The Bobb Law Firm PLLC

Focus and practice areas

The firm keeps its work to three areas of law: business, family, and immigration. The Bobb Law Firm PLLC runs from White Plains, New York, and holds a second office in Mississauga, Ontario. Its stated client base covers Westchester County and the Greater Toronto Area. That two-country setup shapes how the firm reads, and it shows most clearly in the immigration files.

Running three practice areas from a small office is a broad remit for a firm this size. The through-line is the immigration work, which reaches past Westchester County to clients in the Greater Toronto Area. The business and family services stay closer to home, tied to the New York and Ontario licenses the firm holds.

Business clients come to the firm for company formation, contract drafting, and contract review. The firm also handles business litigation when a matter goes before a court. On the family side, the work runs to divorce, child support modification, custody modification, guardianships, and marital settlement agreements. Mediation and notary services round out what the firm offers.

The attorney behind the firm

Mark W. Bobb founded the practice in 2020 and is the named attorney across its pages. He holds an LL.M from Florida International University College of Law and an LL.B from Oxford Brookes University in England. He also holds an MBA and a BA from St. Thomas University. He is licensed in New York State and in Ontario.

Bobb was born in Toronto to parents who immigrated from Guyana. His site describes work across Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdom, in public service, in-house roles, and private practice. That range of settings gives some context for why one office handles business, family, and immigration matters together. In my opinion, the dual license does more work here than the credentials alone, because it is what lets the firm act in two legal systems at once.

Immigration work on both sides of the border

The firm's immigration services cover family-based immigration, adjustment of status, student visas, and TN visas. The TN category comes from the trade agreement among the United States, Canada, and Mexico, and it lets certain professionals work across the border in listed occupations. A firm licensed in both New York and Ontario can speak to how a move reads from each end. These four services form the immigration side of the practice, and they apply to moves toward either country.

Adjustment of status is the step by which someone already in the United States applies to become a permanent resident while remaining in the country. It runs through U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and often turns on timing, eligibility category, and supporting documents. Family-based petitions follow their own sequence, which starts with a sponsoring relative and a filed petition before a visa becomes available. These are general outlines of how such matters proceed, and they are not claims about any one result at the firm.

Student visas let foreign nationals study at approved schools, and they carry rules on enrollment, work, and length of stay. For students who later want to work, the TN route and adjustment of status are two of the paths that can follow. Because the firm sits inside both immigration systems, it can field a question that points toward the United States or toward Canada.

Family and business matters

Family cases at the firm include the first filing and the changes that come later. Modification of child support and modification of custody both ask a court to revisit an order after circumstances shift, such as a change in income or a move. Guardianships put a court in charge of naming someone to act for a person who cannot act alone. A marital settlement agreement sets out how a couple divides property and handles support, and it can shorten the contested part of a divorce.

Mediation earns its own note. It is a process where a neutral third person helps two sides reach an agreement outside a full court fight, and it can lower both cost and conflict in a family matter. The firm offers it alongside its courtroom work, which gives a client more than one route to a resolution. Notary services cover the sworn signing and witnessing that many of these filings require.

On the business side, company formation is the paperwork and filings that bring an entity into being, which includes choosing a structure and registering it with the state. Contract review and drafting is steady, document-heavy work that tends to head off disputes before they start. When a dispute does reach litigation, the firm represents the business through that process. As a reviewer, I read the pairing of formation work and litigation as a sign the firm follows a client relationship past the opening documents.

What the public record shows

The site is direct about scope. Outside New York and Ontario, the firm states that its practice is limited to immigration and other federal matters, which is an honest boundary for a two-country office to draw. The pages also list social profiles on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X, and YouTube for anyone who wants to follow the firm's updates.

The site lists the two jurisdictions where Bobb is licensed, though it does not give the years of his admission. What the pages do show is a single-attorney firm founded in 2020, built around one lawyer's licenses in two jurisdictions and a defined set of business, family, and immigration services. The firm keeps two offices, one in White Plains and one in Mississauga, and it works the border between them across all three of its practice areas.
