My name is Shobhana Kasturi and I am a proud first generation immigrant.   I am practicing immigration law to give voice to those who need it the most. I arrived in this country as a teenager and saw my parents work 10 hour days to raise my brother and I. I witnessed my parents (who were in their mid forties and fifties respectively when they arrived in the United States) make the sacrifices to keep a roof over our heads, educate and provide for us. I know what it means to have gone through consular processing, the interview pertaining to getting an immigrant visa, studying for the citizenship test, and going through the naturalization process. I know what it feels like to adjust to a new culture and environment. Most importantly, I understand the pride and joy of having an opportunity to reside in the United States and build a life here.. My personal experiences as an immigrant led me to choose a career in law to make a difference. I have spent part of my career representing children in juvenile court and also represented clients facing dire financial hardships. I have worked in a non-profit organization as well in larger law firms. I started my own firm because I want each and every client to know they count and will get the attention they deserve.  In me, you will find someone who enjoys helping people and someone who is committed to making a positive impact.
