Immigration law is extremely complex, and whether you plan to come to the U.S. for a short visit, to work, or to permanently live, you may find that the whole immigration process proves to be more difficult than you anticipated.
Our Buffalo Grove, IL immigration attorneys have been helping clients like you navigate the ins-and-outs of immigration law for over forty years. Whether you are hoping to gain temporary employment in the U.S., or make a new home for your family, let our Buffalo Grove immigration law firm help you through the process and ensure the best possible outcome.
Many people mistakenly believe that migrating to the U.S involves a signature here, and a few initials there, but the reality is that there are a host of applications to fill out, requirements to meet, and deadlines to meet them by. There are several U.S. agencies responsible for carrying out immigration law, including U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and the U.S. Department of State (DOS), each of which has their own set of rules, eligibility requirements, and applications.
Furthermore, there are three categories of residency for which you can apply: permanent residency (green card), temporary nonimmigrant (visa), or the visa waiver program. Before applying, you must determine which category – if any – you are eligible for.
Unfortunately, no matter which category you file for, and whether or not you meet all of the eligibility requirements and properly fill out all of the paperwork, the U.S. has a right to turn down your application. In these instances, it is best to consult with an immigration attorney regarding citizenship and residency.
Whether you are initially applying for a visa or green card, or whether you are already in the United States on legal permanent or temporary status, a host of issues can arise when dealing with immigration law. Our Buffalo Grove immigration law firm routinely deals with the following issues:
Additionally, an adverse judicial or administrative determination regarding your immigration application can have negative consequences on your future, as it may result in your being barred from entering the country altogether. If you are already in the United States on a work or school visa, or if you already have your green card, an adverse administrative or judicial decision could mean deportation, civil fines, or even criminal penalties. If any issues should arise regarding your application or current immigration status, it is extremely important that you contact a Buffalo Grove immigration attorney to ensure your case is handled in the most efficient and professional way possible.
Although our office is located in Chicago, IL, we routinely travel to other areas throughout Illinois and the United States to help individuals obtain the immigration status they desire.

Kevin Raica literally saved my life. He helped me out of a dangerous situation that my previous attorney had put me in. After 17 years without status and 6.5 years of working with my previous attorney, I had experienced so many denials that I had completely lost hope. When I met Kevin, everything changed. He genuinely cared about my situation and gave me hope when I couldn’t see any for…

We have been in the dark with our case for over 2 decades, while working with other big firms who just kept me in the dark and sat on our case without making any effort to move it forward until I met the wonderful team at Kriezelman & Burton.

Our experience with the firm was extraordinary. We worked with attorney Andrea Ochoa. Since the very first meeting we met, Andrea gave us all the confidence to proceed with our case. She always answered our questions shortly and offered clear guidelines to proceed. When my son's case received a notice of intent to deny, she planned how to fight that decision effectively. We totally recommend everyone to trust their case…
