Visto Seguro
U.S. Visa Consulting for Brazilian Residents
Did you know that between 150k and 250k Brazilian citizens are denied U.S. tourist visas every year? This staggering number and a lack of resources or options for these individuals led Richards & Richards Law Firm to focus on offering U.S. visa consulting for Brazilian residents who have experienced this. The reasons for these denials vary widely, from incomplete DS-160 forms to concerns about overstaying. But the outcome is often the same–confusion, frustration, and uncertainty about what to do next. That’s where Visto Seguro comes in.

The Story Behind Visto Seguro
Visto Seguro was founded out of a deep commitment to helping individuals overcome the unique challenges of U.S. visa applications. Kevin Richards’ own immigration story set the foundation. Married to his wife from Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, Kevin experienced immigration complexities firsthand when she became his first-ever “client.” That personal experience has fueled his career-long dedication to helping people succeed in their immigration journeys.
Kevin observed a critical gap in services for Brazilians denied U.S. tourist visas and responded by creating Visto Seguro. Today, the service remains the only attorney-led firm in the country that combines legal expertise, strategic planning, and deep cultural understanding for visa reapplications.
