Franchise Law

Immigration & Naturalization Law
Immigration law serves as a gatekeeper for the nation’s border: it determines who may enter, how long they may stay and when they must leave.  Federal immigration laws cover a number of issues regarding the rights and duties of foreign nationals in the United States: defining an individual’s immigration status and immigration options, determining if a person is in the country illegally, and controlling whether or not an alien (an “alien” is any person who is not a citizen or a national of the United States) can be deported.  There are different categories of aliens: resident and nonresident, immigrant and non-immigrant, documented and undocumented (“illegal”).  The laws also provide a means by which certain aliens can become naturalized citizens with full rights of citizenship.  The advice of a skilled New York City Immigration lawyer is highly recommended for these kind of issues.

Injury Law

Under a legal rule known as the “statute of limitations,” any lawsuit arising from an injury must be filed within a certain time limit or the injured person’s legal claim will be barred and his or her right to sue will be lost forever.  The following is a list of some types of injuries that could require the legal assistance of an experienced New York City Injury lawyer.
