  • October 2011 Meeting Announcement

    Immigration Law 101 by George Abbes

    Thursday, October 27, 2011 at 5:15 p.m. at Original Mike’s

    I am sure that many of you know of George’s great abilities as an attorney – both in the areas of criminal and immigration law. George is a fantastic resource to me and other members of our association. He helps us navigate the murky waters surrounding Padilla and the immigration consequences that often face our clients. Oh those collateral consequences.

    George will be teaching us the nuts and bolts of immigration law as it applies to our criminal defense practices. This is a must attend meeting for all.

    I encourage everyone to attend. See you there!!
