Jeanelle Mehta

Jeanelle Mehta is an immigration law attorney and Of Counsel at Khanna Law, PLLC in Reston, Virginia. She practices exclusively in immigration law and represents clients in family-based and employment immigration matters, asylum, humanitarian parole, U-visa cases, naturalization, consular processing, adjustments of status, fiancé visas, waivers, and Form I-9 compliance. Her work serves individuals, families, employees, and employers navigating federal immigration processes.

Mehta earned a J.D. from the University of Cincinnati College of Law and a B.A. from Pennsylvania State University. Her legal education supports a practice involving federal statutes, administrative procedures, documentation, and complex client circumstances. That background helps her analyze eligibility, identify procedural options, prepare applications and supporting records, and guide clients through immigration matters that can affect family unity, employment, lawful status, and long-term residence in the United States.

Mehta previously represented businesses and business owners in litigation, contract drafting and negotiation, and IRS tax matters in Ohio. She also represented citizen and non-citizen clients in criminal, OVI, divorce, and dissolution matters before moving to Virginia. Her current immigration work includes family petitions, employment-based visas and national interest waivers, asylum and withholding applications, humanitarian parole, and immigration relief for qualifying victims through U-visa procedures.

Jeanelle Mehta volunteers with Hogar Immigrant Services, where she represents indigent clients in immigration matters. Her broader litigation, contract, tax, criminal, and family-law background gives her perspective on issues that can overlap with immigration status and case strategy. She focuses on helping clients understand complicated procedures, prepare accurate filings, and pursue available immigration options with organized advocacy and practical attention to the personal and business consequences of each case.
