I have been a licensed attorney and counsellor at law for over 26 years. I have extensive legal experience experience in business and commercial law, including 13 years experience as CEO of a $21 million, 180 employee closely held corporation. Starting and managing a growing business afforded me the opportunity to develop a wealth of insight and experience not available to many attorneys, and has enabled me to improve not only certain legal skills, but has also enabled me to provide effective personal service to my clients.
I am an attorney who is also a businessman. I have experience practicing law and owning and managing a medium size corporation. I have experience on public and private corporation Boards of Directors, community organizations and political organizations.
I now focus my legal practice exclusively on immigration and naturalization law and U.S. visas.
