Family Immigration

New Orleans & Lafayette Family-Based Immigration Lawyer

Uniting families and helping them stay together is a primary focus of our practice at Gahagan Law Firm, LLC, The Immigration Law Firm of New Orleans. While other family-based immigration lawyers help their clients complete forms and navigate processes, our family visa lawyers go further. When problems and injustices arise, family immigration attorney Michael Gahagan has the proven ability to file suit against the government and resolve them favorably in federal court.

We provide counsel to various clients in New Orleans and Lafayette who are in need of hardship waivers, RFEs, and support for interviews and appeals. Our family visa lawyer fights delays, challenges agency errors, and works with urgency when loved ones face travel bans or risk separation. Each case receives personal attention and long-term strategic planning from start to finish.

Attentive, Full-Spectrum Legal Representation You Can Trust

You can count on direct attention from a caring, dedicated New Orleans family immigration lawyer at our firm. Mr. Gahagan will personally answer your call or return it as promptly as possible. We provide clear information and action-oriented representation in matters involving:

  • Marriage and fiancé visas. Marrying a U.S. citizen does not in itself entitle a person to stay in the country lawfully, and we help ensure all documents are filed and proper steps are completed to obtain a visa or permanent resident status.
  • K-3 visas. Obtaining a nonimmigrant K-3 visa for a foreign-citizen wife or husband is often the fastest way to gain lawful entry, and then additional steps can be handled together in the U.S.
  • Immigration waivers. We help people facing inadmissibility bars and the threat of deportation pursue all available options for lawful entry or avoidance of removal.
  • Adjustments of status. Many people who reside in the United States on visas must file timely petitions for lawful permanent residency “a green card”, and we can provide a New Orleans family visa lawyer to assist with all aspects of this process.
  • A broad range of other family immigration problems and concerns. Attorney Michael Gahagan provides skillful, aggressive deportation defense and actively pursues federal immigration litigation when errors and injustices obstruct families’ immigration goals.
