Virtual Consultation Available
I am intimately familiar with the immigration process from both the client and attorney perspective.
I was born and raised in Montreal, Canada and attended college and law school in the United States pursuant to a student visa. As a young immigration attorney, I married an American citizen processing my own applications for conditional and permanent residence. Subsequently, I became a naturalized United States citizen.
Since 1992, I have assisted thousands of individuals and companies successfully navigate a complex and rather daunting immigration system.
Never forgetting my experience as an immigrant, my primary focus is providing each client with a clear understanding of the immigration steps that lie ahead as well as a realistic assessment of the results that can be achieved. Each client expects and is entitled to an honest evaluation.

Naturalization Process
Paul through emails and many a phone call guided me through the often tedious and confusing naturalization application. His solid advice was key to my success in the naturalization interview itself.
