Mr. Wilson, a partner at Lippes Mathias LLP and co-leader of the firm's Immigration Practice Team, focuses on building long-lasting relationships with clients as a trusted advisor as opposed to simply completing specific transactions and filings. He represents companies, major league sports teams and individuals in all areas of immigration law, including non-immigrant and immigrant employment-based immigration matters. This includes preparing case-specific strategies to address both short and long-term objectives. Mr. Wilson has extensive experience with challenging H-1B, NAFTA/USMCA and O-1 extraordinary ability cases. He is often called upon by other AILA immigration attorneys to help with difficult NAFTA/USMCA matters. Mr. Wilson also handles all green card matters including EB-1, EB-2 and PERM labor certification filings. In addition, he represents individuals and families with family-based immigration filings, as well as waivers for admissibility issues.
