Love Without Borders: Insights from Our Special Webinar
Love may be limitless—but immigration laws and family legal systems often aren’t. That’s why Pinay Law hosted “Love Without Borders,” a free and informative webinar designed to guide individuals and couples through the complex realities of international love, immigration, and marriage.
Held virtually, the event brought together attendees from across the globe, each hoping to better understand how to navigate the legal side of love—whether that means bringing a fiancé to the U.S., managing a long-distance relationship, or preparing for marriage and potential divorce.
A Powerful Lineup of Legal Experts
The webinar featured a well-rounded panel of experienced attorneys who shared legal insights, personal advice, and practical guidance:
- Atty. Janice Dantes – As the founder of Pinay Law and a seasoned family law attorney, Janice spoke on topics often left out of immigration conversations: divorce, alimony, and the importance of prenuptial and postnuptial agreements. She encouraged couples to not only follow their hearts, but also protect their futures through careful legal planning.
- Atty. Alberto Gonzales – A Tagalog and Spanish-speaking immigration attorney, Alberto covered the K-1 fiancé visa, green card marriage, and red flags to avoid. His culturally informed insights were especially helpful for immigrant and mixed-culture couples.
- Atty. Veda Maniquis – Atty. Veda provided deep, thoughtful guidance on adjustment of status, immigration timelines, and navigating the emotional weight of long-distance relationships affected by visa delays.
- Atty. Jath Shao – Also an experienced immigration attorney, shared key strategies on immigration interview preparation, maintaining eligibility throughout the process, and how evolving immigration policies affect couples trying to build a life together in the U.S.
