“ Citizenship ” refers to the status of being a United States Citizen. “ Naturalization ” refers to the legal process of applying for and being granted the status of a United States Citizen by the government.
Family Immigration
“Family-Based Immigration” refers to the process of having a family member sponsor a relative for Immigration benefits. While in some cases, it is possible for a family member to serve as a sponsor in connection with a temporary non-immigrant visa (like a tourist visa), Family Based Immigration more directly refers those cases where a family member sponsors a relative for a Green Card ( Immigrant Visa). Provided that the sponsor and immigrant can meet all of the qualifications, it remains as one of the most popular and straight forward ways to obtain a Green Card.

Removal Defense
In 1995, he moved to Washington, DC, and was admitted to the Virginia State Bar (1996) and the District of Columbia Bar (1998). It was during this time in Washington, D.C. that he started to practice Immigration Law. His cases involved the representation of clients in the U.S. Immigration Court (removal defense and asylum) in the Arlington and Baltimore Immigration Courts, Family-based immigration cases, Naturalization cases, Non-immigrant Visa cases (Extension of Status, Change of Status, and Student Visas) and representing businesses that were sponsoring workers for immigrant and non-immigrant (H-1B, L-1, and E-1/E-2) Visas. The diverse nature of the population and immigrant community in the Metro-Washington, DC area proved to be an ideal area to gain exposure to immigration issues and to grow in the dynamic field of Immigration Law. During this time, he continued to develop his skills as a civil litigator in the State Courts of Virginia, Maryland (pro hac vice), and also the District of Columbia.
In 2005, Sean relocated to Fort Lauderdale, FL. His practice areas include Immigration Law, Probate, Estate Planning and Administration, Civil Litigation, and Real Estate.
