Happy Holidays and Happy 15th Anniversary to the Professor!
While I have been practicing immigration law since 1989, it was 15 years ago – November 26, 1994 that I began the bold journey of starting my own business. I still remember moving into my new office the day after Thanksgiving, how nervous I was starting my own practice and wondering if I could pay the mortgage. Along the journey, I married a wonderful woman and had two great kids — one who arriving on earth on my 5th anniversary in business– who all continue to be my professors, teaching me more about life and love every day. Thank you so much to my clients for making this happen!
On this wonderful occasion, I would like to express my gratitude to, of course my wife for her unflagging support through good times and hard times. I would also to those who have mentored, guided and inspired me along the way. These people include, but are not limited to Attorney Richard Trais, Attorney Ronald Walker, Attorney Ken Geman, Attorney Arthur Carr III and my business coach, the inestimable Phyllis Campagna. I am thankful too for my new friends in our new Los Angeles office, especially Richard Teitel and JW Reed Jr. for helping me and my family with our own emigration to the beautiful shores of LA.
Most of all I would like to thank my clients who inspire me every day and every year to continue in this most wonderful profession of being a US immigration lawyer. I am grateful that I have been able to help you in some way and continually awed by your success in this beautiful country that has become home. It has been an added blessing that so many of you have become friends.
Happy Holidays to all of you and your families from my family and I!
