Core Immigration Services Focused on Results
Gilliam Law specializes in several key areas of immigration law to ensure our clients receive the most effective representation possible. We intentionally move away from a high-volume approach to focus on high-value cases that require a deeper level of legal expertise. Our top five practice areas represent the cornerstone of our mission to fight for families.
Aggressive Removal and Deportation Defense
Facing the threat of deportation is an incredibly stressful experience that can uproot your entire life. We provide aggressive removal defense for clients in immigration court proceedings. Our team understands the critical nature of these cases and works to secure bonds or other relief that allows families to remain together during the legal process.
Family Based Immigration and Green Card Petitions
Helping families unite in the United States is one of the most rewarding aspects of our practice. We assist with green card applications, marriage-based petitions, and other family visas. Our team manages the extensive paperwork and procedural requirements so you can focus on building a future with your loved ones.
Waivers and Pardons for Complex Cases
Many immigration cases involve complications from past criminal history or previous immigration violations. Solomon Gilliam utilizes his unique background in criminal defense to handle crimmigration issues effectively. We help clients pursue waivers and pardons that can clear the path to lawful status even after a denial or a criminal conviction.
Why Families Choose Gilliam Law
Clients across Illinois and Tennessee choose our firm because we pair local insight with a bilingual, culturally fluent approach.
