On Immigration Politics

As a law firm dedicated to providing exemplary professional services, Nichols & Eberth, PC does not make it a point to weigh in on the side of purely political issues. Such conversations are more appropriate among friends and colleagues and are inappropriate in most circumstances. With that said, as a provider of immigration services, it is incumbent upon us to correct the mischaracterizations on immigration that is en vogue today. One of the chief purveyors of the "blame everything on the immigrants" mantra is Michelle Malkin. Many may know Mrs. Malkin from her frequent appearances on Fox News and her now famous fight with Geraldo (as seen below). However, Mrs. Malkin also peddles her vitriolic sentiments in a immigration-centric spin-off of her widely-read blog. Going forward, Nichols & Eberth, PC will take articles of hers of interest and provide a necessary rebuttal or alternative perspective on the topic. Unlike many firms that practice immigration law, Nichols & Eberth, PC does not always agree with the positions espoused by the American Immigration Lawyers Association, the chief professional organization for immigration attorneys. However in the interest of full disclosure, we do have attorneys who are members of AILA. Immigration is far too complex to have a either/or mentality on. As always, we welcome your feedback and your thoughts.
