Why Work With Me
For more than 28 years, I have represented U.S. employers, foreign investors, entrepreneurs, executives, highly skilled professionals, researchers, and individuals of extraordinary ability in employment-based and investment immigration matters.
My practice is focused on matters that require careful legal analysis, strategic planning, and a thorough understanding of an increasingly complex immigration system. I work directly with clients to identify the immigration strategy that best addresses their immediate needs while taking into account their longer-term business, professional, and immigration objectives.
Every case is handled personally by me, with no outsourcing and no hand-offs to junior attorneys. Clients receive direct access to experienced counsel, individualized legal analysis, and a strategy tailored to the particular facts and objectives of their matter.

Experienced Counsel for Complex U.S. Immigration Matters
U.S. immigration law is increasingly complex, and the appropriate strategy often depends on more than eligibility for a single visa or green card category. Timing, maintenance of status, work authorization, travel, employer obligations, corporate structure, immigrant intent, and long-term permanent residence objectives can all affect the appropriate course of action.
I advise clients with these considerations in mind, developing immigration strategies based on the complete factual and legal picture rather than treating each filing as an isolated transaction.
Whether the matter involves an employer sponsoring a key employee, an entrepreneur building a business in the United States, an investor pursuing an E-2 or EB-5 strategy, or an accomplished professional seeking EB-1A, NIW, or O-1 classification, my focus is on providing clear, practical, and strategically sound immigration counsel.
Schedule a Consultation
Immigration strategy is highly fact-specific. A consultation provides an opportunity to evaluate your circumstances, identify potential immigration options, and discuss the legal and practical considerations that may affect the appropriate strategy.
