Lippes Mathias is pleased to congratulate partner Andrew M. Wilson, chair of the firm’s DEI committee and co-leader of the firm’s immigration practice team, on receiving the community service award at the Minority Bar Foundation’s 40th Annual Dinner & Awards Ceremony. Wilson was one of six individuals to be honored for significantly contributing to the Minority Bar Foundation’s mission, playing pivotal roles in advancing diversity and inclusion within the legal profession. 

Andrew M. Wilson focuses on building long-lasting relationships with clients as a trusted advisor as opposed to simply completing specific transactions and filings. He represents companies, major league sports teams and individuals in all areas of immigration law, including non-immigrant and immigrant employment-based immigration matters. This includes preparing case-specific strategies to address both short and long-term objectives. Wilson has extensive experience with challenging H-1B, NAFTA/USMCA and O-1 extraordinary ability cases. He is often called upon by other AILA immigration attorneys to help with difficult NAFTA/USMCA matters. Wilson also handles all green card matters including EB-1, EB-2 and PERM labor certification filings. In addition, he represents individuals and families with family-based immigration filings, as well as waivers for admissibility issues.
