Fiancee Attorney (K1 Visas)

Out of all of his immigration law cases, the one in which he takes the most personal pride is one that resulted in the approval of a petition for his current wife to emigrate to the United States from her native country of the Dominican Republic in 2008. He acted as her fiancee lawyer and they now currently make their home in Marlton, New Jersey where they are virtually inseparable when not working. They enjoy spending time helping each other to become bi-lingual in English and Spanish.

“As I look back over the 31 year period of my career, I take humble pride in the knowledge that I have been fortunate to enjoy such a rich and diverse background as a public servant and a private advocate, serving the needs of juveniles and adults, helping provide citizens with bankruptcy relief, representing plaintiffs and defendants in civil actions ranging from personal injury to contractual disputes- in both the state and federal courts of New Jersey and Pennsylvania.” Marlton Attorney– Paul Ferrell, Jr.
