★★★★★
"I had a great experience working with Sam on my E-2 visa from Canada. After dealing with two unresponsive attorneys, Sam was a huge relief—always responsive, professional, and reliable. He consistently answered my calls or followed up within a few hours. His fees were reasonable, and the level of service was truly five-star. Thank you, Sam, for your outstanding support and guidance throughout the process. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of an immigration attorney."
★★★★★
"We had a good experience working with Sam and Jahy. Sam laid out the groundwork in the beginning and Jahy kept us informed as to how to respond to our immigration forms. Jahy answered all of our questions in a timely manner. Faragalla Law firm was a good choice for us."
★★★★★
"My relative got detained and we called a few law firms. Out of all of them, Sam was the most knowledgeable. He was able to get my uncle released and we are forever grateful."
★★★★★
"I initially hesitated to work with Sam because he was blunt and honest, while other attorneys made big promises. In hindsight, I realized that his straightforwardness was a strength. The other lawyers ended up charging me extra for services I didn't need, while he provided clear and realistic advice. I wish I had gone with him from the start. If you want someone who tells it like it is, he's a great choice!"

Common Questions About Immigration Law in Austin
The cost of an immigration lawyer in Austin depends on the type of immigration matter, the complexity of your history, the amount of documentation involved, and whether your case requires USCIS filings, consular processing, immigration court representation, or urgent legal action. A family petition, work visa, naturalization application, or removal defense matter may each require different levels of preparation and attorney involvement. Faragalla Law uses the consultation process to review your goals, identify potential issues, and explain the legal support your case may require.
Immigration attorneys handle many types of visa matters, including family-based visas, fiancé visas, work visas, investor visas, student visas, visitor visas, and employment-based immigration options. The right visa depends on why you want to enter or remain in the United States, your family relationships, your career or business plans, and your long-term immigration goals. Immigration lawyers in Austin can help you evaluate the available pathways and prepare the documentation needed to support your application.
Immigration court handles removal proceedings and certain deportation defense matters before an immigration judge. If you or your family member receives a Notice to Appear, the process may involve hearings, evidence, legal arguments, deadlines, and possible forms of relief from removal. Faragalla Law helps you understand what is happening, prepare for each stage, and respond with a legal strategy based on your circumstances.
Consular processing is the process of applying for an immigrant visa through a U.S. embassy or consulate outside the United States after the appropriate petition has been approved. It may be required if you or your family member is outside the United States or cannot complete adjustment of status from within the country. We help you understand whether consular processing applies to your case, prepare the required documents, and avoid issues that could create unnecessary delays.
