Green Cards


   Lawful Permanent Residents, or Green Card holders, have many benefits not available to non-immigrant visa holders and other immigrants.  Green Card holders have more rights when the government attempts removal.  Green Card holders have the ability to become U.S. citizens after a certain period of time residing in the United States as a permanent resident. 
   Obtaining a Green Card appears to be a simply procedure involving filling out forms.  However, there are many traps that can cause not only a denial of the application, but also criminal prosecution and/or removal.  The Immigration and Nationality Act, and other immigration laws, are extremely complex and they change constantly.  Don't risk making a fatal mistake in your application process.  Call us at Shorstein & Lasnetski at 904-642-3332 for a free initial consultation so you can decide whether to proceed alone, or with the help of an attorney.
