Hi There

I have been an attorney in Syria for the last 15 years, recently I moved to the US, I was wondering if you can help me with these two questions.

1) What would be the fastest way for me to practice in the US ?

2) Can I open a consulting office for Syrians living in the US so I can advise them on issues pertaining to their legal matters IN Syria only ?

I rally appreciate any help in this area.

best regards,
zack
