As partner and senior executive since 2001, Bianco managed the firm’s capital markets and investor relations and led operations in Florida and Texas. He was previously counsel for Tishman Speyer Properties in New York and started his career as a real estate attorney with Bachner, Tally, Polevoy & Mishner, according to a press release.

Crocker Partners’ $2 billion portfolio includes 8.6 million square feet of Class A office and mixed-use properties in the Southeast.

Arnstein & Lehr LLP is expanding its Florida team. Immigration attorney and EB-5 expert Roger A. Bernstein was named a partner and will lead the law firm’s immigration practices group. He’s also joining Arnstein & Lehr’s EB-5 practice group, which is chaired by partner Ronnie Fieldstone.

Bernstein works with developers, regional centers and high net worth individuals to navigate the popular visa program, which grants green cards to foreign nationals who invest at least $500,000 in a job-creating venture.

Bernstein was previously with Bernstein Osberg-Braun, a firm he co-founded in 1998.

Arnstein & Lehr also brought on Amy Link as a partner in the immigration practice group, and associates Cynthia V. Gomez and Qian Wen.
