Key talent is paramount to your company's success.

Overview

Hire and retain top global talent
When you need to transfer foreign employees to the United States or hire top candidates who need immigration sponsorship, we can harness our case-processing expertise and agency insight to facilitate smooth and successful solutions to your immigration needs.

Strategic and smart immigration advice
This is an unprecedented and challenging time in the world of immigration law, with a pervading sense of uncertainty, heightened workplace and border enforcement, and many hurdles to overcome. Still, you need immigration matters to be resolved as fast and with as much certainty as possible.

Our experienced, collaborative team will help you navigate complex immigration laws, regulations, and policies so they do not stand in the way of your business. Our clients trust us with the most challenging immigration issues. For example, we assist a large health system with thousands of employees, as well as tech startups that need to hire a specialized workforce to support quick growth. Companies such as racehorse farms and entertainment companies also rely on us to secure essential labor within a very compact timeframe to meet critical business needs.

To act as fast as possible in time-sensitive immigration matters we leverage INSZoom technology. This allows us to work securely and efficiently on our side and reduce the administrative burden on your internal team.

A number of our attorneys and paralegals have foreign language skills, so we are particularly adept at serving Chinese, Japanese, and Spanish-speaking clients and nationals.

We anticipate your needs
Our primary purpose is to understand how your business and business immigration needs fit together. We don’t just respond to your requests, we anticipate your needs, track key timeframes and devise immigration strategies and processes that are tailored to you.
