- Waivers
If you need an immigration lawyer's advice about the best ways to overcome a denial of entry or a green card into the United States, or to present a defense to removal on the grounds, contact the Law Office of Cheryl R.

They may be used even if you are already legally in the United States. If you are applying for a green card or a visa and the immigration service believe you are inadmissible, you may need a waiver of inadmissibility. If you are already in the United States and have violated the immigration or criminal law, you may be eligible for a waiver to prevent removal or deportation. If we can find a legally sound reason to do so, we use waivers of inadmissibility both for the denial of entry and as a defense to removal proceedings.
- Employment Nonimmigrant Visas
Whether or not you're interested in lawful permanent residence and eventual United States citizenship, most foreign nationals who enter the country for employment do so on nonimmigrant visas.

Many workers and employers find a mutual interest in changing the status of a foreign national employee from nonimmigrant to lawful permanent resident entitled to stay in the United States indefinitely, with or without eventual naturalization.

Immigration & Customs Enforcement has actively enforced illegal employment through use of I-9 audits. Corporate audits are now being conducted to see if companies are correctly adhering to I-9 compliance standards set forth by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
- H-1B Visas
The H-1B is a non-immigrant temporary work visa that allows employers in New York and the rest of the country to temporarily employ foreign workers in specialty occupations. The regulations define a “specialty occupation” as requiring theoretical and practical application of a body of highly specialized knowledge in a certain technical field. The H-1 B visas requires the attainment of a bachelor’s degree or its equivalent in work experience as a minimum. The job offered must require a bachelor's degree to qualify.
- L-1 Visas
An L-1B visa is a document specifically used to enter the United States for the purpose of allowing employees of an international company with offices in both a home country and in the United States, or for companies which intend to open a new office in the United States while maintaining their home country interests, to work in the U.S..
- Consular Processing
Many people may change their status in the United States to obtain permanent residence through a new immigrant status that is adjudicated in the United States by the office of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). However, it is also possible to obtain entry through an alternative procedure conducted in foreign countries at U.S. consulates operating under State Department authority.
