She has extensive experience in corporate and business immigration issues. Ms. Basmaji has assisted clients with internal transfers from other countries as well as external hires. Her experience with complex immigration regulations has made her an invaluable resource for executives and HR professionals. She has assisted many clients seeking employment or family-based permanent residency status.

Ms. Basmaji has frequently represented clients at adjustment of status interviews at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and at ports of entry on matters before the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Agency.
