I advise start-up and established U.S. businesses of various sizes on how to implement and maintain immigration programs in a wide range of industries, including hospitality, media, marketing, fine arts, technology, financial services, and others. I counsel my clients to create worksite compliance programs that facilitate the transfer of employees to their U.S. operations. I also represent individual clients on various immigration matters, such as sponsorship based on familial relationships as well as nationality issues, including the acquisition and retention of U.S. citizenship.
