Puerto Rico and Las Vegas Business Visas Lawyers

Companies in Las Vegas, Puerto Rico and nationwide looking to sponsor foreign nationals so that the business can become established or expand often need experienced immigration guidance.

The U.S. welcomes many highly skilled and talented people to the country every year but the process of obtaining a business visa through the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) can be challenging. There are multiple business visa types and even selecting the right category can be difficult.

The Law Offices of Ariadne Berrios, LLC, can help. Immigration is all we do—and you can trust our experience of helping companies secure valid U.S. business visas for their people.

Exciting opportunities for U.S. business visas

Businesses, investors, and professionals can benefit from the opportunities available for employment-based immigration to the U.S.

Regardless of the administration in the White House, the USCIS is always interested in stimulating the economy by attracting foreign businesses, entrepreneurs, and highly skilled professionals.

For instance, the USCIS “Entrepreneurs in Residence” program was created to enhance the adjudication process of business-immigration visa categories and, ultimately, expedite the approval of eligible petitions for investors and entrepreneurs.

At The Law Offices of Ariadne Berrios, LLC, we advise business leaders and entrepreneurs on the available visa categories to help them become established and expand in the U.S. to achieve their business goals.

For highly skilled and talented and skilled individuals, we can even secure green cards without a U.S. company having to file a petition for a business visa, as is required for most employment-based visas.
