In this webinar we bring to you three successful immigration attorneys in the employment-based immigration space, who have diverse practices and backgrounds. The panelists will discuss their specific practice, current challenges, and how they got to where they are today.

The purpose of this webinar is to build community and relationships among our NAPABA immigration committee members and to recognize and highlight their successes. We hope this webinar will provide an introduction. All three panelists will be at the 2019 NAPABA Convention in Austin, Texas in November for a follow-up dialogue over chips and guacamole.
