Immigration Consequences of Divorce

If you or your spouse is a foreign national (a citizen of another country), getting a divorce becomes more complicated. Ending the marriage may spell the end of the temporary visa of the "visiting spouse." The visa may be revoked and the foreign national subject to deportation. Accordingly, it's crucial to plan ahead when you begin discussing divorce. Our immigration law experience means your international divorce will not take place in a vacuum; we'll look at the whole picture to consider immigration and child residence issues. We work to preserve your ability to remain in the United States.

Legal separation

Our law firm assists individuals who wish to live apart from a spouse but still remain married. We help with the petition for legal separation, making sure that all the issues involved in a divorce petition are covered. After six months, a legal separation can be converted into an uncontested divorce — most of the paperwork has been completed.
