About Iara Nogueira Morton

I am a native of Brazil who moved to Southern California in 1991, where I got my B.A. with Honors from UCI, and then my JD from Whittier Law School, also in Irvine, CA. During my law school studies I focused on private & public international law, taking a semester in Paris, France, through a program offered by Tulane Law School at the Université de Paris II.

Upon graduation, I was very blessed to have been interviewed by numerous top firms in NYC, DC and Miami, and chose to join Holland & Knight in Miami, in 1999. I passed both the FL & NY Bars in my first attempt (and waived into the DC Bar) and worked at the International Business Department of H&K and thereafter, at Fowler White Burnett.

In October 2001, I decided to open up my own firm and have since focused on business & family based immigration law, personal injury, uncontested divorces and some aspects of real estate transactions and international tax. Over 17 years now, we have accumulated numerous success stories, always offering very personalized attention to all of our clients, having their success, invariably, as our main goal.

The vast majority of our clients are Brazilian nationals migrating to Florida, but we also have clients in several other States.  Our detail oriented practice focuses on international business, immigrant and nonimmigrant visas, family unity immigrant petitions pursued within the U.S. and also through consular process.

We have dutifully completed countless immigrant and non-immigrant filings, for investors, multinational executives, professionals, athletes, artists, religious workers, as well as achieving immense success in other areas in which we also practice, having received the "Clients’ Choice” award every year by this reliable online source, , since 2012.

As a service provider in international business immigration, our firm dedicates itself to numerous elements of corporate and immigration law.  We assist both, individuals interested in migrating to the U.S. as well as foreign companies seeking to establish their subsidiaries or branch offices in the U.

S. With regard to foreign companies, we examine their foreign corporate structure and U.S. oriented goals.  In doing so, we engage in foreign corporate asset and establishment verification as well as domestic business evaluation.  We do all of this in an effort to position our clientele on the pathway to immigrant based success.

  This success can be accomplished in numerous fashions, and by a case specific analysis, we then counsel our clients to ensure they achieve their goals, accordingly. Part of our portfolio of success is also several I-526 approved petitions through the EB5 Regional Center program, more specifically, the loan model which requires a $500,000 dollar passive investment in the form of a loan.

Furthermore, we also provide immigration services to individuals interested in sponsoring their relatives via family based petitions.  USCIS, the National Visa Center, and the Department of State control the means of immigrating to the U.S. through relatives.  Our firm’s familiarity with all necessary requisites for family based immigration aims to achieve maximum efficiency and for a smoother process.

 We have numerous I-601A provisional waivers already approved, where the immigrant spouses, whether with a prior deportation order or not, have already obtained their waivers approved within the U.S., and shortly after, their immigrant visas at the U.S. Consulates in Brazil.  Several of our clients spent just about 1 week only in Brazil to complete such process, and upon returning, they obtained their permanent Green Cards in a few weeks.

We work also with other highly qualified professionals such as Real Estate, Trust & Estates and Tax lawyers, as well as CPAs, hence, meeting all needs of our high networth clientele, offering them tax and estate planning, duly protecting their assets and reducing their risks and tax liability prior to migrating to the United States.

As to personal injury (auto accidents, slip & fall, wrongful death, etc.), we have had also outstanding success in our cases for we do not work with volume - hence, we work our personal injury cases with maximum care and attention, placing our very best efforts, exploring all possibilities, so to achieve the highest possible settlements.

At the end of the day, Nogueira Morton P.L. realizes and embraces its role, not only as a legal service provider but also as a member of our local community. We understand that our foreign clients often are presented with various legal needs.  As such, our firm offers an array of legal services, from assistance in a personal injury matter to the purchase of a residential or commercial property or the compilation of an active or passive investment process, according to our client's profile, goals, visa type and modality.

We feel privileged and honored to have been entrusted with so many matters and cases by clients of all walks of life since 2001.  We are proud and very thankful that most our clients become our best advertisement, for they are living proof of our competence, utmost dedication and zeal towards all matters we undertake.
