Harris Beach PLLC is expanding its statewide immigration practice with the integration of the practice of Jason Abrams. Jason is joining Harris Beach as partner from a three-generation family immigration law firm serving clients in the New York Tri-State area.

Jason has 18 years of experience supporting both businesses and families with immigration needs, from recruiting global talent for workforces to finding permanent residence options for trusted caregivers. He represents the largest state power organization in the country, many medium and small businesses, and individuals including chefs, CEOs, musicians, journalists, and entrepreneurs.

His practice includes employment-based and family-based petitions and applications, including H-1B and O-1 nonimmigrant visas and all immigrant petitions, as well as waivers and applications for U.S. citizenship. He provides representation in Immigration Court for adjustment hearings and Cancellation of Removal cases and engages in federal court litigation as a means to resolve both employment- and family-based cases.

Jason is a member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association and active in the New York chapter, Rome District chapter and Indian Subcontinent Interest Group. He provides pro bono services through AILA’s Military Assistance Program and serves as Special Counsel to the New York State Attorney Disciplinary Committee. He is fluent in French and his team is always available to Spanish-speaking clients.

In addition, Jason focuses on the immigration status of au pairs, who are childcare workers admitted to the United States in a cultural exchange. Jason works with host families to obtain National Interest Exceptions allowing their au pairs admission to the country and, later, changes their status to visitor or student, or even adjusts them to permanent resident status.

“The addition of Jason Abrams not only enhances our existing employment-based practice by allowing us to better serve our downstate clients, but also broadens our capabilities in immigration law. Now, in addition to serving organizations, educational institutions and professionals, we also support families in the quest for citizenship,” said L.J. D’Arrigo, co-leader, Harris Beach Immigration Law Practice Group. “Abrams & Abrams has zealously protected the rights of families for 75 years. We are excited to have Jason build on the work that his grandfather started, and he and his father continued, for people and businesses across New York state.”

Our Immigration Law Practice Group includes immigration attorneys that work across New York state in our Albany, Buffalo, Ithaca, Long Island, New York City, Rochester and Syracuse offices. Our immigration lawyers focus on strategies – including immigrant visas for permanent U.S. resident status and temporary visas for foreign nationals – to ensure that employers are able to hire, transfer, and retain the brightest and best non-U.S. talent.
