U.S. Immigration Lawyer for Czech Citizens
Czech-Speaking U.S. Immigration Attorney
Mluvím česky. Konzultace jsou možné v češtině i v angličtině.
I am a U.S. immigration attorney and a graduate of the Faculty of Law at Masaryk University in Brno, Czech Republic. I am fluent in both Czech and English and have more than 20 years of experience helping individuals, families, professionals, entrepreneurs, investors, researchers, and athletes navigate U.S. immigration law.
Unlike most immigration attorneys in the United States, I have a legal education from the Czech Republic and understand both the Czech and American legal systems. This unique background allows me to assist clients whose matters involve legal issues, documents, court records, business interests, or other circumstances connected to both countries.
Over the years, I have represented clients in a wide range of immigration matters, including investor visas, extraordinary ability petitions, National Interest Waiver cases, employment-based green cards, family-based immigration, consular processing, and U.S. citizenship matters.
Why Czech Clients Contact Me
Many legal issues involving Czech citizens require more than a general understanding of U.S. immigration law. Immigration officers often review foreign court records, business documents, educational credentials, and other evidence originating in the Czech Republic. Properly analyzing these materials may require an understanding of the underlying Czech legal concepts and terminology.
Because I am fluent in Czech and have a legal education from the Czech Republic, I am able to review many Czech legal documents in their original language and evaluate how they may affect a person’s immigration options under U.S. law.
Recently, I assisted a Czech entrepreneur following an E-2 visa interview in Prague where the U.S. consulate requested additional information regarding a prior criminal conviction under Czech law. The matter required analysis of the Czech court judgment and evaluation of the immigration consequences under U.S. law. Cases involving foreign convictions often require careful legal analysis because U.S. immigration law does not always treat foreign offenses the same way the foreign country does.
Immigration Services for Czech Citizens
I represent Czech citizens in a broad range of immigration matters, including E-2 investor visas, National Interest Waiver petitions, EB-1 extraordinary ability cases, O-1 visas, employment-based green cards, family-based immigration, consular processing, and naturalization.
Many of my clients are entrepreneurs, investors, scientists, researchers, executives, engineers, physicians, athletes, and other highly accomplished professionals seeking opportunities in the United States.
I also assist Czech citizens who encounter complex immigration issues involving prior criminal matters, visa denials, requests for additional evidence, admissibility concerns, and other situations requiring detailed legal analysis.
E-2 Visas for Czech Entrepreneurs
The Czech Republic is a treaty country for E-2 investor visas. Czech entrepreneurs and investors may qualify to live and work in the United States by making a qualifying investment in a U.S. business. I assist clients throughout the E-2 process, from evaluating eligibility and investment requirements to preparing the application and supporting evidence for submission to the U.S. Embassy in Prague.

National Interest Waivers and EB-1 Green Cards
Researchers, scientists, physicians, engineers, entrepreneurs, executives, and other highly accomplished professionals may qualify for permanent residence through the National Interest Waiver or EB-1 categories. These categories can provide a path to permanent residence without the lengthy labor certification process required in many other employment-based immigration cases.

Czech Criminal Convictions and U.S. Immigration Law
One of the most specialized areas of my practice involves analyzing the immigration consequences of foreign criminal convictions.
When a visa applicant or green card applicant has a criminal history in the Czech Republic, U.S. immigration authorities may examine the underlying statute, court records, and facts of the case to determine whether the offense affects admissibility or eligibility for immigration benefits.
Because I understand both Czech legal terminology and U.S. immigration law, I am often able to assist clients in evaluating these issues and developing an appropriate legal strategy.

Cross-Border U.S.-Czech Legal Issues
Some matters involve legal issues in both the Czech Republic and the United States. These cases may require coordination with Czech attorneys, review of Czech legal documents, analysis of business ownership structures, or evaluation of legal issues arising in both jurisdictions.
My background allows me to bridge these two legal systems and help clients understand how events occurring in one country may affect legal rights and opportunities in the other.
