Owen Gu is an EB-5 immigration attorney at Owen Gu Law Group, P.C., who specializes in the development of Chinese markets and gives legal counsel to Chinese corporations and individuals on U.S. immigration and corporate law.
Prior to founding Owen Gu Law Group, Attorney Gu worked with Zhang & Associates, L.P., which has six branches across the United States and handles immigration law cases both within and outside the country.
Gu has gained much international experience over the course of his law career. During his internship with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) where he was stationed in Vienna, Austria, he was able to take part in the daily work against corruption and economic crimes. He contributed significantly to the ratification and implementation of what is now known as the United Nations Convention against Corruption (UNCAC). Due to his passion in the fight against corruption, he became involved in the first meeting of the Implementation Review Group for UNCAC and met delegates from China and Singapore that resulted in the countries’ enactment of their obligations in the fight against corruption, and specifically with their duties reflected in the UNCAC Review Mechanism.
Gu began his legal practice with a law firm in New York City, where he focused on commercial litigation cases, immigration, and matrimonial law cases.
He earned his Bachelor of Commerce at Queen’s University, where he graduated with honors. He was awarded the St. Thomas More Full Tuition Scholarship to attend St. John’s University School of Law in New York City where he received his Juris Doctor.

What does it mean to be a VERIFIED member of EB5Investors.com?
EB5Investors.com verifies attorney members before placing them on our directory. Not all professionals pass the verification process, and we are not paid by members in any way for verified badges. The entire verification process is performed by EB5Investors.com staff members based in Irvine, California.
We perform a background check on the member by using BeenVerified.com’s online background check tool. The BeenVerified.com criminal background database is compiled by pulling together public records. Misconduct, such as a proven criminal record, disqualifies the applicant from obtaining a verified badge from EB5Investors.com. For attorneys that practice law in the United States, a staff member also checks to make sure the attorney is in good standing with the BAR of the state they represent to practice bar in.
The Verified Badge does not mean or represent that the attorney has experience or specializes in immigration law. Please consult the State Bar or other government based sites for more information on a particular attorney.
