About Daniel R.
Daniel R. Lasar practices law in New Jersey and New York. He built his legal foundation in the classroom and then took that knowledge into two state bars. His career reflects a steady progression from academic study to practical work across state lines.
He earned his Juris Doctor from Emory University School of Law in 1997 after attending Emory beginning in 1994. Before law school, he completed a Bachelor of Arts at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1993, majoring in political science and minoring in business. Those years shaped his interest in law and policy and prepared him for practice in two neighboring states.
After completing his legal education, Lasar became admitted to practice in both New Jersey and New York. He is a member of the New Jersey bar and the New York bar, and he has handled matters that require familiarity with the rules and procedures of both jurisdictions. He has developed experience managing cases that involve clients in either state and coordinating efforts when matters cross state lines.
Lasar is a member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association. That membership signals sustained engagement with immigration law issues, continuing legal education, and professional exchange. His work involves interactions with federal agencies and, when needed, advocacy before immigration courts and federal forums. He represents individuals and families on procedural filings, eligibility matters, and case preparation.
Colleagues describe him as steady and pragmatic in handling client matters. He approaches cases by explaining options plainly, preparing documentation carefully, and anticipating procedural steps. Clients often face tight deadlines and complex forms; his practice emphasizes clarity and thorough preparation to reduce surprises and delays.
Outside of casework, Lasar attends professional programs that keep him current on evolving rules and policies. He participates in association activities that focus on changes in federal immigration regulations and related practice issues. He also works to ensure that filings meet the procedural standards expected by courts and agencies.
He maintains a main office and works with clients across New Jersey and New York, balancing consultations, filings, and court appearances as needed. He currently handles immigration matters for individuals and families in both states.
