when I came out of law school I went to
00:06
work for my father in a small local real
00:10
estate practice and I learned an awful
00:12
lot from my father he was a great mentor
00:15
a great teacher and a great friend my
00:18
father taught me that what clients want
00:21
is complete ethical behavior by their
00:24
lawyer complete honesty and they want
00:27
communication and that has served me
00:30
well over the past twenty nine years as
00:33
I started my own immigration law law
00:35
practice over the past twenty nine years
00:42
I’ve held several leadership positions
00:44
in the immigration bar both on a local
00:47

01:02

01:04
of connections that have served my
01:06
clients very well over the past twenty
01:09
nine years I’ve become friends with
