Firm named Immigration Provider of the Year; honored for thought leadership

June 14, 2021 - Fragomen, the world’s leading provider of immigration services and member of the Am Law 100 and Am Law Global 100, won two Expatriate Management and Mobility Awards (EMMAs) at the Forum for Expatriate Management’s Americas Summit. The results were announced on June 10, the final day of the summit.

The firm was recognized as Immigration Provider of the Year and celebrated for its thought leadership in the Best Survey or Research Study of the Year category.

The EMMAs honor achievement and success in global mobility during the prior year, highlighting best practices from both corporate programs and supplier services. EMMAs are awarded for work conducted from and within the Americas, EMEA, and APAC regions.

Fragomen, Jr. “In 2020, we worked diligently to provide stellar client service amid the unprecedented disruption of the pandemic. To be singled out by leaders in the global mobility space is always an honor, but it is especially inspiring this year.”

Fragomen’s Worldwide Immigration Trends Report earned the firm a win in the Thought Leadership – Best Survey or Research Study of the Year category. The Report won praise for offering much more than a summary of worldwide immigration statistics.

These honors are the latest in a series of recognitions for Fragomen by FEM, including multiple previous EMMA wins in the Americas, EMEA and APAC regions.

Fragomen has been consistently recognized for excellence in technological and legal innovation, diversity and inclusion, crisis leadership, and staff development. In 2020 alone, the firm received multiple awards and recognition from diverse sources including The American Lawyer, The National Law Journal, The New Jersey Law Journal, Law360, and Who’s Who Legal.
