Advising Families About Entry, Visas and Green Cards
North Carolina has one of the fastest growing foreign-born populations in the U.S., and the immigration law firm of ROBERT BROWN LLC has grown to keep pace with the demand for dependable legal advice across the range of family immigration needs.
Contact ROBERT BROWN LLC in Durham to learn about the ways we can develop and implement solutions to family immigration problems of all kinds. Current immigration law is heavily nuanced, and your outcome can depend on many often subtle variables: the age of the applicant, the country of origin or the petitioner's current immigration status. Because our practice covers the full range of family and employment-based immigration, our versatility and broad experience with U.S. immigration issues represents a substantial benefit for our clients in the U.S. and abroad.
Our clients are usually U.S. citizens or permanent residents who need legal counsel about the most effective ways to obtain a visa or a green card for a close relative: parent, spouse, fiancé or fiancée, son or daughter, brother or sister. Our lawyers can help you choose from your available options, prepare a strategy that promotes efficiency and success, and prepare for the necessary steps for bringing your relative to the United States.
Full-Spectrum Service in Family-Based Immigration
The North Carolina family visa attorneys of ROBERT BROWN LLC assist with the resolution of all kinds of immigration needs: entering the U.S., maintaining lawful status, adjusting status, and avoiding or solving problems related to overstays, violation of visa conditions or removal proceedings. Our objective is to help each client resolve an immediate immigration goal while protecting future client interests.
In many situations, our client will need to consider different alternative approaches toward the same objective. As well as taking pride in our exclusive focus on immigration law, we also take pride in our ability to present clients with a variety of options for achieving a specific goal.
For example, a U.S. citizen petitioning to bring a foreign national husband or wife to the United States can choose from two visa options. One option, Immigrant Spouse, takes longer but achieves permanent residence. The alternative approach, K-3 visa, achieves faster entry but will need further action later to obtain a green card. Both options involve entirely different petitioning processes, and our lawyers can explain what these differences mean in each specific family situation.
Because immigration processes are often difficult to navigate, our attorneys will work closely with you to provide direct answers to questions while developing the immigration solution that best suits your family's specific circumstances. From Asheville to Charlotte and Raleigh-Durham to Wilmington, our attorneys have helped clients throughout North Carolina and nationwide bring loved ones into the United States while providing legal assistance for those already here.

- Permanent residence (green card) for immediate relatives based on preference categories
