Employers in Lake George and across the Adirondacks rely on the federal J-1 visa program to fill out their summer workforces. While restrictions on businesses and travel are easing, COVID-19 continues to cause some uncertainties with the program. Partner L.J. D’Arrigo, co-leader of our Immigration Practice Group, spoke to reporter Robin Cooper of the Albany Business Review to explain the implications.

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.
