also known as Mary Lynn Anna Seery
Originally from New Jersey, I have been working with immigrants since 2010 as a volunteer with AYUDA, Inc. in Washington, DC. I am passionate about my work, and truly enjoy each individual that I have the pleasure to serve. I specialize in matters where criminal law and immigration law intersect, and have secured wins in difficult cases for detained and nondetained individuals, including complex legal eligibility arguments. I am well-versed in all matters of immigration, including family-, employment-, and investment-based matters, removal defense, naturalization (including for individuals with a criminal history), as well as waivers and consular matters. I have presented with the American Immigration Lawyers Association on matters pertaining to removal defense.
When I am not working on behalf of my clients, I enjoy spending time with my husband, our children Joanna and Joshua, and our dog Clara. I am also a professional vocalist on staff with St. Patrick's Cathedral in Dilworth, Charlotte, NC, and spend time contributing to our community and congregation.

Mary Lynn was thorough, reviewing case studies before making recommendations and truthful when she did not feel it was in our best interest to pursue a certain direction. This was a very tenuous deportation ...
