Your U.S. Immigration Journey Starts With One Conversation.
Immigration counsel built on the inside of the system.
Moving capital, executives, and families across borders is rarely simple. Corporate petitions get scrutinized, timelines slip, and a single misstep in a filing can cost a company a key hire or delay an investment by a year. In the current political environment, the margin for error is smaller than ever.
That is where experience on the government side of the desk matters.
The Arias Law Firm is led by Diego A. Arias, who served as a United States diplomat for more than eight years. During his career in government, he worked with the White House and the United States Department of State, and served at several of the most consequential business immigration posts in the world. For two years he led all corporate visa adjudications in Beijing, China, where he processed, approved, and denied major corporate immigration petitions for some of the largest technology companies on earth.
He knows how these cases are evaluated because he evaluated them. He knows what triggers a request for evidence, what makes an officer confident, and what quietly sinks an otherwise strong petition. Our clients get the benefit of that judgment before a filing is ever submitted.
Who we serve
Corporate investment and expansion. Companies establishing or growing a U.S. presence, investors deploying capital into American enterprises, and the treaty investor, intracompany transfer, and employment-based structures that make it possible.
Exceptional talent. Executives, researchers, founders, physicians, and specialists with extraordinary ability who are choosing the United States over other destinations. We build petitions that reflect the caliber of the person behind them.
Company petitions at scale. Employer-sponsored filings, compliance strategy, and the internal processes that keep a growing workforce authorized and audit-ready.
Family petitions. For the principals we represent, immigration is never only professional. We handle spouse, child, and parent petitions with the same rigor we bring to a nine-figure corporate matter, because a relocation that leaves the family behind is not a relocation at all.
Risk and enforcement. Where immigration intersects with criminal exposure, arrests, or removal proceedings, we advise on the consequences before they become permanent. Discretion is assumed.
The United States remains one of the most attractive destinations in the world for capital and talent. Getting here should be handled by someone who has stood on both sides of the counter.
