Mr. Lerner has traveled all over the United States to help people with their immigration needs.

Mr. Lerner can handle the toughest of deportation cases as well as any appeal, Petition for Review or Motion to Reopen case. Mr. Lerner is frequently present in immigration court, representing individuals in deportation, removal, waiver asylum, withholding of removal and adjustment of status hearings. He has prepared numerous appellate briefs to the Board of Immigration Appeals and other appellate boards at the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services. He has appealed and argued cases in the Circuit Court of Appeals all over the United States.

Mr. Lerner has prepared business visas for individuals from all over the world. Our firm has clients from practically every continent on Earth. His visa experience extends to Treaty Traders, Treaty Investors, Intercompany Transferees, Speciality Occupations, Training programs, and NAFTA visas. He has extensive experience in most all other types of visas issued. In addition to his visa experience, Mr. Lerner has prepared Multinational Manager, National Interest Waiver  and Extraordinary Alien petitions for highly qualified foreigners.

Mr. Lerner's clients are from all over the United States and many countries around the world. Immigration Law is Federal Law. Therefore, a petition or application would be prepared the same in Texas, Florida, or any other State as it would in California. It is more important for you to make sure that you have an expert attorney in Immigration Law prepare your case, rather than a lawyer who happens to be local. There is too much at stake to just give your case to anyone.

Mr. Lerner will fight for you and your family. Since he is married to an immigrant himself, he is committed to helping people from all around the world to come to the United States to realize their dream.

Why does the State Bar Certify Legal Specialists?

  • to help the public identify attorneys who have demonstrated proficiency in specialized fields of law
  • to encourage the maintenance and improving of attorney competence in specialized fields of law

Preparation of immigration petitions and applications is far more than just filling out forms.


What Does it Mean When an Attorney is a "Certified Specialist"?

  • taken and passed a written examination in Immigration and Nationality Law
  • demonstrated a high level of experience in Immigration and Nationality Law
  • fulfilled ongoing education requirements
  • been favorably evaluated by other attorneys and judges familiar with his or her work

A certified specialist knows the overall picture and can discuss different strategies to help you choose the best one for your needs.


What Can a Certified Immigration & Nationality Law Specialist Do for You?

  • advise you, your family or your business so that you do not loose out to faulty immigration document preparation or failure to properly analyze your case
  • identify problems and proactively avoid unnecessary expense, delays and rejection by the INS
  • keep you current with changes in the law which affect legal rights or status and help with past mistakes
  • protect your legal rights if contacted by the INS
  • if apprehended by the BCIS , you need qualified representation in bond and deportation hearings to assure due process and appeal rights
  • As an employer, representation at BCIS audits and investigations assures compliance with verification and hiring requirements and avoids fines or penalties
  • protect your lawful residence status
  • help you obtain U.S. citizenship

There are numerous immigration laws that could result in the denial of this visa if not properly prepared.  If the petition is put together correctly and professionally by a qualified immigration law firm, the chances of approval is greatly increased.
