Ricci Law Immigration

Brazilian-Led Immigration Law Firm in Orlando, Florida

Ricci Law Immigration is an immigration law firm based in Orlando, Florida, focused on helping foreign nationals invest, work and live legally in the United States. Led by Brazilian attorney Viviane Ricci, the firm combines U.S. immigration practice with decades of experience in Brazilian business and contract law, serving individuals, families, professionals and investors, with a strong concentration of clients from Brazil.

Its principal base is an office on South Kirkman Road in Orlando, complemented by an office on Avenida Paulista in São Paulo and a presence in Porto, Portugal. The firm states that it is authorized to operate as a law practice in Brazil, Portugal and the United States, and it conducts initial consultations with U.S.-licensed immigration attorneys.

⚖️ A PRACTICE BUILT ON CROSS-BORDER LEGAL EXPERIENCE**

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Viviane Ricci has practiced law in Brazil since graduating from FMU in São Paulo in 1995, founding her first office shortly afterward. In 2012 she became a founding partner of Ricci, Rathsam e Junqueira Advogados in São Paulo. Her academic background includes a Master of Laws in American Law from Barry University School of Law in Florida, an MBA in Economics and Law from FGV, and postgraduate studies in business law (FMU) and contracts (PUC-SP).

That business-law foundation shapes the firm’s approach to immigration. Many U.S. pathways, including investor visas, intracompany transfers and employment-based green cards, depend as much on how a company, an investment or a career is structured and documented as on the petition itself. Ricci Law Immigration positions its work at that intersection.

🛂 IMMIGRATION SERVICES**

The firm organizes its practice into four areas: employment-based immigration, temporary work visas, family-based immigration and humanitarian categories. Within them, it handles:

– E-2 treaty investor visas
– L-1A intracompany transfers for executives and managers
– O-1 visas for individuals with extraordinary ability
– H-1B specialty occupation visas
– Marriage- and family-based petitions and adjustment of status
– Naturalization
– Humanitarian matters, including asylum, VAWA, SIJS, DACA and human-trafficking cases
– Representation in removal (deportation) proceedings

Prospective clients typically begin with a green card eligibility analysis, available through an online form or by WhatsApp.

👥 LEGAL TEAM**

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Viviane Ricci leads the firm and, according to its website, is a member of the American Bar Association, the Federal Bar Association and the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA). She is fluent in Portuguese, English, Spanish and Italian.

Immigration attorney Eric Albertsen focuses on business visas such as E-2, L-1A, H-1B and EB-2 NIW, as well as family petitions and adjustment of status, and regularly represents clients before USCIS. He holds a J.D. from Barry University School of Law and is admitted to the Florida Bar, the District of Columbia Bar and the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida. Before private practice, he held a political appointment at the U.S. Department of Commerce in Washington, D.C.

The case team includes professionals with long legal careers in Brazil, among them a retired Brazilian public defender and a former state prosecutor from Rio de Janeiro, who help clients assemble Brazilian documentation. They work alongside paralegals, case coordinators and a financial specialist. From the São Paulo practice, partners Pedro Paulo Rocha Junqueira and Guilherme H. F. Rathsam bring experience in civil, family, real estate and corporate matters.

🇧🇷 SERVING BRAZILIAN AND INTERNATIONAL CLIENTS**

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Most of the team works in Portuguese, English and Spanish, and the firm publishes its website in all three languages. For Brazilian clients, this means strategy, eligibility questions and document preparation can be handled in their own language. The staff knows Brazilian civil records, corporate documents and legal procedures, which is a practical advantage in cases that rest on proving a career, a business or a family relationship built in Brazil.
