Jennifer S.F. Lim, Principal Attorney
The Law Office of Jennifer S.F. Lim provides legal representation in immigration and naturalization law, family law, probate and civil litigation. Our legal services include family-sponsored immigration, business-related visas, professional work visas, investor visas, labor certification (PERM), deportation and removal proceedings, and citizenship.
The firm has successfully represented clients in national interest waiver petitions, outstanding performing artist petitions, and multinational executive immigrant petitions — matters that demand precision, documentation and persistence.
Toward that objective, we keep abreast of new laws and developments, the latest technology tools, and a wide range of database and research resources — so that advice given today reflects the law as it stands today.
Practice Areas
Four core disciplines, each handled personally by the principal attorney from first consultation through resolution.
Family-sponsored immigration, business and professional work visas, investor visas, labor certification (PERM), deportation and removal proceedings, and citizenship — including national interest waiver and multinational executive petitions.
Guidance for founders and international entrepreneurs establishing a business presence in the United States — entity selection and formation, governance documents, and the immigration questions that travel alongside them.
Representation in civil disputes, drawing on real courtroom and trial experience. Matters are handled through to settlement or judgment with strategies chosen for effectiveness and cost-efficiency.
Divorce, paternity proceedings, child custody and visitation, adoptions and guardianships — sensitive matters handled in family law and probate court with clarity about objectives and cost.
