Growing up in a bilingual household with a parent who immigrated from Colombia provided me with a deep appreciation for the opportunity to pursue the American dream. My personal connection to immigration has fueled my passion for zealous advocacy and desire to provide compassionate representation. I strive to empower my clients by demistifying complexities in the law and work arduously in order to obtain solutions for their legal problems.

The whole long process in obtaining a green card was well taken care off. Although communication with others in the firm was not always easy, Zachary replied within a very short amount of time. Highly recommend contacting him if you need assistance with your green card application.

If your N400 application is pending for a long time, hire Mr. Kohn to get results in 2 weeks! My application was pending for 2 years, and I exhausted all my resources, including senators, a direct letter to the director of USCIS, numerous emails and messages and phone calls to USCIS, and all I had re...
"I have worked closely with attorney Zachary Kohn for over two years. He is my go-to resource for tough cases. He is creative and resourceful when it comes to coming up with options -- often potential remedies no other attorney sees. This is one of his strongest traits. Additionally, he is well-versed in many areas of immigration law and so is able to handle virtually any matter that comes across his desk. He is a zealous advocate for his clients and a great communicator. Highly recommend."
"Attorney Kohn is an astute attorney who understand the complexities of immigration law very well. He works tirelessly for the best results for his clients, and is a very creative problem solver. Attorney Kohn is careful, efficient, and quick to understand and respond to any obstacles that are before him. Moreover, he is confident in his abilities and humble in his demeanor. I have worked with Attorney Kohn for approximately one year and can truly say he is an immigration attorney you can trust fully with your case."
"Zachary performed some work for me recently. His knowledge of Immigration and asylum law and work product was impeccable. Not only is he a great attorney, but pleasant and accommodating, a pleasure to work with."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Zach since law school. Even since law school, Zach has always had a passion for Immigration law and worked towards helping those less fortunate in this area. I remember working on several pro bono Immigration matters with Zach during law school and was always impressed with his passion for his clients and the subject matter."
"Mr. Kohn is an excellent attorney. He is bilingual in Spanish and very well-versed in immigration law. From my observations, he was always quick to respond to clients and made himself available on short notice whenever an issue with a case arose in order to resolve any problems. I saw Mr. Kohn develop and maintain good working relationship with Immigration Court staff, USCIS officials, and fellow attorneys in order to get the best possible outcomes for his clients. In addition to Immigration law, Mr. Kohn has experience with family law and criminal law matters, with a keen eye for details as to how it affected his client's immigration case. He is a fast problem solver and a fierce advocate for clients. I would gladly refer cases to him as a fellow attorney."

"I endorse Zachary Kohn. I have known him for a couple years and have seen him in court. I found him to be an excellent advocate for his clients. He is also extreemely knowledgeable about immigration law. I would not hesitate to hire him."
"I endorse this lawyer. I've had the pleasure of seeing Zachary in immigration court several times. He is always prepared, knows the law, and often leaves the courthouse with good outcomes for the client. I remember watching him in court once representing a detained client in a bond hearing before a tough immigration judge. Zachary artfully told a compelling story weaving together statutes and caselaw and the client's factual situation. In that particular case, Zachary got his client released and I still remember the applause and sighs of relief from the client's family. That does not happen in immigration court too often."
"Having worked with Zack for several years, I would not hesitate to recommend him as an immigration attorney. Zack is a bright, hard-working attorney who also cares about his clients. I regularly consult with Zack on immigration cases and highly-respect his legal opinion. He is a skilled attorney who is honest and forthright with clients.

Zach’s leadership skills have been monumental to my growth and development as a new attorney. Zach is patient and always willing to share his wisdom and experiences without hesitation. Zach is one of the hardest working individuals I have ever met and he will undoubtedly be successful in all that he does. Clients should consider themselves lucky to be represented by someone like Zach."

"Zachary Kohn is a fine lawyer with an outstanding academic pedigree who is destined for great accomplishments as an attorney. Mr. Kohn could have pursued any career and would have become a star. Luckily for the legal profession, and for the members of our community in need of legal services, Mr. Kohn chose the practice of law as his career. Within the legal profession, Mr. Kohn could have chosen any area of concentration and would have been successful. Given an unlimited range of choices, Mr. Kohn chose to pursue immigration law. Mr. Kohn chose to practice immigration law because he is a first generation American who appreciates the importance of being able to pursue the dream of American Citizenship, if not the potential consequences of being told that the American Dream is out of reach. For these reasons, I believe that Mr. Kohn will "go the extra mile" within the bounds of the law to represent clients in need of the best possible representation in"
