Immigration Lawyers in Lehigh County, PA

Philadelphia-Based Immigration Firm Serving Lehigh County

Henry & Grogan is an immigration law firm founded by partners Michael S. Henry and Devin E. Grogan. We serve clients throughout Lehigh County in the full range of immigration matters, from family petitions and employment visas to deportation defense, federal appeals, and emergency injunctions. What separates us from many other firms is our ability to fight at every level of the system, including the Third Circuit Court of Appeals and federal district courts, when a case demands it.

Michael S. Henry has been practicing law since 1987 and is admitted before the Third Circuit Court of Appeals, the U.S. District Courts for the Eastern and Middle Districts of Pennsylvania, and the District of New Jersey. His appellate advocacy has successfully overturned state regulations, and his cases continue to be cited in state and federal courts. Partner Devin E. Grogan, a Temple University Law School graduate and member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association, has obtained emergency injunctions in federal court to prevent deportation and has personally attended hundreds of USCIS interviews on behalf of clients.

We offer free initial consultations so you can understand your options before committing to anything. To speak with an immigration attorney in Lehigh County, call us today at (215) 568-1500.

Family-Based Immigration Solutions in Lehigh County, PA

Reuniting families is one of the most important aspects of immigration law. If you're a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident hoping to bring a loved one to the United States, working with a knowledgeable family immigration lawyer can make the process smoother and more efficient.

Our firm assists with a variety of family-based immigration matters, including:

• Marriage-based visas and spousal petitions

Employment-Based Immigration for Lehigh County Employers & Workers

For many individuals, immigration opportunities are tied directly to employment. Employers and foreign workers alike must navigate a detailed system of applications, certifications, and ongoing compliance requirements. 

We provide strategic support for employment-based immigration cases, including:

• H-1B visas for specialty occupations
• Labor certification (PERM) applications
• Employment-based green cards
• Work authorization and visa renewals

Michael S. Henry has worked extensively with health care providers on H-1B visa matters, labor certifications, and alien worker visas for hospitalists and other hospital medical staff. We also advise employers on structuring remote and hybrid work arrangements for foreign national employees. This is a compliance area that many firms don't address directly and that has become increasingly relevant for Lehigh Valley employers. Whether you're sponsoring a skilled professional or pursuing a career opportunity in the U.S., we're prepared to help you navigate the process.

Deportation Defense & Immigration Court Representation in Lehigh County, PA

Facing removal proceedings is one of the most urgent situations an immigrant or family can encounter. If you or a loved one is at risk of deportation, the range of remedies available and the firm's ability to pursue them matters enormously.

Lehigh County removal cases are heard at the Philadelphia Immigration Court. 

We represent clients there and explore available forms of relief, including:

• Cancellation of removal
• Asylum or withholding of removal
• Adjustment of status
• Waivers of inadmissibility

When a case warrants it, we can also file for immigration bonds or habeas corpus petitions in federal court to seek a detained client's release. Appeals can be taken before the Board of Immigration Appeals and, when necessary, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals, where our partners are admitted. We've obtained dismissals, reversals, and emergency stays of deportation on behalf of clients. If your situation is urgent, don't wait to call.

When to Hire a Citizenship Lawyer in Lehigh County, PA

Becoming a U.S. citizen is a significant milestone, but the naturalization process can still present challenges. While some applicants may feel comfortable filing on their own, others benefit from working with a citizenship lawyer.

You may want to consult an immigration lawyer if:

• You have a complicated immigration history.
• You have had prior visa denials or immigration violations.
• You need help preparing for the citizenship test or interview.
• You want to help reduce the risk of errors or omissions in your application.

We assist clients with every stage of the naturalization process, from determining eligibility to submitting Form N-400 and preparing for the interview. Getting these steps right matters. Errors or omissions can delay approval or trigger additional scrutiny.
