What Our Immigration Lawyers Do
Deportation Defense
Our immigration attorneys represent clients in deportation and removal proceedings with skill and dedication. We focus first on preventing deportation whenever possible. When that’s not an option, we work to help clients remain in the United States for as long as the law allows. Using our legal experience and deep understanding of immigration procedures, we pursue every available strategy to achieve the best possible outcome for each client.
Learn how our deportation lawyers protect you from deportation.
Deferred Action for DREAMers
Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), often known as “Deferred Action for DREAMers,” allows certain young immigrants to request temporary protection from deportation and apply for work authorization in the United States. To qualify, you must have been born after June 15, 1981, entered the U.S. before turning 16 and before June 15, 2007, and have maintained continuous residence without long absences or serious criminal convictions. Because DACA eligibility requirements and evidence standards are strict — and the program’s future is uncertain — it’s important to apply as soon as possible. Our immigration attorneys can help you determine if you qualify and guide you through every step of the application process.

Family-Based Immigration
Many families wait too long to begin the immigration process for their loved ones—sometimes until it’s too late. Our immigration attorneys help clients keep their families together in the United States and reunite with relatives living abroad. We assist with fiancé visas, marriage-based green cards, 601 hardship waivers, and family-based immigration petitions. Whether you’re helping a spouse, fiancé, or other family member, we’ll guide you through each step to give your case the best chance of success.
I-601 Hardship Waivers
The I-601 Hardship Waiver allows certain immigrants to become lawful permanent residents of the United States despite periods of unlawful presence—if they can prove that their removal would cause extreme hardship to a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident family member. Because each case is unique and the waiver process can be complex, having experienced legal guidance is essential. Our immigration attorneys can evaluate your situation, explain the I-601 waiver requirements, and help you prepare a strong application to improve your chances of approval.

EB5 Visas
The EB-5 visa program allows eligible investors to obtain lawful permanent residency by making qualifying, job-creating investments in the U.S. economy. This path to a green card can move more quickly than other immigration options, but the requirements are detailed and the financial commitments are significant. Because EB-5 cases can be complex and costly if mishandled, it’s important to work with experienced immigration attorneys who understand the program and its documentation requirements.
Employment-Based Immigration
We assist human resource managers and small business owners in navigating the complex immigration paperwork required to recruit and hire foreign workers. Our firm handles H-1B, L, and J visas, PERM Labor Certification (Reduction in Recruitment), and employment-based immigration categories including EB-1, EB-2, EB-3, and EB-5, as well as petitions for multinational managers and executives. We help employers remain compliant while securing the talent they need to grow.
Asylum Petitions
McGregor represents clients in both affirmative and defensive asylum cases. If you believe you may qualify for asylum, it’s important to speak with an immigration attorney as soon as possible, as most asylum applications must be filed within one year of your arrival in the United States. Our team can evaluate your situation, explain your options, and guide you through each step of the asylum process.
Immigration Appeals
Immigration cases can be complex, and sometimes the outcome is not within the control of even the most experienced attorney. However, many immigration decisions can be appealed to a higher authority. For this reason, we encourage individuals to carefully consider an appeal if they receive an unfavorable decision. Our immigration attorneys handle appeals and can help you evaluate your options and guide you through the next steps.
How the Best Immigration Lawyers Practice Law
Our approach is centered on genuine connection and clear communication. We want our clients to feel informed, supported, and confident as we work together. You will speak directly with an attorney who knows your case and is invested in your outcome—not just a paralegal or assistant. We believe personalized attention makes a meaningful difference, especially when immigration issues create uncertainty and stress. Our goal is to guide you with clarity, compassion, and reliable legal support.
