As the co-chair of the WCBA, we have planned, coordinated and conducted various CLE programs in the field of immigration law, criminal law and immigration, and attorney ethics.

I have written for several publications within both the legal and general communities. My articles appear in local newspapers, law reviews, trade publications and other publications.

One recent case involved a local company who found out that many of their workers were illegal and they needed assistance in order to determine how to keep the workers and at the same time to legalize their status. We were able to assist many of the company employees to obtain residency in the United States and they are now able to work for the company legally.

Another case involved a family who had hired a nanny for their children, only to find out that the nanny was illegal. We assisted the family to sponsor the nanny and she is now legally working for the family.

We assisted a man who was incarcerated for a crime he had committed many years ago to obtain relief from deportation under the Convention Against Torture. He is now released from prison and living with his wife and family.

We assisted two women from Poland who were involved in a same-sex relationship in order to obtain political asylum in the United States.

We assisted a man to bring his finance to the United States from Brazil; he later married her and she recently became a citizen of this country.
