Nonimmigrant Based Visas

Nonimmigrant based visas are those that allow an individual to enter the United States legally and work in the US for a specific amount of time. At David F. Vedder, P.A. we have extensive experience helping individuals and employers obtain work visas, and assisting individuals lawfully present in the US change their status or extend their visa to allow them to remain in the U.S. legally.

We help clients with all types of visas, including visas for executives and managers, employees with specialized knowledge or extraordinary or exceptional abilities, traders and investors, athletes, entertainers and performing artists.

Immigrant Based Visas
