Get help with immediate relative petitions in Florida.
Filing an immediate relative petition is an important step in bringing your loved ones to the U.S. Our experienced bilingual immigration attorneys at Coleman Law Group are here to guide you through the petition process and help you reunite your family in the United States of America.
If you are a U.S. citizen, you can help your closest family members get a visa to live in the U.S. This is called an immediate relative petition. These visas are always available. This means your family members can get their green card faster and with fewer delays.
Your immediate relatives are your husband or wife, your parents, and your unmarried children or stepchildren under the age of 21.
At Coleman Law Group, we make the immediate relative petition process easy by guiding you through every step.
We understand that your dream is to unite your family in the United States of America permanently. Our attorneys have one goal- to make that dream a reality. We work tirelessly to help make filing an immigrant petition for an immediate relative of a U.S. citizen as straightforward as possible.
