Immigration Law
US immigration law is the second most complex body of law after tax law.
Therefore, it is no surprise that people find the immigration process to be overwhelmingly complex and time-consuming. Filing mistakes and missed deadlines can cause significant delays, increase filing fees, cause unneeded stress, and even jeopardize your chances of success. This is why you need an experienced Houston-based immigration attorney to guide you through the process and champion your case.
