Immigration lawyers in Kentucky
Immigration in Kentucky
Louisville has become one of the South's most important refugee-resettlement hubs, while the state's auto plants (Toyota in Georgetown, Ford in Louisville) and UPS's Worldport global air hub draw both skilled and logistics workers. Major population centers include Louisville, Lexington and Bowling Green.
Work spans automotive and logistics employment visas, equine-industry matters around Lexington, family immigration, and a heavy humanitarian docket — asylum and adjustment — for Louisville's resettled communities.
