Our Immigration Services

Family-Based Immigration (Green Cards)

U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents may petition for certain family members to immigrate to the United States. These cases require careful documentation to establish the qualifying relationship and to demonstrate that the marriage or family relationship is genuine.

Brown Legal assists with the two primary pathways to permanent residence through family immigration.

Form I-485

Adjustment of Status

Adjustment of status allows certain applicants who are already in the United States to apply for lawful permanent residence without leaving the country. Our immigration attorney prepares the adjustment application and related filings, including employment authorization and advance parole travel permission when appropriate. Most applicants will also attend an interview with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).

NVC & Consulate

Consular Processing

When the intending immigrant is outside the United States, the case proceeds through the National Visa Center and a U.S. consulate abroad. Brown Legal helps prepare the immigrant visa case, organize supporting documentation, complete the affidavit of support, and prepare applicants for their consular interview.

Asylum and Humanitarian Protection

Individuals who fear persecution in their home country may be eligible to apply for asylum or other humanitarian forms of protection.

Brown Legal provides comprehensive immigration legal services for asylum cases by preparing detailed declarations, collecting supporting evidence, and presenting the legal arguments required under U.S. asylum law. These cases often involve careful documentation of country conditions and personal history.
