“I would like to send my great appreciation to the best lawyer around. Not only did she provide superior advice and expertise in my case, but she was also willing to treat me as a person not just a client. It would have been a much more difficult experience for me without her guidance, understanding, and willingness to achieve the best results. Thank you so much Marika, you made a difficult experience go as smoothly as possible. It’s good to know that there are professionals out there that still care about the people they deal with. Thanks again!”

“On my First Court date May 1, 2013 In Lamar, CO we went in and left with a lower charge which was a DWAI instead of a DUI and a deferred sentence . On top of that she also took care of my DMV case and I got to keep my license, No interlock device or restricted driving!! I am happy to say that if I ever in the future need an Attorney, I will definitely use Attorney Marika Frady again!! Highly recommend!!”

“Marika Frady is awesome. I’m so glad I hired her to handle my divorce and protection order hearing. I could finally sleep at night without stress because I knew she was taking care of all of the details for me. I would recommend her to anyone looking for an attorney.”

“I’m not a bad person but I did need help with a criminal charge and my boss told me to talk to Marika Frady. When I first met Marika she told me not to accept any offers on my case without at least consulting an attorney. She also told me up front that I could handle the case on my own if I wanted to. I was so impressed at the consult that I ended up hiring her for my case. She was always early to court dates and I never felt rushed when I asked her questions even though I know with some lawyers you feel like you’re wasting their time. I think the result of my case was good and I’m glad I trusted her to represent me. I do not plan to get into trouble again but if I ever need another lawyer, I know who to call.”

“Thank you for helping me with my problem with my neighbor. You wrote a letter that got my neighbor to act. I couldn’t have done this on my own. You followed up with me and made sure I knew what was happening all along. It was easy to contact you and it seemed like you cared about me and my case. I have told my friends about your office.”

Till Immigration Laws Do We Part: Immigration and Marriage in the US

A poor judgment choice from when she was a teenager as a citizen of Mexico now prevents a young woman from living with her new groom and family in his hometown of El Paso, Texas. The couple in this story from the Texas Tribune got married in the middle of the Paso del Norte bridge, an international man-made structure that literally bridges the gap between the United States and Mexico. The bride may never be able to step off that bridge and onto US soil to be with her new husband. The scene of the wedding was by all accounts meant to draw attention to their situation, which was brought on by the 1996 immigration bill signed by former president Bill Clinton which said that a person who lies about being a US citizen shall be barred from re-entry into the United States. Now an adult, the couple feel the effects of that bride’s prior misrepresentation of citizenship.

The issue of marriage and immigration can be extremely complicated. From the logistics of bringing a foreign spouse into the United States to family sponsorship, green card expiration dates and which forms to complete and file with the federal government, few areas of law are more complex than immigration. The law on immigration related issues is constantly changing and evolving. Organizations like American Families United have backed an act that would allow judges some discretion when it comes to deportation or re-admission reviews in cases where a subject has an immediate family member who his a United States citizen. Another interesting issue comes with the recent striking of DOMA, the Defense of Marriage Act, via landmark case United States v. Windsor which ruled that same-sex marriages would be recognized by the federal government. The result of that case, in small part, is that immigration laws have new effects on same-sex bi-national couples who marry and seek visas or green cards.

If you or a loved one has ever had to fill out an application for citizenship or green cards, you know that the paperwork and forms can be complex and voluminous. Filing fees for various types of status tend to be expensive. For assistance and to be sure your paperwork is filled out correctly so that you are not faced with mistakes that mean paying a filing fee twice, you should always consider talking to a local immigration attorney.
