US IMMIGRATION ATTORNEY
At Aftalion Law Group, your case is handled by attorneys who have spent their careers inside the U.S. immigration system — not working around it. Jonathan Aftalion, Esq. founded this firm after representing clients at some of the country’s leading immigration practices, where he handled everything from complex removal defense to high-stakes employment visas.
Jonathan is licensed to practice in both California and New York, giving our clients direct access to an immigration lawyer who understands the specific courts, USCIS field offices, and immigration judges in both jurisdictions. He is a member of and has been recognized by Super Lawyers for his work in immigration law.
Supporting every case is a multilingual team that includes fluent in English and Spanish — because navigating the immigration system is hard enough without a language barrier. Our staff has worked alongside Jonathan on cases across family immigration, deportation defense, asylum, DACA, and criminal defense for immigrants.
When you hire Aftalion Law Group, you’re not handed off to a case manager and left waiting. You work with a team that knows your file, returns your calls, and understands what’s at stake for you and your family.
Most immigration law firms are built around a single city. Aftalion Law Group is different. With offices in West Los Angeles and New York City — two of the highest-volume immigration markets in the United States — we bring genuine local expertise to clients on both coasts, while representing individuals and families in all 50 states.
That matters more than it sounds. Immigration outcomes can vary significantly depending on which USCIS field office handles your case, which immigration court you appear in, and which judges and government attorneys are involved. Our attorneys know the Los Angeles Immigration Court and the New York Immigration Court — their tendencies, their timelines, and what it takes to build a winning case in each.
Whether you’re a family in California waiting on a green card, a business in New York sponsoring a foreign worker, or an individual in another state who needs an immigration lawyer licensed in the jurisdictions that matter most — Aftalion Law Group has the reach, the knowledge, and the team to represent you effectively wherever your case takes us.
Dealing with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) or the courts is not easy. You want a lawyer who has the experience and latest updates, a lawyer you can entrust your future with, and a lawyer who is persistent and never gives up on their clients.
Our clients range from individuals and families to business and corporations throughout the nation. This requires a unique strategy for each case, as no two cases are the same and our team will prioritize creating the right immigration strategies for your case.
Each file is a life. Every life has a story to tell. Legal matters are often complex, but your story matters the most. Our team will listen to your case to understand your challenges, and your strengths. We are compassionate about focusing on your challenges together
