Washington, DC, Immigration Attorneys

The immigration and naturalization lawyers of Lepon Holzworth & Kato, PLLC, provide reliable and thoroughly knowledgeable service to business and individual clients on a wide range of immigration issues. Led by Leslie Dellon, who is a recent past Washington Chapter President of the American Immigration Lawyers Association, the firm's immigration practice focuses on obtaining immigrant and nonimmigrant work and residence visas for business clients. We also represent individuals and families, but we do not handle refugee or asylum cases.

She and our associates can assist clients with visa situations involving:

  • F-1 visas
  • business immigration petitions
  • permanent residence visas (green cards) through family or employment classifications
  • U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement problems
  • H1B visas
  • labor certification
  • change of status between nonimmigrant classifications (e.g., student to work)
  • foreign residency waiver
  • naturalization and citizenship
