Alexander Susi, Esq.
Alexander Susi handles immigration matters from deportation defense through asylum, alongside civil and commercial litigation. He is admitted in three states, in the Second Circuit, and before the immigration courts and the Board of Immigration Appeals.
Current as of October 2026. We re-check this page every quarter and after any change in the law.
Mr. Susi studied history and political science at New York University and earned his law degree at Boston University School of Law. During the pandemic he gave volunteer legal help to military veterans and helped survivors of domestic violence obtain free legal services.
At the firm his immigration work covers removal defense in the immigration courts, asylum, and the motions and briefs that go with both. His commercial practice, including disputes over fraudulent transfers of property, means he is used to cases that are won on documents: who signed what, when, and what the record actually shows.
That same discipline is what a VAWA case needs. A self-petition is decided on paper, and survivors often have few papers: the abuser kept the lease, the bank account and the photographs. On this site's subject, Mr. Susi works on building the record from what a survivor does have, including the written declaration and the statements of people who saw the marriage and the abuse.
