Profile

We recognize the field of immigration has never been more controversial.  Nevertheless, employers must balance the need to employ individuals who possess the skill sets required to grow their businesses against a recessionary economy.  Our office, with its foundation in the State of Michigan, is keenly aware of this delicate balance.  We strive to assist employers who, nothwithstanding the economic concerns we face, find the need to employ persons who were not fortunate enough to be born in the U.S. but who nonetheless possess the learning and experience needed to enable a U.S business to grow.  Significantly, our office is  a leader in health care immigration.  We assist hospitals, medical practices and other heatlh related facilities employ the health care workers necessary to meet the demands of our current population.  The physican and nurse shortage is well-documented.  We enable medical employers to use the tool of immigration as partial relief for this shortage.
