Understand your options
Family-based, fiancé K-1, employment, entertainment, and investor categories have distinct requirements. Work visas may require an employer petition; certain paths require labor certification. Investor options depend on the category, nationality where relevant, and business activity. Choose a category based on your actual plans, not an assumed processing speed.
Every case begins with a review of the facts, important dates, and available records. George G. Giosmas has been licensed in Florida since 1989 and practices immigration law only. From Hollywood, the office serves Broward County, Fort Lauderdale, Miami-Dade, and South Florida. Remote consultations also allow the firm to serve nationwide and international clients.
How we help
- Family-based visas and fiancé K-1 visas
- Work visas and labor certification
- Entertainment and investor visas
We help identify the questions that need answers before choosing a path. This can include reviewing eligibility, explaining the applicable procedure, and organizing supporting evidence. The scope of representation and fees are discussed before work begins. No evaluation can promise a specific decision or completion date.
Immigration rules may change, and different agencies can be involved in the same matter. An application, a receipt, and an approval do not mean the same thing. During your consultation, explain your goals and ask which steps are necessary, what information is missing, and which dates require attention. Do not disregard a notice while seeking advice.
What to bring to your consultation
- Passport, identification, and travel history.
- Notices, prior applications, and decisions.
- Court records and important deadlines.
- A list of questions and goals.
Keep copies and do not alter documents. If a record is missing, explain that rather than guessing. Do not send Social Security numbers, A-numbers, or confidential records through this website. The office can discuss an appropriate channel after speaking with you. Contact alone does not establish an attorney-client relationship.
