Beyond Immigration

Entering the United States is the first step on the road to life in the United States. Emigrating to the United States can require other legal support, provided by our experienced team of attorneys. We understand the bigger picture of successful settlement.

Our law firm is here to meet many of these additional needs. Whether a newly settled immigrant, a brand new U.S. citizen, or a former client establishing a business in the United States or purchasing a first home for the first time, settlement in the United States is more than just a visa. We understand and possess the skills, knowledge and experience to effectively and efficiently, create a smooth and successful re-settlement

Lawyers at our firm understand the unique needs within:

• Commercial and residential real estate transactions and issues of all types, including purchases, sales, financing matters, lease negotiation, construction, condominium or co-op matters, closings and litigation
• Estate-related issues, including the creation or revision of wills, establishment of trusts, estate and gift tax analysis, power of attorney, probate, and a host of other services
• Corporate law concerns, including business formation and dissolution, business succession, commercial leasing, contracts, banking, licensing, international trade and joint ventures
• Family law, adoption, and divorce-related issues of all types
