At J.W. Hanks Law, I provide skilled representation regarding a broad range of immigration, citizenship, and visa issues for individuals, employers, spouses, and families across the nation. I provide expert representation with a wide range of legal issues, including:

• Marriage, fiancé, family, work, and entertainer visas

• Citizenship and naturalization

• Removal and deportation defense
• Criminal conviction consequences and waivers
• Crime victim visas

I am an attorney and a business professional with a military work ethic and commitment. After six years in the United States Army National Guard, I studied law at the University of Nebraska College of Law and the Thomas M. Cooley Law School. Additionally, I have a MBA from Leeds University Business School in Leeds, United Kingdom. I have had the opportunity to work and travel in many parts of the world. Learning from people of different parts of the United States as well as the world, I have tried to bring those different points of view into my life and work.  I moved to the New England area after a lifetime of living West of the Mississippi and in July 2017, I launched J.W. Hanks Law.
