As co-leader of the firm’s Immigration group, Amy Peck plays a pivotal role in ensuring the group’s attorneys—and the firm—achieve optimal success for employers on any immigration matter. She believes strongly in Jackson Lewis’ collegial culture and sets the tone for a work environment that expects, encourages, and celebrates collaboration among not just the practice group, but others across the firm as well.

Amy loves to dive into complex immigration and compliance issues in the workplace, especially those that intersect employment and immigration law. She approaches client service with the understanding that businesses need practical advice that take a 360-degree view. Amy is especially effective when confronted with a difficult and unique problem to solve for a client. In today’s regulatory environment, Amy is aware that every fact has an impact, and a proactive approach is the best protection.
