Smal Immigration Law Office

SERVICES: PRACTICE AREAS

Smal Immigration Law office operates remotely as an online-based immigration law office. 
Since 2004, for more than 20 years, attorney Luba Smal has been exclusively practicing U.S. immigration law. Because the U.S. immigration law is federal law, we can represent clients from all states and worldwide. Luba is empathetic, ethical, courteous and highly efficient. Luba speaks fluently Russian and English. When we accept a new client, the goal is to help you to succeed, and your cooperation and transparency are required. We appreciate when our clients can effectively and timely communicate with us via email, phone and have access to a scanner or a scanner app. Before we accept a new client, we complete intake and all necessary checks over email and phone, and review the documents that you email us. Because we never outsource legal services, only an attorney will advise you, answer your questions, complete your applications, petitions and immigration forms, advise you about evidence, inform you about the status of your pending case, and follow up until your case is complete. Please email us or use our scheduling app, if you want to get in touch, looking to hire an immigration attorney, want to ask questions or schedule a consultation. We will email you a few questions or our confidential immigration questionnaire and schedule the best time to talk over the phone or video conference call.
