Scott Malyk - Newark Immigration Lawyer Reviews & Ratings

Immigration worksite enforcement by federal authorities has ramped up to unprecedented levels and shows no signs of abating. Employer’s must therefore focus on Form I-9 compliance.  The substantial increase in the number of I-9 audits and related arrests by U.S. Immigration and Custom’s Enforcement (ICE), coupled with the doubling of civil penalties, makes this a looming threat to small businesses and larger corporations alike. ICE has a stated goal of doubling the number of Notices of Inspection (NOI) served on employers from 2,281 year to date to 5,000 by September 30, 2018.  Employer arrests (through the I-9 audit process) are up 91% year-over-year and administrative (alien) arrests are up 255% over the same period. Timing, experience and knowledge in defending your business and its principals in this area is critical to protect your business against potential liability.   We are deeply experienced in this area and in all business immigration matters.. In addition to our business practice, we also possess extensive experience representing individuals of extraordinary ability in the O-1 and EB-1 (greencard) context, in diverse fields including all facets of the performing arts (dancers, actors, painters and sculptors, to name a few) to songwriters, composers, sound engineers, music managers, and music agents as well as scientists, authors, inspirational speakers, celebrity chefs, professional athletes and a variety of business people. We also have extensive experience working with museums, festivals, music labels, management agencies, recording studios and concert organizers.
