Naturalization

Naturalization is the process through which a lawful permanent resident (green card holder) becomes a U.S. citizen. This process involves meeting certain eligibility requirements and knowledge of English and U.S. civics. Becoming a citizen offers important benefits, including the right to vote, apply for a U.S. passport, and petition for certain family members. Our firm is here to guide you through every step of the naturalization process with clarity and confidence.

DACA

DACA renewal allows eligible individuals who were granted Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) to continue their protection from deportation and maintain work authorization. Because DACA status is temporary, timely renewal is essential to avoid gaps in protection and employment eligibility. Our firm is here to help you navigate the renewal process efficiently and with confidence, so you can keep moving forward without interruption.

Custody/SIJS

We assist children and families with Special Immigrant Juvenile Status (SIJS), a pathway to lawful status for minors who have been abused, neglected, or abandoned by a parent. A key step in the SIJS process is obtaining a custody order from a state court with specific findings required under immigration law. Our firm provides compassionate and experienced representation in both SIJS petitions and related custody matters.

We proudly offer custody and guardianship services for SIJS cases to clients across Virginia including Richmond City, Chesterfield and Henrico counties, throughout the Hampton Roads area, including Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Newport News and in the Charlottesville and Williamsburg areas. If your child may qualify for SIJS or you need help securing a custody order, contact our office today to learn how we can support your family every step of the way.
