IMMIGRATION

Family-Based Immigration

Some people come to the United States for work; others come to be with family. Whether you are a U.S. citizen or U.S. permanent resident seeking to bring a spouse, child, parent, or sibling into the United States, Davis Malm helps families navigate the family-based immigration process.

Our team guides clients through every stage of the process with legal expertise and practical insight. These petitions can involve interviews before U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services or interviews before U.S. Embassies and Consulates. We have extensive experience preparing families for such interviews and advising on the range of issues common to this process, such as travel in and outside of the United States while petitions are pending. We handle the complexities so you can focus on building your future together.

  • Preparation and representation on marriage and other family-based immigrant petitions
