Mikhail Usher, Esq.
Founder of Usher Law Group, P.C. (2013) and the attorney behind Visa4Love. Fifteen-plus years in immigration practice, three bar admissions, and three languages — because family cases are personal, and your lawyer should understand you in the language you think in.
Background
Mikhail Usher came to the law the long way: after earning his B.A. in political science at Brooklyn College, he ran purchasing for an international furniture importer before earning his J.D. at St. Thomas University School of Law in Miami — where his team won a national mock-trial championship. He clerked for a circuit court judge, practiced at an immigration firm, and founded Usher Law Group, P.C. in Brooklyn in 2013.
That first career matters more than it sounds: immigration cases are, at bottom, about documents, logistics, and follow-through across borders — and Mikhail ran international logistics before he ever filed a petition. The firm he built runs the same way: flat fees, clear timelines, no surprises. Under Mikhail Usher's leadership, Usher Law Group has handled thousands of family-based petitions of every kind — marriage and fiancé(e) cases, parents, children, siblings, waivers, and VAWA self-petitions.
Admissions
State bars of New York, New Jersey, and Florida. Federal admissions include the U.S. District Courts for the Eastern, Southern, and Northern Districts of New York, the District of New Jersey, and the Southern and Middle Districts of Florida, and the U.S. Courts of Appeals for the First, Second, and Third Circuits, as well as the Board of Immigration Appeals. He also practices before the immigration courts (EOIR), principally in New York and Miami.
Recognition & memberships
Recognized by Super Lawyers (and previously Super Lawyers Rising Stars). Member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA), the American Bar Association, the New York County Lawyers Association, and the New York and New Jersey State Bar Associations.
Languages
English, Russian and Spanish — consultations and case work available in all three. Firmwide we also work in Uzbek in-house and in any other language through live translation.
What he handles at Visa4Love
Marriage and family green cards (adjustment and consular), K-1 fiancé(e) cases, removal of conditions, and the harder files: waivers, discretion cases under the 2026 rules, and family petitions complicated by prior denials or immigration history. Delay litigation against USCIS runs through the firm's federal practice at USCISDelay.com ↗.
