Why Choose Wildes & Weinberg?
Immigration law is deeply personal. Whether you're trying to stay in the United States, bring family members here, or protect your right to remain after an order of removal, the stakes couldn't be higher. Wildes & Weinberg was founded in 1960 by Leon Wildes — the attorney who famously won the right for John Lennon to remain in the United States — and has since grown into arguably the most prominent exclusively immigration law firm in the country. With 11 attorneys all focused solely on immigration and nationality law, and decades of experience handling everything from O-1 and EB-1 visas to deportation defense, this Midtown Manhattan firm brings depth that generalist firms simply cannot match. Recent clients in 2026 describe consistently choosing the right team.

What Clients Say
"My employer had previously used a different firm and the H-1B was denied. We switched to Wildes & Weinberg and they got it approved within 2 months. The difference in expertise is night and day."
"I had an order of removal hanging over me for years and lived in fear every day. Michael Wildes' team filed a motion to reopen and we won. I am still here with my family because of them."
"As an artist trying to get my O-1 visa, I was overwhelmed by the paperwork. Wildes & Weinberg knew exactly what evidence to gather and how to present it. Approved first try. Outstanding."
