ABOUT OUR OFFICES
Since 1979, the Law Offices of David M. Kramer has developed a specialized
practice dedicated to the area of immigration, nationality and consular
law. Our firm has over two decades of experience with employment-based
immigration and temporary work visas, as well as family-based immigration.

the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization as a Certified

American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) and the Immigration
Section of the Los Angeles County Bar Association.
Since 1995, Martindale-Hubbell, one of the foremost sources of information
about members of the legal community, has awarded Mr. Kramer an
AV rating. The AV rating is Martindale-Hubbell's highest possible
rating, reflecting the highest standards in legal expertise and
professional ethics and conduct. Martindale-Hubbell has also included
Mr. Kramer in its prestigious Bar Register of Preeminent Lawyers,
America's most exclusive directory of lawyers for more than 90 years.
In 2006, Mr. Kramer was selected by his peers as a Southern California
Super Lawyer in the field of Immigration Law. Considered among the
best in their profession, Super Lawyers represent the top 5% of
the practicing attorneys in Southern California. The Southern California
Super Lawyers for 2006 were selected by their peers in an extensive
nomination and polling process.
For the past several years, Mr. Kramer's practice has focused increasingly

CAN AN OUT-OF-STATE ATTORNEY EFFECTIVELY REPRESENT ME?
In employment-based cases, the INS requires that petitions must
be filed by mail. Therefore, an out-of-state or out-of-country attorney
can present your case no matter where you reside. In addition, because
the INS usually does not require an interview in employment-based
cases, an attorney normally does not have to appear on your behalf
before the INS.
We have prepared a comprehensive process that uses both web-based
instructions and close personal guidance from Mr. Kramer and his
staff of immigration specialists to assist you in obtaining permanent
or temporary status.
WHY HIRE AN ATTORNEY?
INS regulations are a vast and complex body of law that changes
from year to year. Sometimes, even individual officers in the Immigration
and Naturalization Service itself are not fully aware of all the
complexities of applying the laws correctly.
Although petitioning for permanent status or applying for a temporary
visa may seemigly involve the submission of only a handful of forms,
the information and accompanying documentation must be submitted
according to strict guidelines. Failure to submit the right documentation
and forms can unneccesarily delay a petition for many months--even
years.
The advantage of retaining our law firm is that we provide you with
our extensive experience in preparing and processing your documentation
to avoid such delays. We also ensure that the INS applies the regulations
correctly in your case so that you are given every opportunity to
obtain the immigration benefits to which you are entitled by law.
In addition, our network of liaisons enables us to conduct periodic
follow-ups with the INS so that your case is processed as quickly
as possible.
