Our firm focuses only on the practice of immigration law and knows how to get cases through the system efficiently and without any unnecessary delays.

Do You Need an Immigration Lawyer?
This is a common question many people ask, and the answer is it depends. While one can certainly Google and find information that can help them file a petition or application to get an immigration benefit, what many find is a case can quickly get complicated and is denied for either a mistake made or something overlooked.
In some cases, one pursuing an immigration matter without the help of an experienced immigration attorney may have their case denied because they misinterpreted and misunderstood instructions they found online.
To avoid all this, it is good to at least consult with an experienced immigration attorney who can evaluate the facts and circumstances in your case to determine the best strategy for you to obtain what you seek.
What a Chicago Immigration Lawyer Can Do For you
There are many things an experienced immigration lawyer can do for you, including the following:
- Case Evaluation
Before you embark on the immigration process, it is important for your immigration lawyer to know all the relevant information that pertains to your case. When you call or come in for your initial consultation, you will be asked questions and, when necessary, to avail certain documents for your immigration lawyer to fully evaluate your case. Once that is done, the lawyer will devise and inform you of a strategy to obtain the best outcome for your case.Â
- Document Preparation and Filing
Once the evaluation of your case is done, and a strategy is devised, then implementing that strategy will normally be the preparation and filing of required documents with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). This is a critical stage because USCIS processes a staggering number of petitions and applications in the tens of thousands. For their part, individual USCIS examiners go through a large number of petitions and applications. At Kriezelman Burton, we know how to package a case for easy review and approval by the examiners.
- Appeals
The law provides various appeal mechanisms for cases denied by the USCIS or Immigration Court. At Kriezelman Burton & Associates, we have experienced immigration appeal lawyers who can appeal your case if it is denied for reasons we believe are not right or fair. Our belief is we must fight for our clients’ cases to the end with the objective of ultimately getting the best outcome possible.

I have heard from several people that Brittni is a great attorney. When my friend was detained, I recommended Brittni to take his case. She did an amazing job putting together all the necessary information, especially given that we had only a couple of days to submit the habeas corpus application. She and her team worked very professionally and provided clear guidance throughout. She stayed in touch consistently and was…
Highly recommend Jennifer Peyton in federal litigations. She’s very polite and experienced.

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…
I just want to say huge thank you to Mr. Kevin A. Raica. for everything he has done for me throughout my immigration case. When I first came to Kevin, he explained the SIJS process clearly and walked me through the steps. We first needed to get the guardianship court order before moving forward with the I-360, and he connected me with a trusted attorney to help with that part.…
I cannot find the words to express my gratitude to Brittni Rivera! She literally saved my family. We had been waiting seven years for what she accomplished in just three weeks. I was impressed by how accessible the office is—they always answer calls very quickly. A special thank you to paralegal Nataliia Melnyk. You are my heroes. Thank you.
