Tim’s two-decade career in immigration law is enriched by his experience working for clients across a wide range of industries. While he supports clients primarily in the pharmaceutical, chemical, medical engineering, academic and high-end manufacturing industries, he has represented clients from nearly every sector, from individual professional athletes to multinational conglomerates. This variety of experience has honed his understanding of the immigration journey and the common challenges it poses to every client.
It’s a foundation that enables him to provide solutions that navigate the immigration process effectively and efficiently, while still addressing his clients’ signature preferences and culture. He’s built every flavor of program, from bare-bones, by-the-book approaches that minimize cost, to white-glove, bespoke programs that provide extra levels of attention and support.
When necessary, Tim designs additional program elements that address a client’s unique challenges; for example, he has created information clearing houses that gather data on large immigrant workforces and, by analyzing employee information from the individual worker to the corporate division, help clients understand and reduce costs. He has helped third-party service providers adopt this program, providing additional value to his clients.
