    Neil focuses his practice on all aspects of immigration law including family immigration, fiancé visas, H-1B, O-1, R-1 and P-1 visas. Neil has focused much of his time preparing PERM and national interest waivers cases for his clients which include cancer and heart researchers, architects, bankers, and world class athletes. Neil takes great pride in handling complex family based appeals, where hope of family unification seems bleak

    23 years

He is a member of the American Lawyer Association and Cincinnati Bar Association. He has served on the Board of Trustees of the International Visitors Council of Cincinnati, and the Alumni Board of his Alma Mater, The Cincinnati Country Day School. Neil has published articles and has lectured at local College and Universities regarding Immigration Law.

Neil graduated from Hobart College in Geneva, New York in 1997 where he graduated with a double major in political science and history. He was an active member of the Sigma Chi fraternity and a student representative on Hobart College's student governing committee.

In 2000, Neil gradated from the Capital University Law School, in Columbus Ohio. While attending school in Columbus, Ohio, Neil’s academic success enabled him to graduate with the honor, the Order of the Curia. While working in law school, Neil interned with Justice Paul E. Pfeifer, Supreme Court of Ohio where he gained invaluable experience in the judicial system.

Upon graduating law school and passing the bar, Neil took what was then thought to be a temporary position with his father at Richard I. Fleischer & Associates. However, due to a great father/son relationship and having an indispensable mentor, Neil decided to stay and help the law firm grow into the thriving Fleischer Law Firm, LLC. With his father, he became a member of Cohen, Todd, Kite & Stanford, LLC to develop an immigration practice there.

Neil has been married to his wife,  Liz for over 5 years and they just welcomed their first child. They have an "obedient" Maltese named Coco. Neil is an avid sports fan; as a former athlete and state champion pitcher on his Cincinnati Country Day baseball team, Neil now realizes that his "glory days" are over but enjoys playing softball with his friends, and competing nationally in fantasy baseball and football.

Best Attorney
Neil Fleisher's help was monumental in getting my green card processed. He is very thorough and provided us with an exhaustive list for compiling all the necessary paperwork needed for our application. He checked in with us at each step, ensured that we had all the required documents, and helped us prepare for the interview. He is very professional, and we recommend getting his services. I would highly recommend Neil Fleisher if you’re looking for an immigration lawyer’s services.

Very professional law firm. They take the time to explain the procedures to you clearly and always answer questions and concerns promptly. Mr Fleischer guided us through the immigrant visa process, which went very smoothly. He is obviously very knowledgeable and cares about his clients. We highly recommend this law firm.

Forever Fleischer!
I have been a client of Neil's since 2001 and he has assisted in a few different cases. Most recently (Dec 2020) was my husband's citizenship interview, he passed!! I can tell you that Neil is the most honest and trustworthy lawyer I have ever worked with and heard of. I know quite a few Hispanic people and have heard of stories where they are paying thousands of dollars to an immigration attorney and not getting anywhere. I always recommend Neil and associates to anyone I speak to. He will definitely tell you straight out what can and can't be done and will not take you down a long road to try to charge you for things he knows will not happen. He knows the laws well and goes out of his way to make sure you understand the process. Always very professional and quick to respond. We are forever grateful for how much he has and will continue to help our family.

Fantastic Help Through Green Card Process
Cannot recommend Neil high enough. I came to The Fleischer Law Firm about a year ago very nervous and scared about how the green card process and my immigration matter. Throughout the process, Neil clearly explained the process to me and my husband answered any questions that we had, and promptly responded to any request. Needless to say even during Covid our case moved extremely fast. Thank you, Neil, for being our guide throughout this journey.

Great Guide Throughout The Citizenship Process
Cannot recommend Neil and The Fleischer Law Firm high enough. 3.5 years ago, I came to Neil very nervous, confused, and uninformed about how my future wife and I were going to navigate her green card and citizenship process. Throughout the process, Neil clearly explained the process, answered any questions that we had, and promptly responded to any request. My wife has now been recommended for citizenship and will take her oath soon. Thank you, Neil, for being our guide throughout this journey.

The ONLY immigration Lawyer you will ever need!!!!!!
Neil was hired by the company I work for to process my permanent residency case and he has been a PURE blessing. He is diligent, thorough, professional, well-informed and goes above and beyond to deliver the best outcome for you. I always felt I was in excellent hands throughout the process. Neil made every attempt to make an overwhelming and sometimes scary process seem like a breeze. His responses are prompt and attention to detail outstanding. I would VERY HIGHLY recommend Neil.
