Practice Areas: Immigration

My parents immigrated to the United States in the 1970s to pursue what most people coming to the United States want:  The American Dream.  My father is a physician, my  mother a biochemist, and I witnessed firsthand how, through their hard work and perseverance, they became lawful permanent residents and, ultimately, proud citizens of the United States.. Immigration, as a result, has been at the forefront of my consciousness since my childhood.  Therefore, it is my mission to assist those who, like my family, want to come, either temporarily or permanently, to the United States and create a life of happiness, prosperity, and possibility for themselves. It is an honor and privilege to be an advocate for those people, and I am grateful that I can rise each day and provide this service.

Practice Areas: Immigration

I have been practicing immigration law since I first got my law license in 2013. I love this area of law because with each case, no matter if it's in front of USCIS or before the immigration court, I feel like I am able to change the life of not just my client, but their entire family as well. As the child of a Mexican immigrant, I know how important, yet difficult, it is to establish one's life in the United States. As I have gained more experience and knowledge of the U.S. immigration system, I have tried to design my practice in such a way that makes the immigration process easier to understand and follow.  I strive to ensure each client is treated as a friend and a partner rather than a case number.
