The second webinar in Garfinkel Immigration Law Firm’s “Immigration Solutions for Healthcare Workers” series will be held on Wednesday, June 7, from noon – 1 p.m.
The webinar will be hosted by Partners Meredith W. Barnette and Colleen F. Molner and is entitled “Settling in the U.S.:” Healthcare Worker Green Cards, Part 1 — Physician National Interest Waivers. The Partners’ presentation will discuss long-term strategies for healthcare workers to be employed in the U.S. on a permanent, full-time basis and is intended for physicians, managers and employers in the healthcare industry.
“Our Healthcare Green Card series will be broken up into two parts,” Molner said. “Many physicians are eligible to bypass what is typically the longest and most costly step of the green card process, known as the PERM Labor Certification step, by filing a Physician National Interest Waiver, which is the focus of Part 1.”
Barnette and Molner have practiced immigration law for almost 30 years, combined, and both have extensive experience leveraging creative approaches to provide insight and legal advice to healthcare professionals.
Molner is certified as a Specialist in Immigration Law by the North Carolina State Bar, the highest level of specialization attainable in the state, and has previously been recognized by Business North Carolina (BNC) Legal Elite, Who’s Who Legal as well as Super Lawyers.
Barnette regularly prepares nonimmigrant and immigrant visa petitions and manages Garfinkel’s EB-5 practice. She has recently been honored by The Best Lawyers in America© and for her pro bono work.
