Immigration Law for Global Talent, Founders, and Families
About the Firm
Terrica Jennings & Associates is a boutique law firm focused exclusively on U.S. immigration law. We provide strategic, results-oriented legal counsel to individuals and companies navigating the complex intersection of immigration, professional success, and cross-border life.
Our clients are not typical — and neither are we. We work with athletes, entertainers, executives, physicians, researchers, entrepreneurs, investors, and global families whose lives require clarity, discretion, and seamless immigration support. Whether you’re preparing for a tour, a product launch, a hospital contract, or a consular interview, our team builds legal strategies that are efficient, tailored, and future-proof.
Our core focus areas include:
- Employment-Based Immigration: O-1, P, H-1B, L-1, TN, EB-1, EB-2, and EB-2 NIW pathways
- Investor & Entrepreneur Visas: L-1 and E-2 for business owners and multinational executives
- Healthcare & Physician Immigration: J-1 waivers (Conrad 30), sponsorship for nurses and PAs, and H-1B/EB green cards for medical providers
- Waivers of Inadmissibility: I-601 (extreme hardship), I-212 (permission to reapply), and consular troubleshooting
- Family-Based Immigration: Green card and consular strategies for spouses, children, and dependents
What sets us apart is not just what we do — it’s how we do it. We act quickly. We communicate clearly. We understand how immigration affects business, families, and lives. And we treat every case like it matters — because to us, it does.
We serve clients across all 50 states and internationally.
OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU
At Terrica Jennings & Associates, we do more than file immigration petitions — we build trusted, long-term partnerships with individuals whose careers, families, and futures depend on strategic legal support. Our clients turn to us not just for what we do, but for how we show up: with urgency, clarity, and care.
Our commitment is built on three guiding principles:
Tailored Strategy, Not Templates
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all immigration solutions. Whether you’re a professional athlete on a tight timeline, a physician navigating a J-1 waiver, or a founder preparing to scale, your goals are unique — and so is our legal strategy. We invest time in understanding your background, your risks, and your next steps, so we can chart a path forward with precision and intention.
Cultural Fluency & Empathy
Terrica Jennings’ identity as a Black Caribbean woman and first-generation attorney shapes everything about how we serve. We understand the stakes. We understand the fear. And we honor the personal, generational, and emotional weight that immigration carries. That’s why we lead with both legal skill and real-world empathy — ensuring you feel heard, respected, and seen.
Trusted Legal Expertise
With over 15 years of experience and a track record of success across employment-based, investor, family, and waiver-based immigration matters, our firm provides deep, reliable expertise. We are licensed in Washington, D.C. and Florida, with bar admission pending in Maryland, and serve clients nationwide and abroad.
At Terrica Jennings & Associates, we are your attorneys — but also your advocates, advisors, and allies. Our commitment is to deliver more than outcomes. It’s to give you peace of mind, power in your process, and legal strategy that’s built to last.
