This firm can help you in all immigration matters such as deportation defense, family visa petitions, employment visa petitions, motions to reopen, appeals, federal court litigation and much more. It is important to have quality representation when defending against deportation or asking an Immigration Judge to grant a bond for an individual so that he or she can be released from immigration custody. In certain cases, relief from removal (deportation) is available. This relief comes in the form of political asylum; cancellation of removal; and waivers or pardons under certain sections of the Immigration and Nationality Act. When your liberty is at stake, you need a qualified attorney who will represent you aggressively before USCIS and ICE. If you have been arrested or convicted for a criminal offense and you are not a United States citizen, you could face deportation from the United States. It is critically important that you have aggressive, competent, legal counsel on your side. This firm has extensive experience representing men and women in immigration proceedings. If you are in removal proceedings, you need an attorney with the skill and experience to protect your interests. This firm knows the dangers faced by men and women involved in removal proceedings. We know that deportation often leads to persecution and torture. We are committed to protecting our clients by providing aggressive representation in immigration matters.
At the Law Offices of Nerlin Ontivero, PA, we help clients file applications for residency, waivers, motions to reopen, and applications for relief from deportation under the Immigration and Nationality Act. If you have green card issues, or if you were detained for removal proceedings, call this office today. Help is just a phone call away.

    Employment-based immigrant visas are based upon categories such as:

    • Extraordinary Ability of Aliens
    • Outstanding Researchers and Professionals
    • Professional Talent
    • Multinational Executives and Managers
    • Investors and Employment Creation

    Employment-based non-immigrant (temporary) visas are based upon categories such as:

    • H-3 trainee
    • TN professional under NAFTA

    Filing the appropriate visa application requires a firm understanding of the goals of both the foreign national employee and the business seeking to hire a foreign national. The unique facts of each situation will determine which visa to apply for and the necessary information and documentation that are required to be furnished to the USCIS.

    An experienced immigration attorney from our office will help you prepare your case. If you have an immigration concern involving employment-based visas or residency, an attorney from the Law Offices of Nerlin Ontivero, PA can provide you with professional advice.

  • Deportation Defense
    • Time is of the essence when a person is detained by the immigration authorities. Depending on each situation, the authorities commence deportation procedures as soon as they take a person into custody. In many cases, the person will be transferred out of Florida to another facility in the United States. Representation by a local attorney may prevent this from happening. It is imperative that an attorney contact the immigration authorities to inform them that the detained person is represented by counsel. It is important to seek advice of counsel before signing any documents while in custody. Some people inadvertently sign their own deportation orders.
