Attorney in Los Angeles: Investor Visas and Green Cards

Experienced Representation throughout the San Fernando Valley

If you are a foreign national and are considering making a business investment in the United States, you need an experienced immigration and visa lawyer to protect your rights. You may be required to obtain a specific type of visa. You may be entitled to permanent resident status if your investment meets certain criteria.

At the law offices of Glenn N. Kawahara, in Los Angeles, I handle all matters involving immigration and visas, including investor visas. My team has over 30 years of combined legal experience. Contact me to arrange for a free initial consultation.

Investor Visas

The United States has entered into treaties with many foreign countries regarding private trade or investment in business enterprises in America. These treaties generally allow for private or foreign investment if the appropriate investor visas are obtained.

At my offices, we work closely with foreign nationals who need the following types of investor visas:

  • E-1 Investor Visas. I handle all paperwork, hearings and other legal matters for individuals who seek an E-1 visa to conduct trade between the United States and their home country.
  • E-2 Investor Visas. I also provide legal representation to investors who need an E-2 visa so that they can operate a business enterprise in the United States.

Green Cards through Business Investment

If you are a foreign national who has made an investment in a business in the United States, you may qualify for a green card if the investment leads to the creation or maintenance of a certain number of jobs. If your investment qualifies you for a green card, you may seek permanent resident status for yourself, your spouse, and any unmarried children.

At my offices, I protect your interests throughout the process, from the time you consider making a business investment in America until your green card has been issued. I will make certain that you understand the requirements for compliance and that your investment is properly structured to allow you to get all the benefits to which you are entitled. If your green card is denied, I will advocate for you in any administrative or other proceedings to help you secure permanent resident status.

For experienced representation in all legal matters related to investor visas, contact my offices to schedule a free initial consultation. My offices are open from 9 am until 6 pm, Monday through Friday and evening and weekend appointments are available upon request. I offer payment plans to qualified clients.
