The American legal system was not built for your family.
A coaching and navigation service for highly skilled immigrant families — built by people who have been exactly where you are.
H1B Family helps highly skilled immigrants navigate the three moments that can define — or destroy — everything you built here.
ONE: WHEN A FAMILY MEMBER DIES
A physician immigrates, builds a life, accumulates significant assets. When she dies her family finds the nearest attorney. He charges a modest fee and files the paperwork. He never asks what she did for a living nor understood our high savings rate.
TWO: WHEN THE SCHOOL CALLS
A "wellness concern" email arrives from school. It sounds friendly. It is not. It is the beginning of an institutional record. The parents respond the only way they know. The child is caught between two worlds that cannot speak to each other.
THREE: WHEN THE FAMILY FRACTURES
He came on an H1B. He worked. Everything built during the marriage belongs equally to both spouses. It was arranged marriage culture. He did not know her family. He misspoke to the police.
