🔍 Beyond the Immigration Case: Strategic Business Consulting
While the core of my legal practice focuses on representing clients through every stage of their immigration case—from strategy and document collection to filing and final decision—I also offer something more:
I provide personalized business consulting, especially for clients pursuing investment-based or employment-based immigration, long before the case is even filed.
This proactive guidance helps clients lay the proper legal and operational groundwork for a U.S.-based business or commercial enterprise—an essential step in ensuring long-term success and immigration compliance.

❓ Why Is This Consulting So Important?
In nearly all business-based immigration cases, U.S. immigration authorities expect detailed and well-documented business plans, operational strategies, and financial data as part of the case submission.
Working through these issues early in the process not only:
- Strengthens your immigration petition or application,
- But also ensures your U.S. business is legally sound, compliant, and positioned for growth.
A well-prepared business case significantly increases your chances of immigration success and provides a strong foundation for your U.S. venture.
💲 How Are These Services Charged?
- Consulting fees are billed either hourly or on a project basis, depending on your needs.
- When appropriate, I may refer you to third-party professionals in areas such as real estate, accounting, taxation, or licensing.
- These professionals will bill separately for their services or deliverables.
