Helping Families Navigate the

Immigration Process

Family-based immigration can provide eligible individuals with a pathway to reunite with qualifying family members in the United States. Depending on the circumstances, the process may involve family petitions, marriage-based immigration, green cards, adjustment of status, consular processing, or other immigration procedures. At Franklin N. Garcia Law Firm, we help individuals and families understand the options that may be available to them and the requirements associated with their particular situation.

Every family immigration matter is different. Factors such as the relationship between family members, the immigration status of the petitioner, the location of the beneficiary, and the individual’s immigration history may affect how a case proceeds. Our team takes the time to understand your circumstances and explain the process in clear and straightforward language. We can provide guidance with documentation, applications, supporting evidence, interviews, and other important steps involved in a family-based immigration matter. Whether you are beginning the process of bringing a family member to the United States or need assistance with an existing matter, our goal is to provide personalized guidance and help you better understand the path ahead.
