WHERE I HELP CLIENTS

Based in Athens, Serving Clients Across Georgia

Immigration law is federal. USCIS interviews for Georgia residents are held at the USCIS Atlanta Field Office, so where you live in Georgia does not limit who can help you. My office is in Athens, and many of my clients come from these Northeast Georgia communities.

Attorney Samuel E. Thomas

Why Work With Me

Athens rooted

I am a fourth-generation Athens business owner. When you call, you reach a local office, not a national call center.

You work with me

Direct attorney access from consultation through your decision. You are not handed off to a rotating set of staff.

Honest answers

An honest assessment of your options and risks before anything is filed. You will know what is happening and what comes next.

Language help

A professional interpretation service is available, so language does not have to be a barrier to understanding your case.

QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you offer a free consultation?

Yes. Your first consultation is free. You can book online or call or text 706-546-0999, and you will speak with attorney Samuel E. Thomas, not a call center.

Do I need to live in Athens to work with you?

No. Immigration law is federal, and USCIS interviews for Georgia residents are held at the USCIS Atlanta Field Office. My office is in Athens, and I help clients from Athens, Northeast Georgia, and across the state.

What should I bring to my consultation?

Bring your passport and other identity documents, your I-94 record if you have one, any notices or letters from USCIS or immigration court, copies of past applications, and any birth or marriage certificates that relate to your case. If you have ever been arrested, bring the court records for each case.

Do you work with clients who do not speak English?

Yes. I work with a professional interpretation service so we can communicate during your consultation and throughout your case. Tell the office your preferred language when you book.

You Do Not Have to Navigate This Alone

Whether you are filing a family petition, applying for citizenship, or renewing DACA, you will get honest answers, a clear explanation of what comes next, and a plan built around your case.
