Federal litigation in the U.S. courts

Immigration Litigation in United States Federal Courts of Virginia & Maryland

The SRIS, P.C. U.S. immigration attorneys in Virginia & Maryland have been representing clients before the federal courts since the late 1990s. Our US immigration attorneys pursue our client's cases with exception skills and with a commitment towards distinction in immigration law.

If you require immediate assistance with an appeal and a stay of deportation due to the denial of your application for a particular visa status by the State Department or the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) was unjust or that processing of the visa is being needlessly delayed, please call us toll free at 888-437-7747 for a consultation with a Maryland or Virginia immigration attorney from our US immigration litigation legal team.

Writs of Mandamus - Habeas Corpus - Petitions for Declaratory Relief

The Maryland & Virginia immigration attorneys at SRIS, P.C, regularly file writs and appeals in order to win release for immigration clients who have been detained or seek approval of desired immigration status for applicants in the U.S. District Courts in Virginia & Maryland. If your case has been delayed for one year or more, you should seriously consult with us regarding filing a Writ of Mandamus complaint with the Federal Court. Federal Courts require the USCIS to explain why it has delayed approval of a case within sixty days of the complaint being filed, and often these cases are resolved within a thirty to sixty-day period. Due to the high volume of applicants in the Washington D.C. Metro area, Virginia & Maryland, USCIS has been at a minimum, slow if not downright unreasonable in its delays in approving cases pending before it for approval.

Whether it is a Writ of Mandamus, a Writ of Coram Nobis or some other form of federal relief, when you meet with an US immigration lawyer from our immigration legal team in Virginia or Maryland, we will discuss your case and the appropriate legal measures to gain relief on your behalf. Our experience has been that federal agencies are more likely to comply with the law in your case if they know that attorneys with a history of successful federal litigation represent you.

A Defense tailored for Each Client
