THE FIRM

Technical Credentials.
Legal Excellence.

Aaron Weisman is a licensed attorney with a background that most immigration lawyers cannot claim: he operated a nuclear reactor aboard a U.S. Navy fast-attack submarine, directed aerospace operations under FAA and ITAR authority, and litigated intellectual property disputes at a national law firm.

That combination is not incidental — it is the foundation of every petition Lex Nautica files. When the case requires explaining what a nuclear engineer, aerospace systems integrator, or defense contractor actually does, we explain it with authority.
