Gwendolyn Robosson, Fragomen Partner and member of the firm’s Executive Committee, has been recognized by the New Jersey Law Journal (NJLJ) in its inaugural list of New Jersey Trailblazers.
The list honors those legal professionals who have made significant marks on practices, policies and technological advancements in their practice area.
The NJLJ featured a profile of Robosson, which highlights her pioneer spirit and experience counseling clients on promoting and implementing a global immigration approach. “I worked with a trailblazing client, and I had the benefit of supporting a program design to realize their objectives,” Robosson said. “There was push back to having an enterprise wide immigration program that was managed at a headquarters level. But that approach allows for knowing the entire population of a client and engaging in scenario planning, risk assessment, compliance and all of the aspects of ensuring that the needs of the worldwide population are being managed.”
