Immigrants often arrive alone in the United States. This is mostly for economic reasons, as long-distance travel in a group can be quite expensive. For many of those immigrants who’ve managed to settle down in the United States, however, bringing their families over to share their life will be a dream come true. It’s also a very possible dream with the help of a dependable Philadelphia immigration lawyer to advise families on ways to immigrate.

In the middle of 2013, the Senate took a huge step toward implementing immigration reform by passing the Border Security, Economic Opportunity, and Immigration Modernization Act (S.744). The House, however, has preferred a ‘step-by-step’ approach. Five separate bills have come from the House committee, yet a comprehensive reform bill has still not been heard of from the House floor. >>Continue Reading

“I almost gave up fighting to remain in the U.S. when I heard about a new immigration law office started by Joseph Best. He had won a bunch of cases for guys from Ghana. Best & Associates took care of everything. He dealt with my first lawyer who had made a lot of mistakes and charged a lot of money. He took over the case and fought for me both before the Immigration Service and in Immigration Court at the same time- for over two years. Eventually we won but only after proving a lot about what would happen to me and my family if I were deported and why I legally had the right to remain. No lawyer I worked with ever explained to me what was happening or took the time to carefully compile all evidence I needed to win. So instead of being deported to African-- I’m a citizen now. To think that I almost gave up and just left.… it’s amazing what a good lawyer can do!"

Immigration Attorney in Philadelphia, the Berkshires & the Hudson Valley

Best & Associates is a small immigration law firm dedicated to serving both immigrant communities and the businesses that hire them from around our nation and the world. We are dedicated to individualized attention and services in order to accomplish our clients’ goals.

For centuries, American dynamism has been a function of our being a destination for immigrants combined with our society’s ability to integrate generation after generation of innovators and seekers into our country and political systems. Over the centuries we have certainly gotten better at creating a just system- despite the very significant challenges endemic in our current legal system.

Since the first arrivals of non-indigenous peoples to today, from the iconic Latina author Isabel Allende to the genius of Einstein, from Google Founder Sergei Brin to clothing pioneer Levi Strauss—immigrants have and still today find a home and thrive in what America alone still offers. In providing safe harbor to both the world’s oppressed and its seekers, we are the best versions of ourselves as we accommodate our newest arrivals and foster their varied energies and innovations. Our legacy of attracting the best and the brightest and them finding a settled place for them among us is the essence of American Exceptionalism, if the term is to be properly understood as an idea.
