Lucas J. Wood

Senior Associate Attorney

Lucas is a Senior Associate Attorney proficient in guiding clients through the complex corporate immigration landscape. He specializes in employment-based solutions for corporate clients in high-growth industries, such as hi-tech, cloud computing, fin-tech, and IoT, where he develops strategies tailored for every need.

Lucas graduated from the University of Nebraska College of Law in 2018 and holds a Bachelor of Arts in English. During his undergrad, Lucas was a research assistant for a political science professor working in international law, which sparked his passion for understanding how the U.S. legal system fits within a global structure, and led him to immigration law. Before joining BIL, Lucas worked as an attorney representing clients at USCIS interviews and in removal proceedings for humanitarian relief and other forms of removal defense. He also worked on various business immigration visas, including H-1Bs and L-1s, as well as immigrant matters such as National Interest Waivers. Lucas continues to build his expertise on corporate immigration matters here at BIL, supporting our clients on wide-ranging global mobility and compliance matters.

An avid sports fan and former rugby national tournament qualifier himself, Lucas enjoys watching football, wrestling, and rugby. In his free time, he loves to travel, cook, and go camping along with his two bulldogs, Frank and Spud. Family-oriented, Lucas enjoys spending time with his eight nieces and nephews.
