Understanding the immigration bureaucracy
The U.S. immigration system is comprised of a complex web of intricate laws and vast bureaucratic agencies, each with its own rules, regulations and policies. Our attorneys maneuver comfortably through the red tape to bring you the best possible outcomes when dealing with:

  • Department of Labor (DOL)
  • Worldwide consulates and embassies
  • Immigration court
  • Federal court
  • Detention facilities

Applying for a visa
Applying for a visa takes more than sending forms to USCIS. The United States government places strict requirements on qualifications and outlines inflexible procedures for filing. Mistakes on your application can lead to crucial delays and a potential denial. Each type of visa comes with its own set of essential criteria, which must precisely match your qualifications. Our attorneys discuss your short-term and ultimate immigration goals to set up a long-range plan. We thoroughly analyze your situation to choose the appropriate pathway, and meticulously gather evidence that supports each element of your eligibility. We anticipate complications and troubleshoot before problems occur.

Evolving immigration laws
Immigration policy is under constant debate and the laws are frequently modified. In addition, the various government agencies that administer immigration benefits regularly update their procedures, forms and guidelines. Law Offices of Rich & Chappell stays current on the shifts in immigration law and updated on potential changes in the pipeline. To successfully advise you, we consider not only the laws as they exist but the possibility of beneficial — as well as harmful — reforms. With fastidiousness and dedication, we relentlessly pursue your case and develop unique solutions to complicated issues.
