California Immigration Attorneys

Asylum - Green Cards - Citizenship - Visas - Deportation Hearings

With offices in Los Angeles and West Covina, California, the immigration law firm of Hill, Piibe & Villegas handles all areas of immigration law, with an emphasis on asylum, deportation appeals, and defense in immigration court.

Our immigration attorneys have a combined 30+ years of immigration court experience. We handle an average of six cases a day in immigration court and help more than 1,000 people a year to get green cards and citizenship.

Green Cards, Visas, and Citizenship

We prepare accurate, complete paperwork for U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), including citizenship and naturalization applications, work permits, visa applications, waivers and green card applications. Although this paperwork is available to the public, it can be difficult for the average person to complete and file correctly. The key to successful applications is thorough guidance from a seasoned immigration attorney who can help you avoid pitfalls, and save you time and money.

If you have already had a problem with a visa application or green card, or you have an unresolved old deportation order, we can assist with motions to reopen an old case, seek a waiver, or appeal the decision.

Asylum

This area of the law is always changing and new grounds for asylum are developed regularly. A good California asylum lawyer keeps up with new laws and will present it in writing and in court so that your application will fall under one of the accepted categories for asylum.

Representing You in Deportation Hearings

Our attorneys handle many cases every day so we are very familiar with all the immigration judges, the court staff and with court procedures. We have handled thousands of deportation hearings over the years. If your family member has been placed in an ICE detention center (Mira Loma, El Centro or Eloy), we can assist in obtaining a hearing at the center.

We will fully explain to you what is happening with your case and what strategies we can use to help you. We will help you prepare your application and filings, interview you and your witnesses to help prepare testimony, speak for you before the immigration judge, and handle correspondence with the court.

Resolving Problems with a Criminal Record

The immigration lawyers at Hill, Piibe & Villegas have helped hundreds of immigrants who have been denied a green card or threatened with deportation because of a current or past criminal charge. Contact us to ask how our immigration attorneys can help with your case.
