About Barbara
Biography
I am an immigrant myself. I know what you are feeling.
I have worked and studied hard. As a result of these efforts, I became an Immigration Officer and remained thus for 16+ years. During my tenor as an Immigration Officer, I saw how many of my fellow potential immigrants were being taken advantage of by unscrupulous persons. These observations helped me decide to become an Immigration Attorney; my hard earned skills were needed on this side of the fence. I had achieved MY Immigration dream; and for the last 15+ years I have devoted my life to helping others achieve their Immigration dream. I know and I believe that the achievement of legal immigration status will leave one free to ultimately move onto bigger and better aspirations and achievements --for all of us, our families, and especially for our children.
