Immigration Lawyer Serving Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
Ahmad & Associates serves clients in Harrisburg and across Central Pennsylvania in the full range of U.S. immigration matters, including removal defense before the immigration courts.
Harrisburg and the surrounding Central Pennsylvania region — including Mechanicsburg, Carlisle, Hershey, Lebanon, and York — are home to growing immigrant communities, including families, agricultural and manufacturing workers, students, and professionals navigating the U.S. immigration system.
Attorney Anser Ahmad is admitted to the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania and to the United States District Courts for the Eastern and Middle Districts of Pennsylvania, and is a member of the Pennsylvania Bar Association. The firm represents Pennsylvania clients in family-based immigration, citizenship, asylum, hardship waivers, and deportation defense, including bond hearings, motions to reopen, and BIA and federal court appeals.
Because immigration law is federal, Ahmad & Associates serves clients in the Harrisburg area from its Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania office, from its principal office in McLean, Virginia, and through remote consultation, and appears in the federal immigration courts that hear Pennsylvania matters.
Please note: Ahmad & Associates serves Central Pennsylvania from its office at 5000 Ritter Rd, Suite 202, Mechanicsburg, PA 17055, and from its principal office at 8000 Westpark Drive, Suite 630, McLean, VA 22102. Remote consultation is also available throughout the region.
