Why I Built VisaLaws

My family’s story in America begins in 1635.

John Middlebrooks arrived from the Netherlands and helped establish one of the earliest Dutch settlements in New England - before New York was even New York. That legacy has carried through generations of public service.

My parents served in the U.S. Marine Corps. My father is a Sergeant Major. My brother and sister also serve. My grandfather fought in Vietnam. Other members of my family have and still serve as county commissioners and federal judges.

It's a long line of responsibility and service to this country.

VisaLaws was born out of that same drive to serve. I built it for people navigating one of the most difficult systems in America - immigration law.

Part of the drive behind this platform is personal. The woman I love came to this country from Ukraine. She did it on her own - working hard, building her life, never asking for shortcuts. Her journey inspired me to build something meaningful for people like her - and for anyone trying to find a future here.

VisaLaws connects people with qualified immigration lawyers based on location, language, or legal need. No call centers. No sales traps. Just clarity, choice, and direct access to legal support.

One case at a time, we are connecting the world. Showing the beauty of our accepted diversity. Showing the world that we choose to accept and see each other through the kindness and love of the heart. That's all that is real. That's all that matters.
