Spoken by our attorney and staff
Many Korean immigrants we meet have heard the same advice for years: marry a citizen, wait it out, or leave. Sometimes that advice came from a friend, sometimes from someone who benefits from them staying quiet, like an employer or a spouse.
Federal immigration law includes protections that do not depend on anyone else's sponsorship or approval. A short conversation in Korean is often enough to find out whether one of them fits your situation.
Four practice areas, one team that can walk you through each of them in Korean.
FAMILY-BASED IMMIGRATION
Spousal green cards, adjustment of status, K-1 fiancé visas and petitions for parents and children. We know how to prepare Korean family registers and civil documents so they meet USCIS requirements.
VAWA · U VISA
If a citizen or green card holder spouse, parent or adult child has abused you, VAWA may let you apply on your own, without their knowledge. If you were the victim of a serious crime and helped police, a U visa may be available.
T VISA
If you came to the U.S. for a job or visa that was promised to you, and someone then used threats, debt or your own documents to keep you working, you may qualify for a T visa, even if you are out of status today.
SIJS · CITIZENSHIP
Special Immigrant Juvenile Status can help unmarried young people under 21 who could not rely on a parent. For long-time green card holders, we also handle naturalization and green card renewals.
Licensed in Washington, D.C. · Practicing Federal Immigration Law
Before she represented anyone, Attorney Hayoon Kane went through the U.S. immigration process as an immigrant herself. That experience shapes how she works: plain explanations, no assumptions, and steady communication from start to finish.
Korean is spoken at every level of the firm, from the client care coordinators who answer your first message to the attorney who signs your filings.
Every step can happen in Korean, English or a mix of both.
Call, text or send a KakaoTalk message. Tell us the safest way and time to contact you, and we will stick to it.
Attorney Kane reviews your history and tells you which paths fit, which do not, and what each one costs, before you commit to anything.
When USCIS sends a notice or sets a deadline, we explain what it means in Korean and what happens next.
Our office is in Las Vegas, but immigration is federal law, so we represent Korean clients wherever they live. Most of them work with us entirely by phone, video and KakaoTalk.
Our office is at 6671 S Las Vegas Blvd, Suite 210. If you live nearby, you are welcome to meet us in person; otherwise, video works just as well.
Many of our Korean clients live in Los Angeles, Orange County, San Diego and the Bay Area. Their cases are handled remotely from the first conversation to the final decision, with no office visit required.
Seattle, Atlanta, New York, Dallas, Chicago, Hawaii and beyond. Federal immigration cases do not depend on your state, so we can represent you wherever you live. For SIJS, we coordinate the state court step with local counsel.
Can my whole case be handled in Korean?
Yes. You can speak with us, review your statement and get case updates in Korean. USCIS requires English filings, so we prepare those for you and walk you through what each document says before it is submitted.
I don't live in Nevada. Can you still represent me?
Yes. Immigration cases are decided under federal law, so your state of residence does not limit which licensed immigration attorney you hire. Most clients outside Las Vegas work with us by phone, video call and KakaoTalk.
My visa expired years ago. Is it too late?
Not necessarily. Whether you have options depends on how you entered, your family relationships and what has happened to you since. Some paths, such as VAWA, the U visa and the T visa, were designed for people who are already out of status. We review your history before suggesting any filing.
Will anyone be told that I contacted a lawyer?
No. What you share with us stays between you and the firm, and we never reach out to an employer, spouse or family member without your permission. We also ask how you want to be contacted, so messages do not reach a shared phone or inbox.
Is there a fee to talk with you?
Your first call or KakaoTalk conversation with our client care team has no charge. Attorney consultations do have a fee, and we tell you the amount before anything is scheduled.
Can I contact you on behalf of my parents or spouse?
Yes. Many first messages come from an adult child or spouse who speaks English. Once we understand the situation, we can speak directly with your family member in Korean.
Send a message in Korean or English and our client care team will get back to you. If an attorney consultation makes sense, we will tell you the fee before you book.
