Immigration Attorneys in Los Angeles
Resolving Complicated Immigration Issues
Immigration law has gone through major changes in recent years. California and the federal government have been in debate over how these laws should be enforced, which has made an already complex situation even more confusing for thousands of immigrants living in the state.
At the Law Firm of Anish Vashistha, APLC, we provide guidance and support with a variety of immigration matters. Our knowledgeable attorneys serve clients throughout the Los Angeles and Bay area. We know what a difficult situation our clients are in, and keep them informed of any changes in state and federal immigration laws so they can take steps to protect their status.
Many people are unsure whether they need to work with an immigration attorney or try to handle the process on their own, and we take the time during an initial conversation to explain how the law applies to their specific circumstances. Because we regularly appear before immigration courts in downtown Los Angeles and throughout Southern California, we understand how local procedures, court schedules, and agency practices can affect the timing and strategy for a case. By carefully reviewing your background, goals, and any prior filings, we can recommend a realistic path forward and outline what documents, deadlines, and potential risks you should be aware of before moving ahead.
We practice in the following immigration areas:
- Appeals
- Business & Investor Visas
- Citizenship
- Criminal Defense
- Deportation & Removal Defense
- Employment Immigration
- Family-Based Immigration
- Green Cards
- T Visa
- U Visa
- VAWA
Mistakes or oversights in immigration filings could jeopardize a person’s ability to stay in this country. We are aggressive defenders of clients facing deportation. Being uprooted from your home is a tragic experience no one should have to experience. Our team can be your dedicated advocate in court to make sure this doesn’t happen.
When you work with a Los Angeles Immigration Lawyer from our firm, we walk you through every step of the process so you understand what will happen at each stage of your case. We carefully prepare you for hearings, interviews, and requests for evidence, drawing on our experience with judges, officers, and government lawyers in the local immigration system. For clients who are detained at facilities in the Los Angeles area, we coordinate closely with family members and make sure bond and custody issues are addressed as quickly and thoroughly as possible.
Choosing the Right Help for Your Case
Deciding who should represent you can be one of the most important choices you make in your immigration journey, especially in a busy city like Los Angeles where there are many options. During an initial consultation, we discuss your goals, review any prior applications or court dates, and identify red flags such as criminal history or missed deadlines that could affect your case. We also explain the difference between working with a licensed immigration lawyer and relying on unaccredited preparers, so you understand the risks involved in each option. By the end of that conversation, you should have a clearer sense of your options and what it would look like to move forward with our firm.
Because we routinely handle matters before the Los Angeles Immigration Court and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services offices in the region, we can give you realistic expectations about timing, possible outcomes, and the types of evidence that are most helpful. We encourage potential clients to bring any notices from the court, documents from ICE, or letters from USCIS so we can spot urgent issues, such as upcoming hearings or filing deadlines. Our goal is to help you make an informed decision about whether to hire counsel, what type of relief to pursue, and how to prepare yourself and your family for the steps ahead.
