At Kalita Law Group P.C., we understand that you have a choice. There are many firms and attorneys in Chicago who practice immigration and family law. However, what sets us apart is our personal and individualized approach to family law issues. You will appreciate that qualified lawyer is handling your matter from start to finish. We are committed to providing full value for your investment in legal services.
The immigration process is often confusing, frustrating and difficult to navigate. Although many people attempt to file applications on their own, mistakes can be costly. Immigration law is constantly changing and is always open to new legal interpretations. The United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) is often arbitrary and inconsistent in their decisions on Naturalization and Permanent Residence applications. The process of immigrating through the U.S. consulates overseas is even more uncertain and daunting. At Kalita Law Group P.C., we have successfully represented hundreds of clients at the foreign consulates, before the USCIS and the local immigration District Offices and Immigration courts. We specialize in family immigration, green cards, citizenship and consular processing. We also provide legal representation with bond hearings, removal proceedings, and various issues in immigration court.
In addition to immigration, Kalita Law Group P.C provides personal representation in Family law matters such as divorce, custody, child support and adoption, both foreign and domestic. Unlike like large law firms, we are able to provide individual and personal representation to family members during their most stressful times of separation and child custody, support disputes. Whenever possible, we work towards mutual resolutions of disputes, all the while protecting your legal rights.
Through our knowledge and experience we will tailor solutions to meet your individual needs. You will appreciate the access to attorneys who can answer your calls and questions, not legal assistants who are not prepared to tell you what you need to know. We encourage questions and will keep you apprised of the progress on your case at all times.
