• Immigration training and compliance, including I-9 and E-verify compliance and Social Security no-match counseling
• Drafting employment verification compliance policies
• Conducting internal I-9 audits
• Assisting during government audits and investigations, including I-9 audits, immigration-related unfair employment practices investigations, H-1B Labor Condition Application Wage & Hour audits and H-1B on-site fraud inspections

We work with companies in a variety of industries to assist with the acquisition of international talent through the sponsorship of U.S. work visas, permanent residence applications and other immigration benefits. In the healthcare arena, Waller helped to develop Tennessee's Conrad State 30 program for J-1 physician waivers and secured the first physician waiver in the state under that program.

Waller's immigration attorneys represent high-net worth individuals wishing to gain access to the United States by investing in or establishing a commercial enterprise. While there are many challenges and opportunities for high-net worth foreign investors and entrepreneurs seeking to immigrate to the U.S., we assist these individuals in obtaining U.S. permanent residency through the EB-5 investor program.
