RelisLaw: Your Dedicated Immigration Ally in New York
At RelisLaw, we understand that the decision to build a new life or seize new opportunities in New York, and across the United States, is far more than a legal process. It is a deeply personal journey, one filled with hopes, ambitions, and the determination to create a brighter future for yourself and your loved ones. New York, with its unmatched diversity, rich history, and thriving industries, attracts individuals from around the globe who wish to start anew, reunite with family, or advance their professional paths. Immigration is not simply about filling out forms or following procedures; it is about shaping your destiny, safeguarding your family’s security, and transforming your dreams into reality. That is why our mission goes beyond providing legal representation, we walk beside you at every stage, offering legal expertise coupled with genuine empathy, cultural understanding, and an unwavering dedication to your success.
Our practice focuses exclusively on U.S. visas and immigration law, a concentration that allows us to stay fully informed about the ever-changing legislation and procedures that could affect your case. As active members of the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA), we keep our finger on the pulse of policy developments and new opportunities.
Personalized Service with Proven Results for New Yorkers
Choosing RelisLaw means choosing more than a law firm, you gain a dedicated partner committed to helping you succeed. From Buffalo to Albany, from the Hudson Valley to Long Island, and across all five boroughs of New York City, our clients receive consistent, personalized attention from the very first consultation to the successful completion of their cases. Our high approval rates reflect our meticulous preparation, careful planning, and commitment to exploring every possible legal path to help you achieve your objectives.
We believe that no two immigration cases are alike. That’s why we take the time to learn about your personal story, challenges, and aspirations. Whether you’re applying for a work permit, travel permit, visa, or green card, we approach each step with precision and care. We keep you informed at every stage, explaining the process in clear, accessible terms so you can move forward with confidence. Unlike firms that simply hand you forms and send you on your way, we remain actively engaged, offering detailed updates, guidance, and follow-ups to ensure your case stays on track and your concerns are always addressed.
A Global Perspective, Rooted in Human Connection
One of our greatest strengths at RelisLaw is our global outlook on immigration law. Led by Dr. Tamara Relis, Esq., our team’s personal and professional experiences extend to nearly every continent. Dr. Relis has lived, worked, and presented her research on client needs, human rights, and conflict resolution in Asia, Europe, Africa, Latin America, and the Caribbean. These experiences have deepened our respect for cultural diversity and strengthened our belief that everyone deserves the opportunity to transform their life.
This international insight allows us to understand not only the technical aspects of immigration but also the cultural, emotional, and practical challenges involved in starting over in a new country, especially in a fast-paced and competitive environment like New York. We treat the human side of immigration as just as important as the legal side, ensuring every client is met with compassion, respect, and cultural sensitivity. With personal family ties in Latin America, the Caribbean, Asia, Africa, Australia, and Europe, we bring an authentic and relatable approach to serving clients from all walks of life.
