Recently, Martin was given the opportunity to visit a
completed EB-5 Regional Center project that he helped develop
and receive USCIS approval. It was a fulfilling experience to see
the result of all his hard work, “I saw a room full of young people
in front of computer screens. Getting to walk around and seeing
the real live job creation was deeply satisfying. I was a part of
making those jobs for the kids sitting at those computers.”
An educator in the immigration community, Martin wrote
and regularly updates his publication Professionals: A Matter
of Degree, a treatise on employment-based green cards. Ira
Kurzban, fellow Top 25 EB-5 Attorney and author of the
most widely used single-volume immigration source in the
United States, says that Martin’s publication “incorporates
every significant aspect of immigration law pertaining to
business professionals.”
It is Martin’s extensive knowledge and expertise in all of
immigration law which makes him an authority in the field
and one of the most effective EB-5 attorneys in the business.
