About Katja
Biography
Katja Kallis Hedding practices exclusively in the area of immigration law. Born in Finland and having lived, studied and worked in several different countries, the private practice of immigration law was a natural choice for her.
Katja has worked as an attorney in the Finnish Parliament at the Ombudsman’s Office and as a law clerk in a Finnish District court. She has also worked as an attorney in New York and Nashville.
Being a U.S. immigrant herself, Katja has a good understanding of how hard it can be to go through the immigration/visa process. Katja will take great effort and care to help you through the complex US immigration system.
Keep the Dream and File the Visa.
I practice exclusively in the area of immigration law. I work with clients from all over the world.
