Andrés Benavides
I’m very happy with the service provided for my wife by this team
I’m very happy with the service provided for my wife by this team. They are not cheap (you get what you pay for-for me PEACE OF MIND)but the service is excellent. Note that if you are on a payment plan they will work based off amount paid in but once paid in full the ball starts really moving and they give their full attention (as much as they can-your not their only client)

About Houston Texas Immigration Lawyers
I entered law school driven by a passion for social justice, eager to make a difference for those in need. I chose to join the Immigration Clinic because my fluency in Spanish allowed me to connect with clients on a deeper level. During my early days at the Clinic, I was assigned to visit a local immigrant detention center, where I met a family of asylum seekers with a five‐month‐old baby girl.
The little one wore a prison-issued onesie, a stark reminder of her confined circumstances. In that moment, her mother gently asked if I could hold her daughter, remarking that I carried the scent of the outside world. As our meeting drew to a close, she even pleaded with me to take her baby along until the family could be reunited outside those walls. Although I couldn’t take the child into my care, I committed myself to representing the family, and together we secured a favorable asylum decision.
The immense relief of helping secure their freedom, combined with the sorrow of witnessing children in detention, solidified my resolve. I dedicated my career to fighting for justice and dignity for immigrants in Houston and throughout the United States.

Frequently Asked Questions About Immigration
How do I apply for asylum in Houston, TX?
If you fear persecution in your home country, you may be eligible for asylum. The process typically involves filing Form I-589 within one year of your U.S. arrival and gathering robust evidence of your claim. Our Houston-based legal team at Lincoln-Goldfinch Law is here to guide you every step of the way, ensuring your application meets USCIS requirements.
What is the process for adjusting my status to obtain a Green Card in Houston?
Adjustment of status lets eligible individuals already in the United States transition to lawful permanent residency without leaving the country. In Houston, this involves submitting Form I-485 along with supporting documents, attending a biometrics appointment, and sometimes an interview. Our experienced attorneys can evaluate your situation and help streamline the application process for a smoother path to a Green Card.
How does family-based immigration work in Houston, TX?
Family-based immigration allows U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents to sponsor eligible relatives. The process begins with filing Form I-130 to prove a bona fide relationship and providing evidence such as birth certificates and marriage records. In Houston, our legal experts can help you compile the necessary documentation and navigate the complexities of the petition process.
What options do Houston employers have for hiring international talent?
Houston employers can take advantage of various employment-based visas, such as the H-1B for specialized occupations or the L-1 for intracompany transfers. These visas enable businesses to bring in skilled workers while complying with U.S. labor laws. Our firm provides strategic guidance on eligibility requirements and filing procedures, ensuring your company meets regulatory standards efficiently.
How can I become a U.S. citizen while living in Houston, TX?
U.S. citizenship through naturalization generally requires meeting residency criteria, demonstrating good moral character, and passing an English and civics test. Houston residents typically start by filing Form N-400 and preparing for an interview with USCIS. Our dedicated team can help you prepare your application and provide support throughout your naturalization journey.
