Florida Panhandle Immigration Attorney

The Florida Panhandle — the Emerald Coast — combines a major military presence with a thriving Gulf-front tourism economy. From Naval Air Station Pensacola to the beaches of Destin, the region is home to military families, international spouses, and hospitality entrepreneurs. Attorney Ekaterina Fitenko, Esq. and Fitenko Law PLLC stand with Panhandle families, in English and Russian, as part of a statewide practice.

Emerald Coast Communities We Serve

We serve Escambia, Santa Rosa, Okaloosa, Walton, Holmes, Washington, Bay, Jackson, Calhoun, Gulf, Liberty, and Franklin counties along the coast, including Pensacola, Panama City, Destin, Fort Walton Beach, Navarre, Crestview, and Niceville.

A Military and Tourism Economy

The Panhandle economy is shaped by the military — NAS Pensacola, Eglin Air Force Base, and Hurlburt Field — alongside Emerald Coast tourism, healthcare, and aerospace contractors. That military and hospitality base makes family-based immigration and investor visas the focus of our Panhandle practice.

Family-Based Immigration for Military Spouses

Service members with foreign-born spouses rely on us for marriage green cards, K-1 fiancé(e) petitions, and adjustment of status.

E-2 Investor & Employment Visas

Emerald Coast tourism businesses support E-2 investors, and contractors support H-1B specialists.

USCIS Jurisdiction in the Panhandle

Your case is handled by the USCIS field office in Tallahassee, which serves the Panhandle. We pin down the correct jurisdiction early and build the filing around it. We represent you by secure video, so service schedules and distance are no barrier.

Standing With Military Families

The Panhandle's military communities include many international spouses and families, who we represent in fluent English and Russian.
