How we practice

Work directly with an attorney

No intake funnel that drops you onto a paralegal and a ticket number. You speak with an attorney on the clarity call, and an attorney stays accountable for your file through to filing.

Cross-border, both systems

Licensed in Michigan and Alberta, we look at your whole picture and tell you whether the answer is a U.S. visa, a move north, a Canadian PR route, or a citizenship claim you didn't know you had.

Strategy, not a single bet

We plan around alternatives — H-1B backups, concurrent filings, parallel green-card tracks — so a “no” in one place doesn't end the plan.

Transparent flat-fee pricing

Most matters are quoted as a flat attorney fee before any work begins, with government filing fees and taxes shown separately. No open-ended hourly surprises.

Alyssa Hussein, founding attorney

Alyssa Hussein founded Crossing Frontiers to give clients something larger firms rarely offer: an attorney who personally handles the case from the first conversation to the final filing, not a rotating cast of paralegals and case managers.

Her background spans multinational technology and manufacturing companies, early-stage startups, and international work across the Middle East and Asia. That range means the practice understands the situations clients are actually in — the founder racing a funding round, the family tracing a citizenship claim across three generations, the company that just won a contract and needs someone on the ground next quarter.

Alyssa built the practice to be genuinely cross-border rather than U.S.-focused with a Canada footnote. Licensed in both countries, she can look at a client's full situation and recommend whichever path actually fits — including the ones a single-country firm would never see.

Work with an attorney who handles your case

Many L-1 visa holders ultimately seek permanent residency in the United States, particularly for L-1A executives and managers via the EB-1C category. Please engage an attorney to discuss your unique pathway.
