"Immigration flowed toward America in a series of continuous waves. Every new migration gathered force, built momentum, reached a crest, and then merged imperceptibly into the great tide of people already on our shores."
A Nation of Immigrants
by John F. Kennedy, p 10.

The laws governing visas and U.S. immigration are complex. Immigration and citizenship laws, policies and procedures are ever changing. The processing of petitions, applications, and visas involves multiple government agencies, each with its own set of rules and requirements. Successfully navigating this complicated labyrinth can be daunting and time-consuming.
Gilbert Law guides clients in selecting the best options for achieving individual immigration-related goals and minimizing system-created difficulties and delays. The firm offers services in most areas of immigration law, processing cases before agencies in the United States and at U.S. embassies and consulates abroad, and handling appeals and Federal litigation. The firm advises businesses in compliance and record-keeping: two corporate compliance areas that have become a priority with the Federal government.
