Join us for an insightful conversation with Robert H. Cohen, a nationally recognized Columbus attorney and expert in immigration law.
Robert H. Cohen, a partner at Porter Wright in Columbus, has practiced immigration law for over 45 years, focusing on both business and family immigration. He has been honored as a Midwest Trailblazer by The American Lawyer and received the National Law Journal’s Immigration Trailblazer Award and the Jack Wasserman Memorial Award from the American Immigration Lawyers Association.
Despite headlines about the hardships immigrants face, immigration has quietly become the leading driver of U.S. population growth — surging from 376,000 newcomers in 2020–21 to 2.8 million in 2023–24. Cities like Columbus are feeling this impact firsthand, as local communities evolve and adapt.
Cohen will unpack the current immigration landscape, the legal complexities, and how professionals, policymakers, and communities can offer meaningful support.
Join us to better understand the challenges — and opportunities — at the heart of today’s immigration story.
