John Combs

John Combs represents employers in matters relating to their international workforce, assisting with development of coordinated processes for transition of temporary nonimmigrant workers to lawful permanent resident "green card" holders. His practice focuses primarily on the initial permanent labor certification process overseen by the U.S. Department of Labor. He also advises on portability issues when foreign employees change positions and successor-in-interest issues when employers undergo corporate changes.

Prior to joining Constangy, John acquired more than 25 years of business immigration experience at immigration boutique, regional and national law firms. He has directed business immigration programs for a number of multinational companies, particularly in the information technology sector, assisting those employers with development of streamlined processes for preparation of nonimmigrant visa petitions, coordination with the lengthy permanent residency application process, and implementation of employment verification compliance programs.
