Kim is a client relationship manager for our full-service clients and focuses her practice on immigration and agriculture. In her immigration practice, she handles immigration planning, strategy and processes including nonimmigrant petitions, both employment- and family-based permanent residence applications, expatriation and foreign visa issues. She has developed a strong background in the area of worker verification issues and managed clients through internal and agency Form I-9 audits, USICE compliance investigations and civil and criminal charges.

Kim works with employers of all sizes, including Fortune 500 companies, colleges and universities and international businesses. As a recognized authority, she has provided commentary and analysis on immigration issues to The New York Times, The Washington Post, Business Insider and other publications. She currently serves on the Immigration Editorial Advisory Board for Law360.

In addition, Kim maintains a specialty practice of consultation with agricultural clients and handles various agricultural labor and employment issues such as compliance with migrant labor laws, H-2A worker issues, wage and hour laws, anti-discrimination and COVID-19 related laws.

In partnership with the Michigan Farm Bureau, Kim developed the Agricultural Employment Compliance Guide, an easy-to-use guide for farm employers trying to keep up with sometimes overwhelmingly complex federal and state employment laws. In addition to providing timely updates to both the online and print versions, Kim delivers in-person employment seminars each year to agricultural employers across the state.
