U.S. Immigration From Lithuania
Steel & Associates, A Professional Law Corporation represents accepted U.S. immigration matters involving people and organizations in Lithuania and U.S. petitioners. The firm is based in Gretna, Louisiana, practices U.S. law, and does not maintain a Lithuanian office or practice Lithuanian law.

Can someone in Lithuania hire the firm for a U.S. immigration matter?
Yes. Steel & Associates, A Professional Law Corporation may represent accepted clients, petitioners, employers, organizations, applicants, and beneficiaries in appropriate U.S. immigration matters while they are located in Lithuania. The work concerns U.S. immigration law and does not create or imply a Lithuanian office or Lithuanian-law practice.

For professionals, employers, founders, researchers, talent, families, and organizations
A Lithuania-based matter may involve a U.S. employer or petitioner, a professional or researcher pursuing a qualifying employment path, an entrepreneur evaluating a lawful classification, an artist or athlete with U.S. engagements, a religious organization or worker, a family member, or an applicant completing consular processing.
The legal path depends on the actual U.S. objective, petitioner structure, qualifications, evidence, immigration history, timing, visa availability, and final processing route. Geography alone does not create eligibility.
Employment, O and P classifications, EB-1A, and EB-2 NIW require category-specific records
Professionals, researchers, entrepreneurs, artists, athletes, agents, production teams, and U.S. employers may need analysis involving employer-sponsored classifications, O-1, P classifications, EB-1A, EB-2 national interest waiver, or another lawful pathway depending on the facts.
The record may need to address the U.S. petitioner or employer, proposed work, contracts, itinerary, qualifications, achievements, publications, awards, press, commercial or critical recognition, proposed endeavor, national importance, labor certification where applicable, and the final visa or adjustment process.
Family and consular matters require the U.S. petition and the foreign-document record to match
Family immigration may involve spouses, fiances, children, parents, or other qualifying relatives. Employment and self-petition matters may also end in consular processing abroad.
Civil documents, identity records, translations, police records where required, prior immigration history, prior marriages, criminal history, military history where relevant, and current Department of State instructions should be reviewed as part of the case rather than treated as an afterthought.
Serving clients in Vilnius, Kaunas, and elsewhere in Lithuania without pretending to be local counsel
The firm may work remotely with appropriate U.S. immigration clients in Vilnius, Kaunas, and elsewhere in Lithuania. Meetings, document review, case preparation, and coordination can be handled remotely when the matter and client needs permit.
The website does not claim a Lithuanian office, Lithuanian bar admission, Lithuanian legal services, or a special relationship with any government, consulate, employer, university, religious organization, or other institution in Lithuania.
Some U.S. immigration problems move beyond ordinary petition processing
Accepted matters may involve removal defense, detention, motions to reopen, appeals, agency delay, federal immigration litigation, or other procedural issues in addition to petition or visa work.
Federal court and removal matters require forum-specific analysis. A country page does not imply that every dispute belongs in federal court or that every overseas client has a litigation remedy.
Questions people actually ask
Frequently asked questions
