About the Firm

Paul Gormley brings over 27 years of U.S. Government experience as both a Justice Department lawyer and Foreign Service Officer, giving him a unique insider's perspective on how the federal government and its immigration system really works. As a consular officer in Beijing, he personally adjudicated over 20,000 visas, including skilled worker visas (H1B, L, O, P, R), student visas (F), and exchange program visas (J).

As a first-generation American, Paul understands your hopes and dreams on a personal level. Many clients want to reunite with family, others seek to bring their talents to strengthen the U.S. economy, and some are escaping persecution or conflict. Everyone's story is different, and Paul's commitment is to help you understand your options and stand alongside you through every step of the process.

Paul came to the U.S. as a teenager and was the first in his family to graduate from high school, college, and then law school. He has experienced the American dream, and now it's his turn to help you do the same.

Paul is a member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA). In addition to English and legalese, in which he is fluent, he also speaks French and Mandarin Chinese.
