What we can do to help you
Christie does immigration law, and only immigration law. With a decade and a half of immigration experience under her belt, you can be assured that she has likely seen a case just like yours before.
Because we handle a variety of immigration cases, we can more easily tell you what we DON’T do: We do not help employers petition for their employees to get immigration status. And we do not help employees get and maintain immigration visas or statuses based on their job.
