Atlanta Immigration, Visas, and Removal Proceedings

For more than 15 years, the Atlanta immigration attorneys of Ibrahim Law Firm LLC has guided individuals and families through the multi-step immigration processes for entrance into and living in the United States.  The firm is well qualified by this experience to help you to obtain lawful permanent residency, appropriate non-immigrant visas, and even U.S. citizenship.

Legal residency

To attain lawful permanent residency based on family connection, you must have a relative who is either a citizen of the United States or a lawful permanent resident in this country.  Those who are already citizens or lawful permanent residents may petition to gain lawful permanent residency for their immediate families.

Nonimmigrant visas

The Atlanta immigration lawyers of Ibrahim Law Firm LLC also provides services for temporary visitors, workers, and their families to obtain visas, change their status, or extend their stays in the United States.  There are several categories of visitors who are considered nonimmigrants, including:

• Visitors for business or pleasure
• Students
• Spouses and fiancés or fiancées of U.S. citizens

Naturalization and claims to U.S. Citizenship

Naturalization is the process by which the United States awards citizenship to people born in other countries after they fulfill the requirements established by the United States Congress in the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA).  You may already be a citizen, but not certain of your claim. The Atlanta citizenship attorneys of Ibrahim Law Firm LLC can work with you to obtain documentation certifying your citizenship.

Removal proceedings

The Immigration and Nationality Act prescribes removal proceedings to determine whether you (a non-U.S. citizen) should be expelled from the United States— deported.  When you or your family members receive this official notification of deportation or refusal to re-enter the country, it is natural to be upset or even frightened. 

For more than 15 years, the Ibrahim Law Firm has been helping clients navigate the many regulations that determine your qualification to live in the United States. The goal is to get that removal order cancelled so that you and your family can stay here. This process begins with an appeal for relief from removal.

Appealing for relief from removal

There are a number of ways you can apply to block removal from the country or to gain re-entry, including—

• Asylum
• Adjustment of status
• Cancellation of removal
• Voluntary departure

Each is subject to many rules and regulations. Keep in mind that individuals almost always need experienced legal representation to make their cases successful.

Post-judgment relief

Even if your request for relief from removal is denied, there are many ways to overturn or reverse the decision. These include motions to reopen your case, reconsider the ruling on legal grounds, or delay your removal. A decision can also be appealed to a higher court.
