I have the best job in the World. I help people to settle in the country where they want to live, not where they happened to be born. I am an immigration attorney and I enjoy every minute of it.
When not in my office, I enjoy exploring the World with my family, reading, and blogging.
You can find my legal blog in Russian at https://logofilka.com and my vlog with regular answers to the most current questions about immigration at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHVALuOETCQiBuLd8plUxQg?view_as=subscriber

Think global!
Practice areas
Practice is limited to the Immigration and Nationality Laws. We represent individuals and business before administrative agencies, such as the USCIS, the Department of State and U.S. consulates, and the Department of Labor and immigration courts, thus focusing our efforts on this narrow, but highly complex area of law.
We assist individuals in structuring aspects of business transactions that are pertinent to immigration benefits. This includes incorporation and registration of business entities, subscription agreements, and similar documentations.
