Free Consultations Under NYC Phase 2 Reopening

June 22, 2020 by Matthew

Today, NYC entered into phase 2 of reopening.  Under phase 2, lawyers can now meet with clients in their office.

I have resumed meeting with clients and making appointments for free consultations.

I only meet with people in my office by appointment.

I will be wearing a mask during all appointments and anyone that wishes to meet with me must also wear a mask.

All consultations are screened on the phone before scheduling an appointment. Please be prepared to discuss your case before calling.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Things Clients Should Know, Updates About Me

Free Consultation by Phone

June 11, 2020 by Matthew

Lawyers are not yet permitted to hold in-office meetings with clients under New York City’s Phase One of Reopening. In compliance with the law, I am not scheduling in-person consultations in my office at this time.  I will resume consultations in my office when it is safe and permitted by law.

If someone is looking to hire an immigration lawyer, I am more than happy to speak to you over the phone. While it is not ideal, many of the services that I provide can be done over the phone and via e-mail. Since the quarantine has begun, I have prepared immigration forms for clients, such as naturalization applications, without actually meeting with them in person.

Things Clients Should Know, Updates About Me

Free the ICE Detainees!

March 24, 2020 by Matthew

When I was in law school, I went to a job fair where I met the managing attorney of the New York City Office of Prisoners Legal Services of New York. He told me that a correctional officer had just died because he contracted tuberculosis from an inmate. It blew my mind that something that happened in prison could impact the outside world. I ended up doing an internship there and volunteering there after law school. The COVID-19 pandemic reminded me of the CO who died of tuberculosis. ICE MUST RELEASE ALL DETAINEES. This is not just for their safety, but the safety of the staff at the detention facilities. If there is an outbreak of COVID-19 at an ICE detention facility, there will be mass infections. Not only will the detainees be infected, but the staff as well. The staff will then take it home to their families and so on . . . Moreover, the Government will be responsible for the health care of any detainee infected with COVID-19. RELEASE ALL ICE DETAINEES. Let them post bond. Put them on ankle bracelets. Don’t keep them detained where they will be susceptible to a COVID-19 outbreak.
