundamental right that should be accessible to everyone. Our team of Lawyers is dedicated to helping clients navigate the complexities of immigration law and find effective solutions to their immigration issues. We understand that every case is unique, and that’s why we take the time to walk you through your choices and assess the likelihood of success of each option. 

Family-Based Visas

Filing a petition on behalf of your relative is the first step in helping them immigrate to the United States. We guide citizens and permanent residents through the process of petitioning for their family. We aim to simplify the process from pre-application to immigration interview and every step in between.

Marriage-Based Immigration

To promote family unity, U.S. immigration law allows U.S. citizens and permanent residents to petition for their foreign-born spouses to live permanently in the United States. The law also permits U.S. citizens to bring their fiancé to the United States to be married. We have the experience to guide you from pre-application through to your interview with the consul. Marriage-based visa filing can be difficult and may require substantial documentation depending on the circumstances of your case. Families should be together, and we have a track record of success helping them unite.

Naturalization

Naturalization means becoming a U.S. citizen. We love helping our clients gain full citizenship. For many immigrants, the complex naturalization process can be a source of anxiety. We aim to ease this worry by preparing your application, providing you with educational materials for the English and Civics test, and guiding you through the citizenship interview process.

Employment-Based Immigration

Foreign workers with skills or expertise valuable to American companies may qualify for visas under the H-1B, L, and E visa categories. However, each visa is significantly different, with varied wait times depending on the immigrant’s country of birth. We can help guide you through your visa application process so that you make the right decision for you and your family.

EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program

The EB-5 program was created by Congress in 1990 to stimulate the U.S. economy through job creation and capital investment by foreign investors. Under this program, investors (and their spouses and unmarried children under 21) are eligible to apply for Green Cards, if they make the necessary investment in a commercial enterprise in the United States, and create or preserve 10 permanent full-time jobs for U.S. workers. At George & Marzialo, we have extensive experience documenting sources of funds for the EB-5 petition. If you are interested in acquiring a Green Card through investment, contact our office today.

Waivers

If you are already in the US without authorization, we may be able to help you get out of the shadows. The “Provisional Unlawful Presence Waiver” is available for immigrants whose family members would experience significant hardship if the immigrant was forced to leave the United States. If you are considering this route, contact us first so that we can walk you through your options, and determine whether a waiver can help in your unique situation.

U-Visas

If you are an immigrant and have been a victim of a crime, there are laws in the United States designed to protect you. Through cooperation with law enforcement, a U-Visa may allow you and your family to remain legally within the United States. To successfully apply for this visa, several legal requirements must be met. 

Violence Against Women Act (VAWA)

The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) allows an abused spouse or child of a US citizen or lawful permanent resident to self-petition for immigration status in the United States. We are passionate about advocating for abuse victims, and have partnered with several not-for-profit organizations that support survivors. We offer free consultations to all survivors, flexible payment plans, and low-cost legal services to those in need.
