MINNEAPOLIS, January 17, 2023 – Fragomen, the world’s leading provider of immigration services, welcomes new Partner Sarah Peterson who will serve as head of the firm’s new office in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

“The opening of the Minneapolis office further extends Fragomen’s strong U.S. presence into the epicenter of healthcare and health innovation, as well as allowing for continued collaboration with many national and international companies headquartered in the Twin Cities area,” said Lance Kaplan, Fragomen’s Co-Chair. “We’re excited to welcome Sarah and her team to the firm and know that our clients will benefit tremendously from her experience and insight into these key industries.”

Peterson owned her own boutique immigration firm for eight years prior to joining Fragomen, along with an associate and legal staff. She focuses on employment-based immigration helping companies in high-tech, engineering, medical and higher education retain the most competitive candidates from around the world and places highly trained physicians in both rural and urban underserved areas around the country.

“After eight years of building my own firm, I could not be more excited to take my practice to the next level at Fragomen, offering my clients an efficient, large-scale global platform, cutting-edge technology and a dedicated government strategies team to help them meet their immigration and mobility objectives,” said Peterson.
