Immigration Law

Essentia Legal’s immigration practice is focused on representing individuals, families, churches, non-profit organizations and businesses before the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the Department of Homeland Security, the State Department, the Immigration courts, the Bureau of Immigration Appeals and the federal courts.  Our practice includes immigrant or non-immigrant visas, refugee/asylee petitions, adjustment of status, naturalization, representation in removal proceedings, advance parole or permission, family-based petitions, and employment-based petitions.

Through frequent interactions with the adjudicating agencies, our attorneys have developed great insight into administrative and judicial processes.  We also have deep knowledge of immigration law and the socio-political context in which the laws are enacted.   We are proficient in French, Spanish and other foreign languages and, as a completely diverse full service firm, have an unparalleled appreciation for the cultural sensitivities of most immigrant populations.

We offer free initial consultation and work closely with our clients to develop effective and affordable solutions to their immigration issues.  We also work closely with immigrant communities to provide educational clinics and facilitate integration of n the Great American Melting Pot.
