OUR IMMIGRATION LAW FIRM AND HOW WE PRACTICE LAW
In an immigration system filled with information — and misinformation — clarity matters.Â
Since 2008, our practice has focused on family-based immigration and naturalization, handling each case with care, precision, and professional judgment. We do not promise outcomes. We provide honest assessments, clear guidance, and steady representation — one client, one case, at a time.
Immigration law is the exclusive focus of our practice. By dedicating our work solely to immigration matters, we are able to approach each case with informed judgment, careful analysis, and realistic expectations.
Our practice area includes marriage immigration, family immigration, waivers, naturalization, and a select group of other immigration matters. We intentionally limit the types of cases we accept so we can thoughtfully evaluate eligibility and devote the necessary attention to every matter we take on.
Located in the historic “lawyer’s row” in downtown Las Vegas, our law firm serves individuals and families throughout Las Vegas, Henderson, Summerlin, North Las Vegas, Boulder City, Reno, and other areas of Nevada. We also regularly serve clients in California. Because immigration law is federal in nature, we are able to assist clients who reside anywhere in the United States.
Our team members speak Spanish, Russian, and Armenian. More importantly, each member of our team is an immigrant and understands firsthand the responsibility that comes with guiding clients through the immigration process.

Q&A: YOUR TOP QUESTIONS ANSWERED
An appointment is not always necessary. Feel free to call our office at 702-243-9444 to check our availability and ability to assist with your matter, or you can request information from our CONSULTATION page. Please note that we do not accept walk-ins without an appointment, except for current clients with extremely urgent matters.
Realistic Expectations
It’s important to clarify that while we cannot guarantee success, we pledge our best effort on behalf of our clients. Lawyers are bound by rules of ethics that prohibit guaranteeing specific results, and it’s unethical to promise success. For instance, in Nevada, the Rules of Professional Conduct, adopted by the Supreme Court, strictly forbid such guarantees.
Moreover, within the realm of immigration law, numerous factors influence case outcomes, many of which are beyond our control. Government agencies processing immigration benefits often grapple with overwhelming workloads, leading to delays and decisions that may not fully grasp the nuances of a case. Despite our best efforts to present facts favorably, the anonymity of adjudicators and their inherent biases can impact decisions.
Complexity of Immigration Cases
The reality of immigration cases is often complex and unpredictable. Meritorious cases can face denials, and the adjudication process, often carried out anonymously by officials who may be thousands of miles away, adds another layer of uncertainty.
Setting Realistic Expectations
Our duty to clients includes providing ongoing support and counsel. However, it’s crucial for clients to have realistic expectations. Immigrating to the United States can be a lengthy and challenging journey, with an outcome that’s difficult to predict. Any portrayal of this reality as straightforward or guaranteed is either misleading or indicative of a lack of experience in immigration law.
We’re committed to guiding our clients through this process with transparency and integrity, offering the best possible representation while navigating the complexities inherent in immigration law.
Accelerating the Process
While we cannot guarantee a faster outcome, working with an immigration attorney greatly minimizes the risk of errors, which can potentially streamline the process. Without professional guidance, mistakes are more likely to occur, leading to significant delays or even requiring the process to start over.
Unprecedented Delays
Currently, USCIS processing times are at record highs, far exceeding those seen in recent years. Many cases face prolonged timelines, with each stage potentially taking months or even years to complete.
Yes. Any immigration matter he handles in Nevada immigration attorney Arsen V. Baziyants can also handle in any other U.S. state. Read our Practice Areas.
To apply for a marriage-based green card, you’ll need proof of your bona fide marriage, such as a marriage certificate, joint financial records, photos together, and more. You’ll also need identity documents, prior immigration records, and affidavits if available.
The timeline varies, but it typically takes 10–16 months if the spouse is in the U.S. and 18–24 months if processing through a U.S. consulate abroad.
If your I-601A waiver is denied, you won’t be able to proceed to your immigrant visa interview abroad unless the denial is overcome. You may have legal options depending on the reason for the denial.
Possibly, if you’re married to a U.S. citizen and qualify for a provisional waiver. This involves consular processing and a hardship-based waiver of unlawful presence. Certain cases do not require a lawful entry for adjustment of status, such as where the applicant is eligible under 245(i) or VAWA or U visa based petitions.
Depending on a case, yes to a greater or a lesser degree. Certainly there are cases where a simple consultation with a seasoned immigration attorney averts a legal disaster. Generally speaking, having an experienced immigration lawyer greatly reduces the risk of delays, denials, and mistakes. A lawyer can guide you, build strong evidence, and prepare you for the interview.
It all depends. If your overstay is more than 180 days and you’re applying through consular processing, you likely need a waiver. Overstays under 180 days usually don’t trigger inadmissibility.
Provide photos, joint bank statements, lease or mortgage documents, insurance policies, affidavits from friends and family, travel records, and more. A well-documented case can make a major difference.
Adjustment of status allows green card processing inside the U.S., while consular processing requires an interview at a U.S. embassy or consulate abroad. The choice depends on your situation and legal eligibility.
Yes, if you file Form I-765 (Work Authorization) along with your adjustment of status, you can work once your EAD card is approved, usually within 3–5 months.
My firm provides start-to-finish service, including evidence development, form preparation, legal strategy, interview prep, responses to RFEs, and personalized guidance. We offer a flat fee and a clear written checklist.
While our physical office is in downtown Las Vegas, we serve clients nationwide. Since immigration law falls under federal jurisdiction, we often consult and represent clients who reach out to us from coast to coast, especially from our neighboring states of California (cities of Los Angeles, Glendale, Burbank, Hollywood, San Diego, etc.), Arizona (Bullhead City, Phoenix, etc.) and Utah (St. George). No matter where you live – we can help if your case falls under our practice areas.
