What Does Family Law Have To Do With Immigration Law
Though these two bodies of law are very distinct and separate, family law issues and immigration law issues intersect more than most people realize. Though immigration law is federal and not state-specific, what a client can get done as per their state’s laws is still essential.
Practice Areas
IMMIGRATION & NATIONALITY LAW
Being a first-generation Arab-American, Mary Khano Foteh knows the struggles her family experienced when immigrating to the United States over forty years ago. The U.S. immigration laws have changed quite a bit since that time. With the passage of the Homeland Security Act of 2002, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has most of the decision-making power, and has many different agencies under its umbrella.
TEXAS FAMILY LAW
Family law encompasses many different types of actions, including, but not limited to, divorces, child custody issues, child support issues, name changes, adoptions, paternity actions, and even protective orders. Family law in Texas is governed by the Texas Family Code, as well as procedurally by the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure. Often times, immigration issues intersect with family law issues; for example, a Lawful Permanent Resident wanting to divorce his/her U.S. Citizen spouse, or an immigrant spouse is suffering from physical, mental and/or verbal abuse by his/her US Citizen spouse.
