From 1991 to 1996, I worked for a law firm in Akron. In May 1996, I started my own practice. In 2007, I moved to my own office in Akron, and am now in Cuyahoga Falls. Along the way, I have been privileged to represent a diverse and wonderful group of clients, ranging from individual students to huge multi-billion dollar corporations and their employees. Thanks to my growing practice, I have my very own dedicated staff, who deserve much credit for getting your cases processed quickly, efficiently, and accurately!
I pride myself in being approachable and responsive to clients. You will also find Q & A on a variety of topics. After you have gone through my website, if you do not find what you are looking for, please send me an e-mail through the ‘Contact Us’ page. I will do my best to update my website with an article or information that may be of interest to you.
I am also a private pilot, and like any good pilot, I want to study my maps, chart my course, and anticipate alternatives if bad weather approaches. Flying is like immigration – we have to check our legal theory, file the right applications and deal with unforeseen problems! My goal is to get you – my immigration passenger – to your destination safely and quickly! I hope that together we have a great flight. Buckle up and let’s go!
