Legal Question in Immigration Law in California

Re: Becoming legal through marriage

Does he have an Immigration hold? If so this matter is complex and you should not try to do it yourself so you should get an attorney to discuss your options. If you are located in Southern California, you can email me your contact info, so we can discuss your particular situation. There is no charge for consultation.
