Services Available
We provide individualized service and advice on employment and investor-based U.S. immigration. Whether our client is a large multinational or a start-up company, we tailor an immigration program to its specialized needs. Unlike immigration boutique firms, we are also able to advise on all aspects of transferring a foreign national to the U.S., including customs, employment, Social Security, income tax and estate tax law.
For the global needs of large multinationals we provide, in conjunction with Magrath & Co., our associated offices in London, access to a worldwide network of immigration law firms in each of the world's primary commercial centers. Through this network, we facilitate the transfer of foreign personnel to these jurisdictions on a coordinated basis, achieving the most efficient and cost effective results.
The immigration department's commitment to serving the needs of its clients is exemplified by its creation of the GIBNEY OWL¿ (Outside Web Link). This groundbreaking extranet system has transformed the management of our clients' immigration programs by serving as a "virtual paralegal," providing on-line information to authorized users 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The GIBNEY OWL¿ can be directly linked into our clients' web sites and customized to enhance any of their international assignment services programs.
