Helping Employers and Employees Obtain Visas
The U.S. immigration process is complex and time-consuming. At the law firm of Shuttleworth, Ruloff, Swain, Haddad & Morecock, P.C. in Virginia Beach, Virginia, we have the knowledge and experience to help you avoid the mistakes that can put your immigration goals on hold.
Immigration Law provides a number of employment-based non- immigrant categories. Examples include:
- H-1B visas, which enable U.S. companies to employ professionals in specialty occupations. The H-1B visa is often used by employers to hire aliens who have a bachelor's degree or the equivalent
- O-1 visas, which are for aliens with extraordinary ability such as scientists and researchers with advanced degrees
- L-1 visas, which are for intracompany transfers
A mistake in the immigration process — such as selecting the wrong immigration category or failing to provide the required documentation — can result in delays or denials that can be frustrating both to employers and employees.
Our immigration lawyers will help you do it right the first time by reviewing your situation and documentation and helping you select an immigration category that meets both your immediate needs and your long-range goals.
If your goal is permanent U.S. residency, our lawyers can guide you through the PERM process that is sometimes needed to determine whether there are qualified and available U.S. workers in your geographic area.
