Immigration Law

Immigration Lawyer Danbury CT

Danbury has one of the most diverse immigrant communities in Connecticut. Lito Law and Associates has deep ties to the Danbury immigrant community and provides compassionate, strategic immigration legal services in English and Spanish. Whether you are pursuing a green card, defending against deportation, or applying for citizenship, we are here.

Green Cards and Permanent Residency

A green card grants permanent residency in the United States. The most common paths to a green card in the Danbury area include family-based petitions, employment-based petitions, and for some individuals, asylum. The process timelines vary significantly depending on the category and country of birth.

We guide clients through every step of the green card process including petition preparation, supporting documentation, interviews at USCIS, and adjustment of status or consular processing.

Visas for Danbury Area Residents

We handle a range of visa matters for Danbury area residents and employers including family-based immigrant visas, tourist and visitor visas, student visas, and work visas including H-1B, H-2A, H-2B, and TN visas for Canadian and Mexican nationals under the USMCA.

We also assist employers in the Danbury area with sponsoring foreign workers and navigating the labor certification process.

Citizenship and Naturalization

U.S. citizenship through naturalization requires meeting residence and physical presence requirements, demonstrating good moral character, passing the English language and civics tests, and taking the oath of allegiance. We help eligible permanent residents prepare their naturalization applications and prepare for the interview.

Deportation Defense in Connecticut

Receiving a Notice to Appear is not the end of the road. Immigration courts have discretion to grant relief from removal including cancellation of removal, asylum, withholding of removal, and adjustment of status. We represent clients in immigration court proceedings and before the Board of Immigration Appeals.

If you or a family member has received a Notice to Appear, call us immediately. Deadlines in immigration court can be strict and unforgiving.

DACA and Special Programs

We assist clients with DACA renewals and advise on the current status of the DACA program. We also handle Special Immigrant Juvenile Status petitions, U visas for crime victims, and T visas for trafficking victims.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to get a green card in Connecticut?
It depends on the category and country of birth. Family-based green cards for immediate relatives of U.S. citizens can take one to two years. Employment-based green cards and family preference categories can take many years depending on visa availability.
What should I do if ICE contacts me?
Do not answer questions without an attorney present. You have the right to remain silent. Call us immediately. We handle emergency immigration matters and can advise you on your rights.
Can I apply for citizenship if I have a criminal record?
It depends on the nature and timing of the criminal matter. Some convictions bar naturalization permanently. Others may create a bar for a period of years. We evaluate your specific situation before advising you to file.
