I am a Partner at a boutique immigration law firm located in New York, NY. I am currently admitted to practice in the States of New York and New Jersey, but have represented clients in immigration matters throughout United States and internationally. Working for a boutique law firm for over a fifteen years has allowed me to gain valuable experience working with a diverse clientele, managing a substantial and varied caseload, supervising the work of associate attorneys, paralegals, and legal assistants, and developing an expansive knowledge of immigration laws and procedures. This experience allows me to successfully represent clients before U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, U.S. Embassies and Consulates, Immigration Courts, the Board of Immigration Appeals, the Administrative Appeals Office, and U.S. Courts of Appeals.. I represent clients in a variety of immigration matters from family-based and employment-based adjustment of status applications to complex immigration issues such as appeals to the Board of Immigration Appeals and the Administrative Appeals and the Administrative Appeals Office, motions to reconsider and/or reopen, cases involving criminal aliens, waivers of grounds of inadmissibility, and federal court actions seeking review of agency decisions. I defend individuals in removal proceedings before the Executive Office for Immigration Review. I also frequently represent individuals in a range of interviews and appearance before U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services in connection with asylum applications, nonimmigrant visas, applications for lawful permanent residence, and naturalization.. I strive for excellence in all that I undertake. I wholeheartedly invest myself into the representation of my clients from treating them with respect, dignity, and compassion to outstanding legal services. I aspire to deliver successful results to my clients allowing them to achieve their immigration goals.

George Terezakis

Firm: The Terezakis Law Firm

170 Old Country Rd , Mineola , New York 11501

Practice Areas: Immigration

I have been a practicing trial lawyer for twenty-five years now. I have chosen to limit my practice, almost exclusively, to criminal and immigration related matters. Many of my clients are long term lawful permanent residents who are trying to avoid deportation-removal due to a criminal conviction. I also defend many non-citizens facing criminal charges in the New York State Courts in Nassau, Suffolk and Queens Counties.. Because I am well versed in immigration law, I can advise my client of the direct immigration consequences of a proposed plea bargain. It is also important for them to know when they will need to go to trial if they wish to try to avoid being deported. Unfortunately, non-citizens often plead guilty without fully understanding how their guilty plea will impact them, for example, not only can certain convictions result in deportation-removal, but the conviction may also subject the person to indefinite immigration detention while their proceedings are pending. I frequently lecture on this area of the law at continuing legal education seminars, and other lawyers routinely contact me to discuss strategies for handling these difficult types of cases.. While most of my cases involve defense at the trial level, before the U.S. Immigration Courts, and New York State Criminal Courts, I also handle appeals to the Board of Immigration Appeals, petitions for review before the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals, and Federal habeas corpus proceedings - all related to deportation-removal issues. Some of the cases I have litigated have resulted in favorable decisions which have not only helped my clients, but have also benefited other, similarly situated, individuals.. Sometimes the only way a long term resident of the U.S. can avoid deportation-removal, is to vacate or reopen the underlying conviction which has caused them to be placed in proceedings. We have been able to do this for many of our clients, especially in cases where the client pled guilty to a charge without having been told by their attorney that their guilty plea would render them deportable-removable.. I am proud to say that I was active in the Central American human rights movement during the 1980's and early 1990's, and during that time I did volunteer work with one of the leading human rights groups in El Salvador. As a result of that work, I learned Spanish, and today many of my clients are from that part of the world. The best part of the work I do is helping people through difficult times, finding them a "second chance", and keeping families together.

Daniel Green

Firm: Office of Daniel Green

Po Box 3238 , Kingston , New York 12402

Practice Areas: Immigration

Combining individual attention with flat fees for many types of immigration matters.. I concentrate on removal defense, appeals to the Board of Immigration Appeals, immigration related criminal defense, family immigration, adjustment of status, domestic and overseas immigrant waivers, domestic and overseas nonimmigrant waivers, asylum and related forms of relief (witholding of removal, deferral of removal, relief under the U.N. Convention Against Torture, and other international conventions), VAWA benefits, U nonimigrant status, administrative appeals to the AAO (Administrative Appeals Office) criminal immigration issues in consultation with criminal defense attorneys, criminal removal, detention issues, advocacy for prosecutorial discretion, and other matters before ICE(Immigration and Customs Enforcement) and CBP (Customs and Border Protection).. I can conduct consultations in person, by phone, by email/chat, or via skype.. I can conduct client preparation and interviews in Spanish.. In addition to being licensed in NY, I am admitted to practice before the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of NY and the Second Circuit Court of Appeals.. Unlike many other immigration attorneys, I do not delegate any work to anyone.. If you call my office, I will answer the phone. I will be the one responding to your emails and calling you back.. If anyone does work for you, from filling out a form to assembling your documents, it will be me. My rates may be higher than some other immigration attorneys, but the time I devote to my clients is of greater quality and quantity than of high volume caseload firms.. As a member of AILA and a consistent participant in its online community, I can draw on the collective experience of thousands of other immigration attorneys as well as sharing my perspectives with my colleagues.. I am not in the business of providing my clients with sugar coated promises of favorable outcomes and assurances that there is nothing to be worried about. I let my clients know exactly where they stand and possible outcomes.. I spend much of my time listening to my clients. Aside from knowing the law, an attorney needs to know exactly what is going on with his/her clients. And that's what I do.
