About Alexander Hammons
Alexander Hammons Wiker trained as a lawyer across three different academic settings. He holds a J.D. (2013) from Pennsylvania State University — Dickinson School of Law, an M.A./LL.M. (2010) from Johns Hopkins University’s Nanjing University Center for Chinese and U.S. Studies, and dual B.A. degrees (2005) in East Asian Studies and Philosophy from Pennsylvania State University, University Park. Those degrees reflect an interest in international and regional issues that has threaded through his career.
He began practicing after law school in Philadelphia-area firms. In 2015 he worked as an associate at Kelly, Parker & Cohen, LLP. Two years later he moved to the Murphy Law Office, PA as an associate, and in 2018 he joined David F. Vedder, P.A. as a senior associate immigration lawyer. Those roles involved courtroom appearances, client counseling and drafting immigration filings, and they helped shape his litigation and case-management approach.
Wiker is admitted to practice in Pennsylvania and appears on the dockets of multiple federal courts. His listed jurisdictions include the Middle District of Pennsylvania and the 3rd Circuit, and he is also admitted in the 11th Circuit. He is a current member of the State Bar of Pennsylvania and maintains an active presence in bar-related activities.
Beyond courtroom practice, he holds a certification as a mediator from the Center for Alternatives in Community Justice. That credential points to an interest in dispute resolution outside traditional litigation. Colleagues describe his mediation work as methodical; he has handled settlement conferences and administrative mediations tied to immigration and civil matters.
Wiker’s professional path has emphasized immigration law in recent years. His positions at specialized immigration offices gave him repeated exposure to family-based petitions, removal defense and administrative appeals. He has prepared briefs for federal court filings and assisted clients through administrative processes before immigration agencies.
Today he practices at Immigos. The office listing shows his current affiliation, where he continues to work on immigration cases. He combines courtroom experience, mediation training and earlier general litigation work in his practice. He currently practices immigration law at Immigos, handling immigration matters.
