Welcome to the site of The Immigration Professor/ Immigration Attorney, Robert Perkins. Since 1989, our immigration attorney Robert Perkins has successfully represented thousands of individuals and companies from all over the world in their immigration cases. Originally starting practice in Chicago, it has expanded to where he represents immigration clients all across the United States. Mr. Perkins subsequently moved to Los Angeles, but still visits Chicago frequently as well as New Jersey. Due to advances in technology, he is able to represent clients via phone, Skype, FaceTime, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, and more all across the United States and worldwide. Attorney Perkins is dedicated to empowering clients with knowledge about their immigration situation to lessen their stress about the process. He represents cases from obtaining a green card to obtaining U.S. citizenship to asylum.
Our Immigration Attorney Robert Perkins graduated Magna Cum Laude from Beloit College in 1986 and received his J.D., Magna Cum Laude, from the University of Illinois College of Law in 1989. He then started practicing law at the prestigious international firm of Denton's (at the time called Sonnenschein Nath and Rosenthal). In 1994, he established his own law firm, focusing exclusively on immigration law, which involves visas, green cards, U.S. citizenship, and anything else immigration-related.
Mr. Perkins has represented hundreds of clients in deportation defense cases including asylum, cancellation of removal, criminal waivers, and more. He also has represented a variety of tech and other firms in business immigration matters including H-1B, H-2B, E-2, R-1, O-1, PERM, EB-1, and more.

Cindy Gonzalez, our wonderful Office Manager, has been working in Immigration Law for two years and her favorite part is being able to help clients improve their lives. She works on many family-based/marriage green card cases and adjustments of status, deportation defense, cancellation cases, and cases involving the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA). She also helps put together Unlawful Presence Waiver Applications (I-601A’s) to help keep families together. She speaks English, Spanish, and Portuguese.
