Naturalization and Citizenship

Marriage Immigration Lawyers in Norfolk, VA

U.S. citizenship is obtained by birth or through the process of naturalization. The process is complex, must be done in compliance with the requirements of the law, and includes physical presence in the U.S., residency in the U.S. for a number of years, good moral character, knowledge of U.S. history and government, and the ability to speak, read, and write English. Other aspects to take into consideration include if you are a Lawful Permanent Resident serving in the U.S. Military, if you were a foreign-born child of U.S. citizen parents, or if you have a criminal record.

The attorneys of Protogyrou Law, P.L.C. will guide you through the application process, prepare you for your interview with an immigration officer, and even provide you with resources to help you pass the citizenship exam.

    I Would Have to Say, You've Outdone Yourself
    "

    Mr. Protogyrou,

    I would have to say that you have outdone yourself, and I’m grateful to you. By you writing my prosecutor, Mrs. Laura Tayman, about me and telling her of my assistance in the Michael Jordan trial, and assisting the prosecutor Mr. Jim Metcalfe, made me feel for me receiving my motion for my rule 350.

    Mr. Protogyrou, by you being close to this institution, or prison, everyone has kept their eyes and ears on every lawyer from Norfolk to Richmond. Whenever your name is mentioned, the inmates here already know that you will fight for your clients, and in most of your cases that went to trial, you were victorious. I do believe that you will do the same for me."
