International law firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP continues to grow the firm’s Business Immigration & Compliance practice and EB-5 group with the addition of Matthew Galati in the firm’s Philadelphia office. Galati joins the firm this week from Klasko, Rulon, Stock & Seltzer, LLP.

Galati will focus on matters related to the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program. His experience includes the full gamut of the EB-5 program, including the preparation of Form I-526 and Form I-829 petitions in unusual or complicated situations. Galati regularly handles employment-based nonimmigrant and immigrant visas, including E-2, H-1B, L-1, and O-1 classifications, among many others. He earned his B.A. from University of Virginia and his J.D. from George Washington University.

“We are pleased to add Matt to our EB-5 team and Immigration Practice,” said shareholder Kate Kalmykov. “His diversified experience in both the EB-5 arena and business immigration will lend itself well to the needs of the firm’s global clientele.”

Greenberg Traurig’s EB-5 group represents developers and business owners across a variety of industries, including hotel, office building, casino, manufacturing, retail, restaurant, technology, professional sports teams and alternative energy companies to obtain capital through the EB-5 Program.
