Bailey & Galyen offers a wide range of immigration services designed to support individuals and families throughout Fort Worth and the surrounding areas.
Whether you’re seeking lawful status, trying to reunite with loved ones, or working to avoid deportation, our attorneys deliver clear guidance backed by legal knowledge and practical experience.
Family-Based Immigration
Family reunification continues to be a major part of U.S. immigration law. Bailey & Galyen helps U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents petition for qualifying relatives, including spouses, children, parents, and siblings. The firm manages the paperwork, meets deadlines, and keeps clients informed throughout the process.
Deportation Defense
Removal proceedings often move quickly, and the consequences can be permanent. Bailey & Galyen protects individuals in immigration court, fighting to stop deportation and preserve clients’ ability to stay in the U.S. The firm examines all available options, such as cancellation of removal, waivers, asylum, or adjustment of status.
Asylum and Refugee Status
People who are persecuted—or fear persecution—in their home countries may qualify for asylum in the U.S. Bailey & Galyen helps individuals file for affirmative or defensive asylum by building strong evidence of their claims and representing them throughout interviews and hearings. The firm also assists refugees seeking resettlement and family reunification.
Citizenship and Naturalization
For lawful permanent residents ready to take the next step, the path to citizenship includes several requirements: residency periods, physical presence, good moral character, and passing English and civics tests. Bailey & Galyen prepares clients for each part of the naturalization process and offers support every step of the way.
DACA and TPS
Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) offers temporary protection to certain undocumented individuals who came to the U.S. as children. Temporary Protected Status (TPS) provides limited immigration relief to individuals from designated countries due to conflict or disaster.
Bailey & Galyen helps eligible individuals apply for or renew protections under these programs.
Visa Applications and Renewals
A wide variety of nonimmigrant visas are available for visitors, students, and family members. The attorneys at Bailey & Galyen assist clients in selecting the correct visa, compiling necessary documentation, and submitting thorough applications to reduce processing delays and rejections.
Green Card Applications
Green cards grant lawful permanent residency and provide a stepping stone to citizenship. Whether applying through marriage or a family petition, Bailey & Galyen handles adjustment of status for those already in the U.S. and consular processing for applicants abroad.
