Francis Law Center is committed to helping clients successfully navigate every step of the immigration process. We understand that immigrating to a new country can be daunting, which is why we are here to help. We offer a wide range of services to help our clients with all aspects of the immigration process, from filling out paperwork and applications to preparing for interviews to navigating the legal system.

With over 1 million immigrants relocating to the United States each year, Francis Law Center is here to help make the immigration process as smooth and stress-free as possible. You won’t find a team with our experience, expertise, and compassion anywhere else. Our primary services include the following:

Family-Based Immigration

Family-based immigration is a complex process with many different types of visas and applications. Our law firm works with clients from all over the world who are seeking to help or reunite with their loved ones.

Some of the most common types of family-based immigration needs we handle include procuring marriage-based green cards, spousal immigrant visas, waiver applications, and removal of green card conditions.

Another common need we help with is K1 fiancé visas, which allow an individual to enter the United States for the purpose of getting married to their U.S. citizen fiancé within 90 days of their arrival in the United States. We also assist U.S. Citizen children in bringing parents to live in the United States with parent immigration visas. Learn more about our services and how we can help you.

Humanitarian Immigration

We have helped many clients obtain the protection they need through our work on humanitarian cases by helping them apply for U visas, working on their removal defense, and assisting with citizenship applications.

We also help with asylum applications, which are available to people who have been persecuted in their home country based on their race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group. To be eligible for asylum, you must provide evidence of a well-founded fear of persecution in your home country.

Finally, if you’re experiencing domestic violence, we may be able to help you through a Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) petition. VAWA allows victims of domestic violence who are married to or related to U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents (green card holders) to file for immigration benefits without their abuser’s knowledge or consent. If you need help learn more about how we can assist you.

Employment-Based Immigration

Whether you are a skilled professional seeking a work visa or an employer looking to hire foreign talent, employment-based immigration involves a complex web of federal agencies, deadlines, and petition requirements. Our attorneys guide both workers and employers through the full range of options, from temporary work visas such as the H-1B, L-1, O-1, and TN to permanent employment-based green cards including the EB-1, EB-2, and EB-3.

For those who qualify, self-petition options like the EB-2 National Interest Waiver allow skilled professionals to pursue permanent residence without an employer sponsor. Our immigration law firm also handle PERM labor certification, I-140 petitions, Requests for Evidence, and employer compliance matters for companies of all sizes.

My wife and I decided to use Francis Law for our marriage based green card case. We wanted to ensure that things were done correctly, especially considering the increased scrutiny that immigration cases are subject to these days. Our case was handled well and we always received responses to our questions. They did a professional job and we received approval from USCIS for the green card in a timely manner. We would definitely recommend using this firm for your immigration needs.

Coming from a previous awful experience with a different law firm, I can honestly say with just the first meeting I had with Dr. Jae Francis, I could see the difference. I came to Dr. Jae with little hope and with doub, but he completely change my mind with how much he cared and seeing the attention he payed to everything I said, the way he reassure me and my family that we would try he’s best to help out gave me peace of mind.

Francis Law Center took a very difficult process (i.e. getting my wife & two daughters a marriage visa/green card) and made it go so much more smoothly. For those that have have not gone through this process, it is very cumbersome and downright scary. Francis Law Center, with huge kudos to Jae and our para legals Alex and Grace, made this tiresome process go much more smoothly. Grace was particularly awesome at the very end, as many last minute items came up that she handled extremely professionally. THANK YOU FRANCIS LAW CENTER, especially Alex, Grace & Jae

My family has trusted Francis Law Center for two completely different immigration cases, and we are incredibly grateful for the results. My own case was marriage-based. I had DACA and had previously traveled with Advance Parole, so I was able to adjust my status without leaving the United States. Attorney Jae Francis guided me through every step of the process, making everything clear, organized, and surprisingly stress-free. The entire process was smooth, efficient, and I successfully received my permanent resident card. My father’s case was much more complex and included an immigration waiver. His petition was through his U.S. citizen son, and unfortunately, he had initially started the process with a notary, which created several complications. Attorney Francis took over the case midway through, carefully untangled the issues, and guided our family through a much longer and more challenging process. They conducted extensive research to make sure they fully understood every aspect of the case and developed the best strategy possible. During the waiting period, we would have appreciated a little more proactive follow-up and communication. We understand the firm was going through a restructuring process at the time, which likely contributed to some delays, so we tried to be patient. Despite that, Attorney Francis remained committed to my father’s case, and we’re happy to report that he attended his immigrant visa interview in Ciudad Juárez just last week and was approved for his green card. That is no small victory, especially under the current immigration climate. One thing I really appreciate is that they offer free consultations and are upfront about their fees. Transparency is important, especially when you’re making a significant financial investment and choosing legal representation that can truly make the difference between successfully obtaining legal status and losing the opportunity to remain with your family in the United States. Overall, Attorney Jae Francis is knowledgeable, honest, and thorough.
