I was employed as Senior Special Agent Criminal Investigator for the US Department of Homeland Security and the US Department of Justice for over 26 years. As a Special Agent I worked in all aspects of the immigration mission both criminally and administratively.
After leaving the US Government I was a founding partner of Alliant Law Group, LLC and currently oversee the business and operation of the firm.The Alliant Law Group, LLC is a client-focused firm. We are dedicated to working with our clients to resolve difficult and challenging legal issues. We pride ourselves on providing quality professional services to all our clients. We’re up-to-date on the latest legal technologies that can help make your immigration process smooth and efficient and we’re dedicated to working faster, being more knowledgeable, and producing superior results.
We specialize in immigration law, federal criminal defense and federal appellate litigation. We represent both individual and corporate clients in all 50 states and in dozens of countries around the world.
The United States immigration system is a vast, complex system that changes frequently. Individuals and organizations seeking immigration goals are well-advised to work with an experienced legal team that focuses on this complex area of law.
Further, federal offenses are completely different from crimes committed at the state level. These cases are handled in a different court that uses its own set of procedures. In addition, people who are convicted of a federal crime face the prospect of much more severe penalties. If you are facing charges for any federal offense, it is essential that you seek the advice of an experienced federal criminal defense attorney immediately.At Alliant Law Group, LLC we provide aggressive, thorough representation to people who have been charged with a federal crime. Our attorneys are admitted to try cases in the Federal District Court and we are prepared to defend you against any charge you may be facing.
Each client is treated with compassion, care, and genuine concern.
