Immigration lawyers essentially help new residents of a country make a smooth legal transition into legitimate citizenship. Immigration attorneys also help protect their clients from deportation and provide counsel pertaining to work visas and related subjects. Because Sacramento immigration lawyers work with people who are typically just getting their bearings in the States, they often scale their fees to suit the means of their clients.
Many times, clients have asked me why I became an immigration attorney. For those of you who do not know, I absolutely love being an immigration attorney. Some people kind of fall into their professions by happenstance, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that path. However my journey has been a much more deliberate one. In fact, if I couldn’t practice immigration law, I probably wouldn’t practice law at all.
I have always been interested in other countries, and people from other countries. My love affair with international cultures began when my parents took me to Disney World before I could talk. My absolute favorite ride was “It’s a Small World After All.” In fact, I liked it so much that when I learned to talk a few months later, I sang the song from memory!
My interest in international cultures and people continued throughout my childhood and youth. I developed a keen interest in Spanish in middle school, both because I had a natural knack for languages, and because it offered yet another opportunity to study not just one culture, but the many cultures that share that tongue. In high school, I aspired to be the first female Secretary of State, but then Madeleine Albright beat me to it.
