For those born outside of the U.S., the process of becoming an American citizen can be lengthy and complicated. A mistake on a form or an incomplete application can result in significant delays. Having an experienced lawyer by your side throughout the process can mean the difference between a successful application or a denial. We can help you:

  • Determine if you meet eligibility requirements
  • Complete the application forms
  • Prepare for the naturalization interview
  • Stay abreast of any changes to immigration law that could affect your application
  • Correct mistakes from a previous application and reapply if needed
