About Jennifer Roggemann Law Office

Jennifer Roggemann Law Office is a Kitchener firm that focuses on Canadian immigration law. It's led by its founder and namesake, Jennifer Roggemann, who was called to the Ontario bar in 2000 after a B.A. in psychology at the University of Guelph and a law degree at the University of Victoria. The practice grew out of a personal history with immigration. Roggemann came to Canada from South Korea in grade 11 without speaking English, and now handles the same kinds of applications that let other newcomers settle here.

The firm covers a wide slice of immigration work. That includes spousal and family sponsorship, study permits, work permits and post-graduate work permits, visitor and parent visas, the Provincial Nominee Program, Express Entry, and labour market applications for employers hiring from abroad, along with permanent residence for people already in Canada. A small team of immigration staff supports the practice, and between the founder and the staff clients can be served in Korean, Spanish, and Cantonese as well as English. Roggemann has written immigration articles for the Korean Consulate in Toronto and belongs to the Canadian Immigration Lawyers Association.

The neighbourhood

The office sits at 1135 King Street East, on one of Kitchener's main commercial streets, southeast of the downtown core. It's a plain storefront address on a busy corridor, straightforward to reach for clients coming from across Waterloo Region.

Waterloo Region is a fitting base for an immigration practice. It's home to the University of Waterloo and Wilfrid Laurier University and a large technology sector, which together draw international students and skilled workers from around the world. Those are the same study permits, post-graduate work permits, and skilled-worker applications the firm handles, so many of its clients live and work a short drive away.
