Lester’s immigration practice includes representation of individuals, families and businesses. He has appeared on CNN’s “The Lead with Jake Tapper” and in national news outlets, including The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, Reuters and ABC News.

In 2019 and 2020, he was selected to the Mid-South Super Lawyers list.
