For businesses aiming to stay competitive in a global economy, securing top talent often means looking beyond borders. But what happens when outdated immigration systems and legal complexities stand in the way of hiring the people you need? How can companies navigate these obstacles to bring global talent into the US workforce?

According to Bennett Savitz, an immigration attorney with over 30 years of experience, the key lies in planning ahead and understanding the intricacies of the process. He highlights that US immigration laws, largely unchanged since 1990, create inefficiencies and bottlenecks for businesses retaining foreign talent. By focusing on proactive strategies and leveraging automated systems, companies can mitigate the pain points caused by bureaucratic delays and quotas. Bennett underscores the importance of collaboration between legal counsel and employers, ensuring compliance while optimizing outcomes for both businesses and their employees.
