America Through New Eyes
As immigration attorneys, one of the questions we hear most often is, “Can I move to the United States?” After more than 28 years of representing clients from around the world, we’ve learned that the better question is, “What is the best immigration strategy for my goals?” Every client brings a different story, and every successful immigration journey begins with understanding the available options.
FIFA Did More Than Showcase Soccer
Recent international sporting events introduced millions of visitors to communities across the United States. Many left impressed not only by the competition but also by the opportunities they observed, thriving businesses, welcoming communities, and the possibility of building a future here. Those experiences often lead to an important question: “How can I make the United States part of my future?”
You May Have More Immigration Options Than You Think
One of the biggest misconceptions we encounter is that there is only one visa available or that a green card should always be the first objective. In reality, immigration planning is highly individualized. Depending on your background and goals, there may be several pathways available.
Employment-Based Immigration
Investor Visas
Athletes, Coaches, and Extraordinary Talent | Professional Athlete Visa
Our firm has represented professional soccer players, coaches, martial artists, and other internationally recognized professionals. In one matter, we helped a soccer professional pursue an immigration strategy that allowed him to establish a soccer academy in the United States. In another, we represented an accomplished prize fighter whose international achievements supported eligibility for O-1 Visa Classification. Athletes who continue competing professionally may also qualify for P-1 Visa Classification depending on the purpose of their travel.
To explore O-1 and P-1 visas as an option for you visit here.
Establishing Yourself in the U.S Before the Greencard
We encourage clients to think beyond the next filing. In many cases, a temporary visa can provide the opportunity to establish a successful business, expand a career, or gain additional recognition before pursuing permanent residence. Every strategy should be based on the individual’s circumstances and long-term objectives.
