Immigration Lawyer Biography

Immigration law sometimes intersects with bankruptcy law or matrimonial law or involves multiple jurisdictions. My licenses in multiple jurisdictions and study in other concentrations in my law practice assist me in helping clients with multijurisdictional problems or multi-issue cases. Immigration law involves not just law, but also timing and creativity.

Marvin Wolf has worked on family immigration cases since 1995 (when it was still called the INS).
