Areas of Practice

Micha Luft – Law Firm specializes in immigration and civilian status cases as well as representation vis-à-vis the Ministry of Interior's Immigration and Population Authority.
In Israel, the Ministry of Interior serves and the government authority exclusively responsible for all matters concerning the registration of Israelis in the population registry as well as all permits (visas) granted to foreigners who are not Israeli. Dealing with the Ministry of Interior, particularly on important, complex and sensitive matters, can prove both difficult and frustrating. Many are unable to hold their own before the Ministry's officials and prefer to engage the services of an attorney, who can assist them in successfully completing the process.
