Hello!  My name is Nimsy Garcia, and I am the founder of the US immigration law firm, The Traveling Immigration Attorney.. I have offices in Wyoming and Colorado, but I travel frequently to work directly with clients and offer American immigration assistance to clients all over the United States and the world.. Prior experience: I have been involved in immigration law since 2009. I started as a volunteer for various local and national pro bono organizations where I gained experience in humanitarian immigration law. In 2012, I enlisted in the US Army JAG Corps and have supported missions in legal assistance, international law, and military justice. Recently, I led efforts to help over 700 Soldiers with US citizenship and naturalization. I also helped provide immigration guidance to DoD employees impacted by the withdrawal of US troops in Afghanistan. Now, I serve as a trial defense attorney and assist Soldiers facing adverse administrative actions. At the same time, in private practice, I have worked on family visas, such as consular processing, adjustment of status, and employment-based visas like H-1Bs, H-2A/Bs, EB-3s, and EB-5s.. All of my experience combined has contributed to my success in a wide range of immigration topics in family-based, humanitarian, business, U.S. citizenship, and even military immigration matters.. In combination with my real-life experiences, like living abroad in Mexico, Spain, France, and Brazil, I believe I have a unique perspective on immigration; the challenges immigrants face, an understanding of different cultures and legal systems, and a strong sense of empathy to understand my clients needs and to support my clients in navigating America's complex immigration system.. For this reason, I work tirelessly to provide legal services that are easily accessible with tele-law offices, virtual and in-person appointments.. Well, thank you for your interest, and hope to hear from you soon!

I am an attorney representing multinational companies, U.S. based-startups, and entrepreneurs, and family members of foreign relatives seeking to obtain immigration benefits.. My passion for immigration stems from my own personal circumstances. Like many, my grandparents immigrated to the U.S. around the turn of the last century from the Southern Mediterranean. But beyond that, I personally sponsored my spouse years ago, which allowed me to directly experience the process (and its uncertainties, ambiguities, etc.). That experience made me decide to dedicate my professional life to assisting others immigrate to the U.S.

Having spent years abroad studying or working in Morocco, Spain, Lebanon, and Yemen, I have experience handling intercultural issues that surround modern living.  Before embarking on a career as a lawyer, I worked as a published writer, copywriter, paralegal, and non-profit administrator.  I bring a wealth of experience to my practice of law and have personally encountered a range of immigration issues myself both stateside and abroad.  With my firsthand knowledge of real immigration issues, I offer unique answers to immigration problems.. While at law school, I participated in my school's Appellate Litigation Clinic as a certified legal intern.  The experience I gained there -- including drafting a petition for certorari to the U.S. Supreme Court and representing a prevailing client in a high-profile family law case at the Pennsylvania Superior Court -- enabled me to draft other briefs in appellate settings while I worked at an immigration firm as a law clerk.  I have drafted winning appellate briefs that were submitted before the Board of Immigration Appeals, the Administrative Appeals Office, the Pennsylvania Superior Court, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit,  and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit.. I enjoy challenging cases in family, immigration, transactional, and appellate law and always look forward to helping clients resolve their particular issue.

I am intimately familiar with the immigration process from both the client and attorney perspective.. I was born and raised in Montreal, Canada and attended college and law school in the United States pursuant to a student visa.  As a young immigration attorney, I married an American citizen processing my own applications for conditional and permanent residence.  Subsequently, I became a naturalized United States citizen.. Since 1992, I have assisted thousands of individuals and companies successfully navigate a complex and rather daunting immigration system.. Never forgetting my experience as an immigrant, my primary focus is providing each client with a clear understanding of the immigration steps that lie ahead as well as a realistic assessment of the results that can be achieved.  Each client expects and is entitled to an honest evaluation.
