DV 2019.

Every year the Department of State administers the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program.  These diversity immigrants come from countries with historically low rates of immigration in the United States.  So what does 2019 look like?  Here are some of the facts.  There will be 50,000 diversity visas available in the upcoming year.

If you or a loved one is an applicant who is selected in the program, the steps to success are simple but strict.  Selectees will be determined by a computerized random drawing.  No single country may receive more than 7% of the available DV’s in any given year.  There are several countries whose citizens are NOT eligible to apply as well.

To learn the facts and get the help that you seek in the immigration process please contact Maryland immigration attorney Briana Arnold.  She has dealt with issues involving future American citizens for years.  Arrange an appointment at her office located at 1777 Reisterstown Road Suite 385 in Baltimore by calling (410) 484-1400.

What to do if You are a Pedestrian Hit by a Car.

It is a scary thought indeed.  Maybe you are walking in a crosswalk and a car turns right and hits you.  It happens hundreds of times every year in Baltimore County.  Hopefully, the injuries that you may sustain will be minimized by the fact that the vehicle was traveling at a slow speed.  Still, this is a classic David vs. Goliath!

Here are some steps you can take immediately –

1.  Stay calm.  Move out of the street if you are able.

2.  Don’t let the driver leave.

3.  Call the police and have everyone wait for them.

4.  Collect plenty of info. on the driver.

5.  Take as many photos as you can.

6.  Call a lawyer.

As to that last point, if you are a pedestrian and you are struck by a car please remember the name Briana Arnold.  She is a Baltimore area car and pedestrian accident attorney.  She will represent you in a thorough and aggressive fashion.  Here is her phone number (410) 484-1400.  That’s the Baltimore law office of Briana Arnold at 1777 Reisterstown Road Suite 385.
