Family Law

• Adoption
  It is common for families to adopt children from outside the United States. These international adoptions can be lengthy and expensive. Working with a Tampa immigration attorney can put all of the necessary components into place, including determining eligibility for international adoption, ensuring the child can be adopted, and aiding in filing the necessary legal documents. Our law firm can help prevent legal and financial stress, and bring families together.
• Legal Separation
  A marriage that is under two years old is subject to residency restrictions that expire after two years unless it is petitioned and replaced by Legal Permanent Residency status. Residency restrictions can be altered by a K visa or a V visa, depending on the needs of the family. Failure to abide by these rules can see the foreign spouse subject to deportation. If you or a loved one has any questions about marriage-based immigration, discuss your case with a lawyer well-versed in immigration law.

Immigration Law

• Citizenship and Naturalization
• Family Immigration
  The first step to becoming a citizen of the United States is to become a Legal Permanent Resident, also known as a Green Card holder. Under current law, citizens and Legal Permanent Residents can sponsor family members to legally live and work in the United States until the family member is granted residency. For citizens, a K visa is the best option for bringing loved ones to this country. At Dehra Miotke, our Tampa K visa immigration lawyers assist clients with family-based immigration sponsorships that allow additional opportunities for family members.
• Employment Immigration
  Immigrating to the United States comes with a vast range of privileges and rights. One of the most popular ways to acquire permanent immigration is via employment.
