H-1B Visa Attorneys in Woodbridge

A Law Firm with 20+ Years of Experience

The H-1B visa allows foreign nationals to work in the United States on a temporary basis. Although it sounds straightforward enough, the process to obtain an H-1B visa is far more complex and challenging than it may seem. Only specialty workers with special skills in certain industries are qualified for these visas, and they last only 6 years, at the most.
