Mr. Guendelsberger worked for three years as a staff attorney with Ohio Legal Rights Service, a state agency advocating the rights of persons with mental or developmental disabilities. From 1980 to 1995, he was a professor of law at Ohio Northern University College of Law where he specialized in immigration law, comparative law and international law. Mr. Guendelsberger has written numerous articles in the area of immigration law and has represented aliens on a pro bono basis before Immigration Judges and the Board.
