Attorney to discuss ‘Immigration: Past, Present, and Future’

The Jewish Bar Association of Michigan will host a special online presentation on “Immigration: Past, Present, and Future” Tuesday, September 19, from 5:30 to 6:30 pm via Zoom.

Attorney George P. Mann, of George P. Mann & Associates PC, will speak at the presentation. Mann has dedicated most of his adult life to helping thousands of immigrants, their families, employers, and sponsors, in just about every type of situation and from every background. This commitment is partly based upon Mann’s personal history as a former refugee from communist Romania and his family history.
