  • About Christopher


    I’m a paralegal pursuing a career in law.

    As an immigration paralegal with Fragomen, Del Rey, Bernsen & Loewy, LLP, I spend most of my time analyzing and translating complex evidentiary documentation into compelling, concise arguments in order to demonstrate that our clients satisfy the legal requirements for employment-based visa classifications or other U.S. immigration benefits they seek.
