How a US law firm serves clients in Chiclayo
Many individuals and businesses in Chiclayo encounter US legal issues—whether it is a family member immigrating, a business contract governed by US law, or a cross-border family dispute. Law Offices of SRIS, P.C. provides US legal counsel without requiring you to travel to the United States. Our attorneys are admitted in Virginia, Maryland, the District of Columbia, New Jersey, and New York, and we handle matters before US federal agencies, including USCIS, and state courts. We work with clients remotely, using secure communication and document sharing, and we coordinate with our Peru Of Counsel when Peruvian law is implicated.
Because we are a US law firm, we do not practice Peruvian law.

This division ensures that each side of your matter is handled by an attorney qualified in the relevant jurisdiction.
