A green card gives you official immigration status (lawful permanent residency) in the United States. This allows a foreign national the privilege of living and working permanently in the United States.
At Bilfield & Associates in Cleveland and Lorain, Ohio, we represent people seeking permanent residency status and a green card in order to remain in the United States lawfully. Many people are hesitant to speak with an attorney. In our opinion, it is more frightening to deal with the USCIS without the advice of a lawyer. If you are looking to obtain lawful permanent residence for yourself, a family member or on behalf of an employee, consider contacting us for an initial consultation.
Why Obtain Permanent Residency?
A green card is your first step towards becoming a U.S. citizen. After you obtain a green card, you can come and go, with some restrictions, freely from the United States. You are entitled to work legally, obtain health care, education, tax, social security and other government benefits.
How to Obtain Lawful Permanent Residence
There are a multitude of ways in which you can obtain a green card and permanent residency status. The first thing you should do is consult with an experienced immigration lawyer. We are capable of helping you obtain a green card based on:
