Immigration Law

Offit Kurman’s immigration law attorneys advise businesses, families, and individuals on the full range of U.S. immigration matters. The team collaborates with employers seeking to recruit international talent, investors exploring opportunities in the United States, and families navigating the process of reunification. Services include citizenship and naturalization, employment-based immigration, and family- and marriage-based immigration. Attorneys provide practical solutions tailored to each client’s needs, ensuring compliance with U.S. immigration law while focusing on long-term goals.

Citizenship

Citizenship represents a significant step in a person’s commitment to the United States. Our team guides lawful permanent residents through the naturalization process, from determining eligibility to preparing for the civics exam and final interview. Attorneys assess each client’s unique circumstances, identify potential challenges, and ensure that applications meet all requirements under the Immigration and Nationality Act. Representation covers applications based on lawful permanent residence, marriage to a U.S. citizen, or military service. The firm prioritizes clear communication and thorough preparation at every stage of the citizenship process.

Employment Immigration

Immigration attorneys advise both employers and professionals on employment-based immigration options. The practice assists U.S. companies in hiring and retaining international talent, while also helping foreign nationals pursue work opportunities in the United States. Services include guidance on non-immigrant visas, such as H-1B, H-2A, H-2B, L, O-1, P-1, E-1, E-2, TN, and R-1, as well as immigrant options, including PERM labor certification, EB-1 petitions for executives and individuals with extraordinary ability, and National Interest Waivers. Attorneys manage the application process before U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and the Department of Labor, ensuring accurate filings and efficient case handling.

Family and Marriage Immigration

The practice group represents clients in family- and marriage-based immigration matters with a focus on both compliance and sensitivity to personal circumstances. Attorneys handle spousal visas (CR-1, IR-1), fiancé visas (K-1), and related adjustment of status applications. Guidance includes preparing affidavits of support, reviewing documentation, and providing representation during interviews. Family-based immigration services also extend to sponsoring parents, children, and other relatives under the family preference system. Our attorneys work to facilitate reunification while addressing potential legal challenges and ensuring that applications are managed efficiently and effectively.

G2. Designing Secure Practices: Cybersecurity, Data Privacy, Contractual Provisions, and Insurance Risks for Architects (4:00 PM - 5:30 PM) Architects and design professionals increasingly rely on cloud platforms, BIM software, and digital tools to manage sensitive data, creating cybersecurity and privacy risks. A single incident can trigger liability claims, regulatory obligations, reputational harm, and insurance challenges. Yet many firms underestimate how contracts, insurance, and internal practices intersect during a breach. This program offers legal and insurance perspectives on cyber risk in architecture, examining liability exposure, risky contract provisions, and mitigation strategies. A cyber insurance expert will explain policy responses, coverage gaps, coordination with professional liability, and best practices for aligning insurance with contractual risk and protecting firms from evolving cyber threats. Learning Objectives: Identify key cybersecurity and data privacy risks faced by architecture firms and explain how these risks can impact professional liability and project outcomes. Analyze common contractual provisions to determine which clauses may increase exposure to cyber incidents and propose strategies to mitigate these risks. Evaluate the scope and limitations of cyber insurance policies, including coordination with professional liability coverage, to determine how a policy would respond in a breach scenario. Develop actionable risk management strategies by integrating legal, contractual, and insurance considerations to protect sensitive client and project data.
