Van Der Hout LLP has specialized in the practice of immigration and nationality law since the firm was founded by Marc Van Der Hout in 1980. Collectively, our San Francisco immigration lawyers have over 100 years of experience. Located in San Francisco (Union Square), California, we have developed a national reputation for representing our clients in a broad variety of matters including family and employment sponsorship, removal proceedings, federal court litigation, asylum and naturalization. We are particularly known for taking on and winning difficult cases. Our principal attorneys represent the best over multiple generations of immigration attorneys: Marc Van Der Hout, Zachary M. Nightingale, Jennifer Shih, Johnny Sinodis, Lauren Gibson and our newest partners Minal Shah and Claire Razzolini. Marc and Zach have met the rigorous standards required to be certified by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization. Recognizing that each case is unique and fact specific, our attorneys treat each client and matter as deserving of individualized attention without cutting corners. This attention to detail in the analysis and the preparation of each case, combined with the breadth of experience and expertise of our attorneys, sets us apart from nearly every other immigration law firm in the country.
