About Joseph Lavetsky, Esq

I am a New York born and raised attorney practicing immigration law exclusively since 2013. I was awarded a Bachelor of Arts Degree in History and Political Science from the State University of New York, Buffalo and a Juris Doctorate from Emory University Law School in Atlanta, GA, with a focus on immigration law and international law.

Upon passing the New York State Bar Exam in 2012, I began working at a busy immigration legal services organization, where I successfully assisted hundreds of New Yorkers in applying for naturalization, adjusting their status to green card holders, and sponsoring their family members back home to come to the U.S. I then moved with my family to the Hudson Valley of New York (Dutchess County) and started Beacon Immigration PLLC.

I greatly enjoy the practice of immigration law and helping people realize their dreams. Many of the most important people in my life are immigrants. My wife (whose green card I sponsored) and children are citizens of the Dominican Republic, which we visit at least once per year.

When I’m not busy working to help clients, I enjoy hiking the beautiful trails and mountains of the Hudson Valley, visiting new countries, trying new foods, reading, and spending time with my family.
