LEGAL CONSULTATION
As your company continues to expand globally, either you or your employees will have to travel to build personal contact and trust with your new partners or suppliers. You will need to enter into your new market to see for yourself what is going on, to have some way to judge the accuracy of what your in-house experts tell you, and to get an idea about what your next step should be.
But before you can start out on such a trip, you need to deal with the necessary paperwork: getting or renewing your passport, obtaining the necessary visa, learning which immunization shots you need and making arrangements to receive them, and familiarizing yourself with the country's health situation.
Even students have to be aware of certain laws. For instance, what type of visa do you need to study abroad, can you leave the country and return, can you apply for a Green Card, or extend your visa? As these are serious issues that can impact your academic career, you need the most accurate information. And then there is the lottery ... your chance to come to America without all of the usual paperwork. We will guide you through the entire process so that your application will be correct in all respects.
Businesspeople have to consider many issues when dealing with foreign companies. For example, are you an expert on the country's laws and regulations? What are your recourses in the event of a broken contract, an unfulfilled order, a lawsuit claiming that your product is defective or caused injury? What are acceptable business practices? Are under-the-table payments expected? Are they legal, illegal, ethical or unethical? Our team of lawyers is well-versed in all of these matters. We will make them available to you at a reasonable cost when you hire Potomac B.C..
For businesspeople, our personnel will clarify all legal and financial matters, help you acquire the appropriate visa, explain how you can get a Green Card, and ensure that your company functions according to the law. In addition, we will provide you with an invitation letter either from Potomac B.C. or from the company or academic institution you would like to visit. We also will acquire and protect your licenses and patents.
For students, we will work with your chosen academic institution to obtain the I-20 form, determine which type of visa you need, help you through the application process, and make your trip here as pleasant and easy as possible. |
