Immigration Counsel · Ontario, California
Your Immigration Attorney in Ontario, CA
Every package that crosses the Pacific seems to pass through Ontario — the airport, the rail yards, the warehouse miles — and the workforce that moves it all is overwhelmingly an immigrant workforce. Our Ontario practice serves it at every level: family petitions and citizenship for the workers on the floor, U-visas and waivers where life has been harder than it should be, and H-1B and L-1 matters for the supply-chain engineers and logistics managers the industry recruits globally.
We serve Ontario remotely and by appointment across the Inland Empire, with Spanish interpreter support, evening consultations that respect shift schedules, and cases prepared for the San Bernardino Field Office where the region interviews.
Why Ontario Generates the Cases It Does
Ontario moves America's freight — its airport and warehouse complex anchor one of the world's great logistics hubs — with a workforce drawn from across Latin America and, increasingly, Asia.
That mix — Ontario International Airport and the logistics and distribution complex, and the logistics and goods movement, aviation, and manufacturing work that surrounds them — shapes the immigration matters Ontario clients bring us: Family Petitions (I-130), Naturalization & Citizenship, Marriage-Based Green Card, and U-Visa Crime Victims lead the caseload.
The Communities We Serve in Ontario
Ontario's immigration story belongs to its people — Mexican-American and Central American working families and growing Asian-American neighborhoods. We work with certified interpreters where needed, offer evening video consultations that respect work and family schedules, and treat every case file with the privacy these matters deserve. We serve clients across Ontario and greater Los Angeles remotely and by appointment as we expand our Southern California presence — immigration practice is federal, so your case is filed and argued the same way wherever counsel sits.
Family Immigration in Ontario
Family cases are the steady heart of our Ontario docket: marriage-based green cards, I-130 petitions for parents, spouses, children, and siblings, K-1 fiancé(e) visas, I-751 removal of conditions, and N-400 naturalization for longtime residents ready to take the oath. For mixed-status households we handle I-601A provisional waivers and consular processing strategy so a single appointment abroad does not separate a family for months. We serve clients across Ontario and greater Los Angeles remotely and by appointment as we expand our Southern California presence — immigration practice is federal, so your case is filed and argued the same way wherever counsel sits.
Work Visas & Green Cards in Ontario
Ontario's logistics and goods movement, aviation, and manufacturing employers recruit globally, and we handle the immigration work that follows: H-1B petitions, amendments, and transfers; L-1A and L-1B intracompany moves; PERM-based EB-2 and EB-3 sponsorship; and — for professionals whose records outgrow employer sponsorship — self-petitioned EB-1A and EB-2 NIW green cards built to the evidentiary standard USCIS applies after Matter of Dhanasar. We coordinate with employer counsel and HR so personal filings reinforce, rather than conflict with, company-sponsored cases.

Ontario Immigration FAQs
Common questions from Ontario clients about how immigration cases work locally.
Logistics companies transfer managers to Ontario from Mexico and Asia — which visa fits?
L-1A for executives and managers with a year's service at the foreign affiliate; L-1B for specialized-knowledge operations staff; TN for eligible Canadian and Mexican professionals in qualifying roles. Supply-chain titles need careful mapping to the categories — that mapping is the petition.
I work nights at a warehouse — can my case move without daytime meetings?
Completely. Evening video consultations, a secure portal for documents, and appearances only when USCIS requires them. Your case should fit your life, not the other way around.
Do you offer consultations in languages other than English for Ontario clients?
We regularly work with Ontario clients through certified interpreters and offer trauma-informed, confidential intake for asylum, VAWA, U-visa, and T-visa matters where sensitivity and privacy are essential.
Where do I go for my biometrics appointment near Ontario?
Fingerprints, photo, and signature for Ontario applicants are usually collected at the USCIS Application Support Center serving the Inland Empire. USCIS mails the appointment notice after we file; we confirm the location and reschedule for you if it conflicts with work or travel.
