michael wildes’ representation of shyne profiled

Managing Partner Michael Wildes’ representation of rapper Shyne was recently profiled in Time.com’s Global Spin blog.

Shyne was deported from the U.S. following the infamous 2009 Club New York shooting, which also involved Puff Daddy and Jennifer Lopez. 


Now residing in Israel, he has embraced Orthodox Judaism (his mother is an Ethiopian Jew), and is is launching a campaign to be allowed back into the United States.

“He has an uphill battle” says Michael Wildes. Conviction on an aggravated felony effectively bars an alien for life. But rare exceptions are made for “outstanding talents” who demonstrate the good they can do outweighs the bad they’ve done.
