Based outside of Washington, DC in Reston, Virginia, Goel & Anderson offers clients its extensive experience and a comprehensive understanding of all areas of business, employment, and family-based immigration law. Our other great resources are the skill, vision, and creativity of our lawyers who are truly immigration strategists. We help clients develop effective immigration and global mobility programs, maximize successful immigration outcomes, and avoid the pitfalls of immigration compliance.

We succeed, in part, because we have a better understanding of how the government thinks. We spent significant time doing just that kind of thinking ourselves on the other side of the fence working on immigration issues in key government positions. It gives us unique insight into what matters to the people whose decisions matter so much to our clients.

The firm maintains exceptionally high professional standards. Our immigration attorneys speak regularly on immigration issues as recognized leaders within a highly specialized bar and are active in industry groups such as the American Immigration Lawyers Association, the Society for Human Resource Management and various bar associations.
