My father was admitted to the New York State Bar on December 9, 1959. He worked incredibly hard to get to that point. He first put himself through Syracuse while working three and four jobs, and graduated after two years because got accepted early to New York Law...
This article is not meant to be political. Indeed it’s actually meant to be a call for help. The situation in Afghanistan is awful, and obviously the manner in which the United States left Afghanistan left a lot to be desired. The Biden Administration’s...
“Prosecutorial Discretion”. In my world, these can be two of the most important words to a client with few if any immigration options in the United States. Let me explain. Prosecutorial Discretion (or “PD” for short) is the authority of, in this case, a federal agency...

Happy New Year everyone! What a year 2020 was! An understatement to say the least. I’m happy to see it left behind in the rear view mirror. Along with the fourth (and mercifully the last) year of the Trump Administration, we “welcomed” a once-in-a-lifetime...
I went to bed around 9:30 p.m. on election night. I just knew that the results would not be final that evening, and watching the news through the night was going to do nothing but stress me out (and it was). I was also having this strange sensation of “deja vous all...
In terms of the President’s income taxes, Twitter (and other more mainstream media)[1] has been of course alight with all sorts of buzz as to how much you pay in income taxes relative to the President, how much I pay, and so on. But the one Tweet that did catch my...
