You have found love, comfort, and joy with your Russian or Ukrainian fiancée. Let me help you achieve your goal of securing a Fiancée Visa for your beloved, in an experienced, professional, and cost effective way.

--Michael F. Roe, Esq. Member, American Immigration Lawyers Association.

If you are an American man fortunate enough to have found love with a woman from Russia or Ukraine, our K1 fiancée visa immigration practice is for you. Michael Roe is an American immigration lawyer with his practice dedicated to Russian and Ukrainian fiancée visas. Having lived and traveled in Russia and Ukraine, with onsite foreign Embassy experience, Michael Roe knows Russia and Ukraine. Our practice travels every year to Kiev/Moscow in support of our work, and we make consistent efforts to strengthen our relationship with the Kiev and Moscow governmental and business communities.

Full Embassy Support: Our office understands the strategies for successful fiancée immigration from these two unique and beautiful countries. Let us manage the difficult task of the forms, the consular processing, and let us help your fiancée overseas prepare for the all important interview at the embassy. We provide the support from start to finish.

IMBRA and domestic violence: In 2006, the Fiancée Visa landscape for Russian and Ukrainian brides changed. The International Marriage Broker Regulation Act (IMBRA) set new disclosure requirements for men and women who met through a Russian or Ukraine marriage agency. A former DV prosecutor, Michael Roe understands the documentation needed under the new rules, and the way the Moscow and Kiev consular divisions handle the fiancée visa interviews. With our fiancée visa program, we will handle everything for you: the complex form preparation and submission, advice, communication in English and Russian, and advice, counsel and assistance for your beloved in preparation for the interview in Moscow or Kiev.

Our Practice Gives Back: We are proud to say that for over five years, our Fiancée Visa practice has supported an orphanage in Ukraine with purchases of pharmaceuticals, medical supplies, clothing and diapers. Our investment in the Russian and Ukrainian culture goes beyond our immigration practice...we know the culture, the processes, the embassies, and the people. We do good work for our Fiancée Visa clients, and do our best to give back to the Russian and Ukrainian communities in which we work.
