Yes as long as she entered the USA legally, you can marry her and then file for her green card through adjustment of status.(even if she overstays her visa). During the pendency of the adjustment application, she can get permission to work based on your spousal petition. There are some restrictions if she is in a J1 visa. Counsel anywhere in the USA can represent you and some of us charge fees that are lower than the USCIS filing fees to handle the case throughout its lifespan. The case takes about 1 year.
