Louisville, Kentucky, Sapon Immigration Law is proud to announce that Founder and CEO Janie Sapon has been selected for inclusion in the 2027 edition of The Best Lawyers in America® for her work in Immigration Law.
The Best Lawyers® lists are compiled annually based on an exhaustive peer-review evaluation. For the 2027 edition of The Best Lawyers in America®, millions of confidential evaluations were analyzed, resulting in recognition for the most respected and accomplished lawyers in the country. Best Lawyers recognition isn’t a paid ranking, lawyers are not required nor allowed to pay a fee to be listed, so inclusion is considered a singular honor and a result of significant peer and professional evaluation.
“This is actually my first time being included in Best Lawyers, so it means a lot,” said Sapon. “We’re grateful for this recognition from our peers. It reflects the work our team does every day for the employers and families who trust us. Those clients have proven they already see us as among the best through their decision to continually choose both me and Sapon Immigration for their legal immigration needs year after year. But it’s nice that the work we’ve put in over the years is being noticed by other attorneys as well, who understand the complexities of this field best.”
As a Louisville, Kentucky immigration law firm, our work centers on helping employers navigate the visa process across the industries that keep our region and economy running, including agriculture, food processing, manufacturing, construction, roofing, framing, landscaping, pool installation, and hospitality and tourism. That includes H-2A visas for seasonal agricultural workers, H-2B visas for seasonal roles in construction, roofing, framing, landscaping, pools, and hospitality, TN visas for professional and technician roles, PERM labor certification, and O-1 visas for individuals with extraordinary ability. We also handle I-9/E-Verify compliance for employers who want to get it right from the start. On the family and individual side, we work with people in our local communities as well as those located all across the U.S. with processes including adjustment of status, consular processing, naturalization, waivers, military PIP, SIJS, U visas and VAWA.
Being recognized alongside some of the most established immigration practices in Kentucky reflects the relationships we’ve built across the country, through business and industry organizations, speaking engagements, and the connections that come from staying active in the field. This achievement belongs to our entire team, and to the clients who trust us with something as important as their workforce.
If your business needs support with H-2A, H-2B, TN, PERM, or any other employment-based visa process, whether you’re in agriculture, food processing, manufacturing, construction, roofing, landscaping, pools, or hospitality and tourism, and you’re looking for an immigration law firm that understands these industries from the ground up, we’re the right firm for you. Businesses seeking guidance with employment based immigration matters can turn to a Louisville, KY immigration lawyer for assistance with the legal requirements involved.
Best Lawyers® has been recognizing top legal talent since 1983, making it one of the longest-running peer-review publications in the legal industry. Rather than rankings based on advertising or self-submission, Best Lawyers® relies on attorneys evaluating other attorneys in their same practice area, a process designed to surface genuine professional respect rather than marketing reach. Each year’s list reflects that ongoing, confidential evaluation among peers.
