I-9 Compliance and Hiring Practices

In recent years, efforts to curtail undocumented or illegal immigration have largely focused on employer compliance. Businesses have been asked to serve as frontline immigration officers, confirming the identity and work authorization of every new hire.

Our attorneys assist clients with implementing proper hiring procedures, managing the I-9 completion and recordkeeping requirements, and enrolling and participating in employment verification systems, such as E-Verify.
