Managing Partner Michael Wildes is pleased to announce that the firm has secured lawful permanent residence for our client, David E., whose case was caught up in the immigration court system for close to four years.
Our client David came to us after spending more than three years stuck in the immigration court morass with another attorney. His individual hearing wasn’t scheduled to occur for over a year, and he thought it might get pushed off again, which created a lot of problems for him and his wife. More than anything, they wanted some finality, so that they could plan their lives.
Wildes & Weinberg took over the case and immediately got to work. We got Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s attorney to agree to recommend David’s case be approved. We took that commitment to the judge and asked him to push up our client’s individual hearing, which would be a mere formality to approve his green card case. David came to us in early 2022 after several years of frustration, and before the end of May his case was approved and him and his wife were elated.
Our results were due to our dedication, persistence, competence, and reputation. When ICE and the judge saw what we had, they knew this was an easy case.
Wildes & Weinberg continues to help our clients not just get where they’re going, but fast. For immigrants frustrated with delays, we know how to get things done, whether that’s lawsuits, motions, or cutting red tape through our knowledge of the system.
