Immigration Counsel · Chantilly, Virginia
Immigration Attorney Serving Chantilly, VA
Chantilly's character is defined by two things — the data-center build-out along Route 28 and the intelligence and defense workforce that lives along the Loudoun-Fairfax line. We handle a substantial volume of H-1B, EB-2, and EB-3 cases for the engineers building and staffing those data centers, and we handle the EB-1A and EB-2 NIW self-petitions that cleared technical professionals often turn to when an employer-sponsored path is too slow or too dependent on staying with one company. For data-center operations specialists whose work is largely on-site and tied to specific colocation facilities, we file H-1B amendments and LCA postings carefully so a worksite move does not create a status gap.
Chantilly's South Asian and East Asian communities also bring a steady flow of family work — I-130 petitions for spouses, parents, and siblings, K-1 fiancé visas, marriage-based adjustment, and I-751 petitions. We file N-400 naturalization for clients whose residency requirements are met, and we plan for the timing of foreign travel during the residency calculation so a long trip home doesn't push the five-year clock back to zero. For Chantilly clients whose H-1B priority dates in EB-2 India and EB-3 India remain years out, we file concurrent EB-1A and EB-2 NIW petitions and document the independent professional record so the green card path is not tied to a single PERM filing or a single employer.
For Korean, Vietnamese, and Indian small-business owners along the Chantilly retail corridor, we handle E-2 treaty investor filings, EB-1C multinational manager petitions, and PERM labor certifications. We also handle EB-5 investor filings for clients whose investment scale and source-of-funds documentation support a direct or regional-center filing under the Reform and Integrity Act. For Chantilly's Afghan SIV holders and Operation Allies Welcome arrivals, we handle adjustment, asylum, and family reunification petitions and coordinate with the local resettlement agencies and pro bono partners that have built up since 2021. We serve Chantilly and the surrounding communities of Centreville, Herndon, Fairfax, and Sterling.
