Biography

I graduated from NYU Law School in 1989 and began practicing immigration law in 1990. I focus on immigration court cases, federal district court immigration cases and U.S. courts of appeals immigration cases. My practice is nationwide. I have appeared in immigration courts all over the country including New York City; Detroit, Michigan; Cleveland, Ohio; Tucson, Arizona; Chicago, Illinois; and Los Angeles, California.

I am ready to fight for you whether you seeking to stay with your family or a company who has been denied hiring the best talent from abroad.

13 Questions Answered
Q. i have a friend that was detained by ICE for crossing the border illegally, he has been detained for over a month now.
A: You can ask ICE to release or file a bond motion depending on how your friend entered and if he was placed in proceedings. This is complicated and and the best chances of getting your friend release is with a lawyer. I strongly suggest to hire a lawyer.
Q. Do I have to mention about my speeding ticket (that has been cleared from record) on my oath ceremony form?
A: You should be honest and answer yes
