~Practicing Complex Immigration Across the Nation since 2001~
For over a decade we have been uniting families, securing visas and protecting employers. We will continue to do so for decades to come.
Attorney Ricci specifically concentrates on complex naturalization, statelessness, delayed birth certificates, National Interest Waivers, I-9 compliance, E-Verify, and LGBT immigration in addition to traditional immigration matters such as investments, marriages, residency and TPS.
Ms. Ricci is very active in the community having won several awards. She is a political talk show personality and blogger.
