The best immigration lawyer

Tom is the best lawyer. He was able to save our family from splitting apart, after a difficult case involving deportation. He is very knowledgeable about immigration rules.

Miracle Worker

I am so grateful to Tom Moseley who helped me with my immigration. He succeeded where so many others failed. I am so appreciative for the amazing job he did. Thank you Tom.

Fantastic Lawyer, Awesome Perserverance

Mr. Moseley represented my father in two cases: the first case established a precedent for my father to apply for an 212h waiver in the sixth circuit court of appeals with the following case obtaining said waiver. Our case was incredibly complex given extenuating circumstances, with several other imm...igration attorneys advising that there wasn't a chance for my father to stay in the country. Conversely, Mr. Moseley was steadfast in his commitment to our case and was continually optimistic throughout some of the grimmest prospects. When arguing for our precedent setting case in the sixth circuit, the board would continuously argue that even if we were able to apply for a 212h waiver, they are rarely ever granted. Mr. Moseley simply answered, "We'll deal with that issue when it arises," assuring the court to focus on the situation at hand. In gathering evidence and expert witnesses for the 212h waiver hearing, he was sure to establish clear grounds of extreme hardship and good discretion on my father's behalf. He won the 212h waiver and my father is safely home with us today. I need to stress that our case was incredibly complex, with my father actually being voluntarily deported. Despite this, Mr. Moseley was able to assure that he was still able to sit his hearing for his hardship waiver. Without Mr. Moseley's expert legal practice, my family would have been destroyed. I highly recommend his services to anyone in trouble: he'll give you the best chance and fight until the bitter end.

Great job on an appeal

Tom Mosely took a case that I had lost at the trial level to the Board of Immigration Appeals and won it. I think he did a terrific job.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have known Tom Mosley for quite a few years and I have worked together with him on a number of complicated matters, including immigration proceeding, appeals to the United States Court of Appeals for the 2d Circuit, post-conviction proceedings under 28 U.S.C. 2255, etc. Tom is one of the brightest, most experienced and accomplished lawyers I have ever met. Not surprisingly, he is held in the highest regard by both the bench and the bar. His experience and knowledge in the immigration field is simply unparallelled.
