- Biography
Excellent immigration and criminal defense representation for reasonable flat fees. I am a solo practitioner and work directly with all my clients. Please contact me for a free case evaluation.
In my immigration practice I represent clients from all over Michigan, the country and the world with a particular focus on complex family-based immigration law including immigrant visa petitions, K1 fiance visas, naturalization and citizenship, adjustment of status and waivers of inadmissibility. I also specialize in certain classes of non-immigrant visas including TN, E1/E2, H1B and O1 visas.
My criminal defense practice is focused on representing defendants in misdemeanor and felony cases pending in Jackson and Washtenaw counties. I have experience handling a wide variety of criminal matters including: drunk driving, drug possession offenses, home invasion, assaultive crimes, fraud and theft, resisting and obstructing and narcotics sales/distribution.
