Inadmissibility &
Immigration Waivers
We represent clients seeking relief from inadmissibility due to prior immigration violations, unlawful presence, or certain criminal or security grounds.
Our attorneys handle all major waiver types—including Form I-601, I-601A, and related relief—developing legal arguments and supporting evidence to demonstrate eligibility and extreme hardship where applicable.
Deportation & Removal Defense
For individuals in removal proceedings, we provide full representation before immigration courts and the Board of Immigration Appeals. We identify all potential forms of relief—asylum, adjustment of status, cancellation of removal, and waivers—and advocate to prevent deportation or secure lawful return options.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get a green card if I served in SEPAH or IRGC?
Waivers are only available for nonimmigrant visas, not green cards. However, mandatory service may allow limited relief if clearly documented.
How do I know if I’m subject to OFAC sanctions?
All U.S. persons—including citizens and residents—must comply with OFAC rules. We can conduct a sanctions screening to confirm your status.
What’s the difference between I-601 and I-601A waivers?
I-601 applies to most inadmissibility grounds; I-601A allows provisional approval for unlawful presence before departing the U.S.
Can I appeal a deportation order?
Yes, you have 30 days to appeal to the Board of Immigration Appeals after an immigration judge’s decision.
