Pearl Law Group Expands Global Immigration Practice

Pearl's expanding practice reflects continued importance of international assignments and placement of global talent.

2013-01-08

SAN FRANCISCO, CA, January 08, 2013 (Press-News.org) Pearl Law Group recently welcomed Daniel Park as its new Global Operations Manager, a reflection of the growing demand for immigration legal services related to international employee assignments and placement of global talent. While companies continue to grow their operations overseas in both traditional business centers and emerging markets, national immigration policies and regulations don't always work in favor of business, and navigating visa and work permit processes and timelines can be a huge challenge for employers who need teams in place yesterday.

"From frequent global business travelers, to short-, long- and back-to-back assignments across the world - Daniel's seen it all," says firm Partner, Sameer Khedekar, who oversees the growing global immigration practice. Founded in 1995 to work primarily with employers bringing talent to the United States, Pearl Law Group today has dozens of professionals devoted to helping client companies deploy their best and brightest all over in the world, and is one of the largest global immigration practices in the country. Daniel joins practice managers Kristy Pagel-Stumpp and Said Boskovic, and he will manage the day-to-day delivery of services to some of the Bay Area's leading employers.
