I look like YOU. I talk like YOU. I am YOU. As a Jamaican immigrant in the USA I understand, I am your Caribbean connection. My accent, language, history, culture are all yours. So I know how to represent you. I know first hand the anxiety you feel as you go through the immigration process. Are you filing for your husband, wife, fiance, kids, parents or brothers and sisters? Is the process getting you down or confusing you? I will fight for you. If you need a visitor’s visa, student visa or a work permit, I will help you. With almost 15 years experience as a lawyer I can help you prove your case. When you are filing and need documents from “home” I know the local legal system. I was a prosecutor and a defense Attorney, so I have the experience needed to present your case and also the understanding of what documents you need.
I regularly give talks on the law about lawyers and the law, about dos and don’ts for immigration filings on the radio, about knowing your rights under different Jamaican laws on Facebook and on immigration youtube, as well as dos and don’ts for business owners on zoom. I volunteer with several legal, business, children and community service organizations in Jamaica and in the USA. I also write a lot of “How to Dos” to show you how to get the legal system to help you.
Law is complicated matter. It can cause you a big problem
if you ignore it. Let us help you!
Always keep your original documents safe.
Do not share confidential information unless you are sure of the identity of the requestor
Always keep a copy of documents filed for US immigration cases and any Jamaican case documents.
Ask your lawyer to explain anything you do not understand, slowly and carefully.
Do not sign a document unless you fully understand it and ask for a copy after you have signed it.
That depends on when the sponsor gets a notice from immigration to say that they are ready for those fees. A lot has to happen before this step is even reached.
Generally that is not possible. Citizens and legal permanent residents cannot petition for a niece or nephew. If they are under the age of 18 you can adopt them legally and then petition for them.
