Business Visas We Handle
Every immigration journey is unique. At AB Legal Consult, we focus on helping employers, founders, and investors access the most relevant visa pathways for their objectives:
E-2 Treaty Investor Visa
Ideal for entrepreneurs from treaty countries looking to invest and actively manage a business in the U.S. Chesapeake’s growing commercial districts and pro-business climate make it an appealing location for E-2 ventures.
EB-5 Immigrant Investor Visa
This visa offers a route to permanent residency for those who invest in a U.S. business that creates jobs. From logistics hubs near the Port of Virginia to redevelopment projects throughout Chesapeake, we help you identify qualifying investments and guide you through the EB-5 process.
L-1 Intracompany Transferee Visa
International companies can transfer managers, executives, or employees with specialized knowledge to their U.S. office through the L-1 visa. We help you structure your Chesapeake office or affiliate and file with confidence.
H-1B Specialty Occupation Visa
Chesapeake’s need for professionals in IT, engineering, and healthcare makes the H-1B visa critical for local employers. Our firm supports the full petition process, including compliance with Department of Labor requirements.
