ANKENY LAW - Key Persons
Job Titles:
- Attorney at Law / Barrister & Solicitor
Jason Ankeny is a Multinational Lawyer licensed to practice law in the United States and Canada. A former U.S. Immigration & Naturalization Service (INS) Officer/U.S. Customs & Border Protection (CBP) Officer, Jason gained more than a decade of experience enforcing U.S. Immigration and Customs laws of the United States.
Jason is also cofounder of The International Au Pair Exchange, a U.S. Department of State designated (private sector) cultural exchange agency engaged in the administration and placement of Au Pairs throughout the United States. As managing member and responsible officer, Jason participated in round-table policy-making at the U.S. Department of State in Washington DC.
With more than 20 years of combined experience in U.S. Immigration/Customs enforcement and international business involving cross border cultural exchange programs, Jason brings unique insights into trade, cross-border, and cultural exchange issues to his law practice. Because he comes from within the agency, Jason doesn't rely on mere speculation as to what the agency requires for a successful outcome for his clients; he knows the agency mandate and expectations and uses his administrative law experience to the benefit of his clients.
Jason was highly recommended as someone who knows U.S. Immigration Law. After a consult, I hired Jason for the purposes of creating my U.S. subsidiary and getting E-2 Investor Visas for myself and 6 of my key workers. Due to critical timing issues, Jason remained available after hours and weekends. All seven visas were issued timely and without issue. See what our clients have said about us
