Our Green Card Services
The need for legal assistance in the Green Card process arises from the application's sheer complexity and high stakes.
You may need our services for:
Family reunification - A U.S. citizen or current Green Card holder seeking to sponsor a spouse, child, parent, or sibling to join them in the U.S.
Employment and investment - Skilled workers, professionals, outstanding researchers, or foreign investors requiring a permanent status to work in their field in the U.S.
Complex cases - Individuals with prior immigration issues (overstays, unauthorized employment, prior denials), criminal history, or those who need a Waiver of Inadmissibility.
Conditional residency - Conditional permanent residents (typically through marriage or investment) who need to file the crucial Petition to Remove Conditions (Form I-751 or I-829).
Green Card renewal - Those whose cards have expired, are lost, stolen, or damaged must file Form I-90 to maintain valid documentation.
If you require any of the above services, our immigration team is here to assist you.
How Our Firm Guides You to Permanent Residency
With over 19 years of experience, our Orlando Green Card attorneys provide tailored legal strategies for every path:
Eligibility determination - We analyze your personal history and legal status to identify the fastest and most secure Green Card category (family-based, employment-based, humanitarian, etc.).
Petition and application - We prepare and file the initial immigrant petition (such as Form I-130 or I-140) and the final Green Card application (Form I-485 or consular processing documents).
Consular processing vs. Adjustment of Status - We determine the correct process, filing for adjustment inside the U.S. or applying for an immigrant visa at a U.S. embassy abroad, and manage the corresponding procedures.
Waiver preparation - If necessary, we prepare and submit complex Waivers of Inadmissibility to overcome past legal issues that might otherwise lead to a denial.
Interview preparation - We conduct thorough mock interviews, especially for marriage-based cases, to prepare you and your petitioner for the USCIS interview.
The Value of Representation in Green Card Cases
Navigating the U.S. immigration system without professional guidance carries significant risks. At Lorenzo Law Group, we don't just handle paperwork; we act as advocates who provide knowledge, strategy, and protection.
Skilled Navigation of Complex & Changing Law
Understanding shifting regulations: Immigration law is highly dynamic. We stay current on frequent changes in statutes, policies, and agency guidelines to help your application meet current legal requirements.
Determining the correctpathway: With multiple Green Card categories, we can evaluate your complete history to select the fastest, most secure, and appropriate legal path. Filing under the wrong category can lead to immediate denial and wasted time/fees.
Interpreting legal jargon: We can decipher complex legal terminology and ambiguous questions on government forms, preventing you from unknowingly making a technical misrepresentation or providing a harmful answer.
Risk Reduction & Error Prevention
Avoiding costly mistakes: Even minor errors, a missed signature, an incorrect date, or the omission of a critical document, can trigger a Request for Evidence (RFE), result in substantial delays, or lead to outright denial, requiring you to restart the lengthy process. We enable meticulous accuracy.
Protective issue spotting: We review your full background (past travel, prior visa denials, minor criminal history, unlawful presence) to identify potential grounds of inadmissibility. We can then strategically prepare and file necessary waivers before the issue can lead to a denial.
Complete evidence submission: We construct a robust, legally sound application package, knowing precisely what type of documentary evidence USCIS requires to satisfy the burden of proof.
Advocacy & Representation During Proceedings
Handling Requests for Evidence (RFEs): When USCIS requests additional information, we draft a timely, legally comprehensive response that directly addresses the officer's concern with the correct legal arguments and supporting evidence.
Preparation for and presence at interviews: We prepare you for the type of questions an officer may ask, particularly in marriage-based cases, and can attend the USCIS interview. Our presence protects your rights, questions are clearly understood, and any factual errors by the officer are immediately corrected.
