Our Family Immigration Services in Charlottesville, VA
Family-based immigration allows U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents to petition for close relatives — and our firm helps make that process easier and more successful.
We assist with:
- Marriage-Based Green Cards
We represent U.S. citizens and green card holders sponsoring their spouses, handling everything from filing Form I-130 to interview preparation. - Fiancé(e) Visas (K-1 Visas)
If you’re engaged to someone abroad, we guide you through the process of bringing them to the U.S. and help adjust their status after marriage. - Petitions for Parents, Children, and Siblings (Form I-130)
We prepare accurate, well-documented petitions that avoid unnecessary delays and ensure compliance with all USCIS requirements. - Adjustment of Status (Form I-485)
For family members already in the U.S., we help them obtain permanent residency — including form preparation, supporting evidence, and interview support. - Consular Processing
For relatives living outside the U.S., we manage the full immigration process — including National Visa Center coordination and embassy interview readiness.
Every family story is different. We listen to your goals, address legal risks, and guide you toward the most secure path to reunification.
