Award-winning
U.S. Immigration Attorneys

We are highly specialized. We only handle corporate, investment & family immigration cases and we have done so successfully for 30 years. During this time our attorneys have advised over 25,000 clients and maintained a consistent success rate of over 99% visa approvals year over year. Led by award-winning attorney, Anu Gupta, and a team of dedicated professionals, we are committed to helping our clients succeed.

We believe in winning. To us, a client is not a case file; it is the American dream. Our client has a life that will be directly impacted by their immigration status. Our client is a company actively growing their founder’s sweat and tears into the Fortune 500 company. We think it is our privilege to help you achieve that dream. We help our corporate clients by helping you bring the right workforce to grow your business. For our individual clients, we help you file for your EB1A and NIW petitions so you can achieve independence and be able to grow professionally in the direction you choose. For our family-based clients, it is to help you achieve your dream of reuniting with your family members.

Because our team is energized by this deep commitment to getting your visa approved, our team goes well above and beyond a 9-to-5 mindset. Our team, with a mix of legal and business experts, has a deep understanding of the operational and functional realities of how your industry is run. This helps us create visa petitions that not only meet the legal standards, but exceed them.

We analyze your situation, review surrounding circumstances, do a deep dive into well-established immigration laws, and use the ever-changing legal and business landscape. With 30 years of experience, there is always a case just like yours that we have obtained a visa approval for. And when needed, we put our creative hats on to build a cohesive air-tight narrative that will ensure an approved visa.

We believe that you don’t lose till you give up. We are polite when the government asks tough questions, but we never give up. Our sterling record speaks for itself. For the past 30 years, we have achieved approvals on over 99% of our petitions. We believe every case is winnable. Every visa is approvable. And we believe it is our responsibility to get your visa approved.

Immigration Desk has a sterling record of 99% visa approval across thousands of immigration cases over 30 years, covering employment-based petitions, investment-based visas and green cards, and family-based cases. The result comes from building each case’s strategy before filing, breaking down RFEs into their specific parts rather than answering them generically, and running every petition through several rounds of senior review before it goes to the USCIS.

Always. We love technology, especially if it helps us hone our strategy and find the path to speak to the AI tools that the government uses. The government is increasingly using AI-assisted technologies to review petitions. It makes sense that we use that to our advantage and use the same tools to whet the visa petition before we file, so we are providing the same logic that the government’s AI tool is seeking. At the same time, we are mindful that the machine has not yet evolved to the level of 30 years of an attorney’s experience. We merge our legal smarts with top-of-the-line technology to create petitions that will win.

The Immigration Desk team aims to draft petitions that get approved without RFEs, and we work hard to incorporate all the changes the government is making to make this happen. However, there are times when the government targets specific types of visas and sends generic RFEs en masse. When they do, we break each RFE into its smaller underlying questions instead of answering it as one block, then build a specific, evidence-backed argument for every part of the request. Senior attorneys also run dedicated consultations built around H-1B RFEs, which is part of why the firm’s approval rate has held at 99% even on cases other firms consider too difficult to take.

We believe in repetitive, boring grunt work. Every petition is triple checked before we file, including review by senior attorneys. We use AI tools to speed up drafting and review, but the final call always comes from an experienced attorney. On the day of the filing, we check the underlying regulations since legal standards have been changed overnight in the past, and cross-reference AILA’s practice advisories to confirm the filing reflects best practices. This ensures cohesive petitions that get approved swiftly.

Yes. Since 1999, Immigration Desk has been a member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA), the largest professional organization for immigration attorneys in the country. Anu Gupta, Founder & Managing Attorney, has also served as an officer and USCIS committee liaison through AILA, and the firm checks AILA’s practice advisories before every filing to make sure clients get the benefit of the most updated guidance.

Immigration Desk is a super specialized immigration practice. We only handle work, investment and family based visas. Because we have only handled these 3 types of immigration cases in the past 30 years, we have handled every type of challenge that can arise and have successfully received approvals on over 99% of our petitions.

As part of our corporate immigration practice, we routinely file H1s, L1s, O1 and J1 visas and help US corporations file for PERM and non-PERM green cards for their employees. We represent both companies and individuals in all 50 states of the US and worldwide.

Our EB1 and National Interest Waiver practice helps entrepreneurs, scientists, educators, and IT professionals obtain O1 visas, and also self-file green cards. In the past few years, we have helped an increasing number of IT professionals in the AI and data science space, and clients in the energy and engineering sectors obtain their green cards through self-filing. We also love helping extraordinary individuals in other professional fields achieve permanent residency through EB1 or NIW filing.

In our investment immigration practice, we help foreign individuals, companies and high-net-worth individuals set up branch offices in the US, or buy US based businesses and then help process L1, O1, E1 and E2 visas. We also help with the Trump gold card and EB5 investor green cards.

Our family immigration practice comprises helping US citizens and green card holders bring their family members to the US. We help with timing foreign trips (especially for international weddings), help obtain travel and work permits to ensure the process does not unduly interfere with daily living.

And last, but not least, our senior attorneys are sought after for their practical wisdom and strategic advice on getting tough petitions approved. We have often heard clients confess that we got a visa approved that multiple other attorneys could not handle. We offer strategy on how to get petitions approved when you have out-of-status stay or unauthorized work, a criminal act, whether it is a DUI or something more serious. As part of our senior attorney practice, we also help US employers plan their foreign workforce, maintain compliance with Department of Labor and USCIS regulations, and audit I-9 files.

Yes. Immigration Desk files Appeals and Motions to overturn denied cases, and we also provide guidance on resubmitting cases when the USCIS claims that the evidentiary standard was not met in the first filing. Our team, interspersed with business professionals, understands how to draft job descriptions that are true to the position and also meet the legal standards.

Our senior members also help file for waivers to overturn or limit immigration bars caused by drunk driving convictions, visa overstays, and other criminal convictions. At times we are retained to offer opinions on immigration consequences that our clients use to negotiate DUIs and criminal charges down.

Yes. Immigration Desk has a team dedicated to getting EB-1A and National Interest Waiver approved. Our EB1A and NIW practice includes excellent writers with broad backgrounds in different fields. This, combined with strategic guidance provided by our senior attorneys and whetting by our AI tools, helps us craft winning petitions.

Anu Gupta, Founder & Managing Attorney of Immigration Desk, has personally advised or filed visas for more than 25,000 individuals and companies over her career, with a 99% approval rate. We have never really focused on asking clients for reviews, since most of our new clients come from referrals by our previous (very happy) clients. However, we have over 200 reviews that clients submitted on our website and over 40 on Google. With the exception of one where the client rated us a “4,” every review held a rating of 5 stars. That record spans more than 30 years of practicing immigration law.
