I am the founding member of Sumner Immigration Law. I have focused exclusively on immigration law since starting my practice. I focus on a wide range of employment-based and family-based visas and petitions, including H-1B, L-1, O-1, P, TN, E-1/E-2 and other non-immigrant petitions.
I also manage the permanent residence process, and pride myself on doing so in the most efficient and effective ways possible.

"Emily is an excellent immigration attorney. She is a zealous advocate for her clients and highly respected in the legal community."
"I've referred a few clients to Emily and would not hesitate to do so again in the future. Both described their experience as very positive and Emily as extremely knowledgeable and professional."
"Emily is extremely knowledgeable in the area of immigration. When you meet with her, you realize quickly that she has her finger on the pulse of immigration laws and where these laws may be headed in the future. Immigration is such a highly technical area compared to other legal concentrations and Emily is a lawyer who is not going to overlook the various nuances. As someone who knows her personally, I can say that she is committed to her clients' success. An extremely dedicated and smart attorney."
