Bio
Tim brings to the Sekou Clarke Law Group a voracious appetite for immigration law, and a tenacious spirit for litigation.
After obtaining a Bachelor of Science in Finance and Sport Management at the Florida State University. Following graduating from college, Tim set his sights on the law. He attended Florida A&M College of Law where he interned for various firms in Florida in a wide variety of legal issues from personal injury law to intellectual property law.
However, after graduating from law school Tim found a passion for immigration law in New York City, New York. While in New York he worked for a non-profit centered around immigration law before he sprung into private practice with immigration law firms. Through his experience in working for New York City immigration law firms, he worked in multiple areas within immigration law ranging from family immigration to deportation defense. Tim has extensive experience in VAWA self-petitions, complex adjustment of status issues, as well as challenging marriage-based cases.
Further, Tim cultivated extensive immigration litigation experience while trying over fifty (50) individual hearings in Immigration Courts throughout the United States. Tim has developed a reputation for being an aggressive, detail-oriented litigator in asylum proceedings as well as cancellation of removal proceedings. He has successfully handled deportation proceedings that involved criminal issues as well as terrorist-related inadmissibility grounds. Tim looks forward to being a valuable asset to the Sekou Clarke Law Group, where he will bring his Haitian Creole fluency and a burning desire to solve his client's most complex immigration problems.
