About Randi

Randi Megan Otwell has been a practicing attorney for eight years and has devoted a majority of her time in practice to immigration law.  As an immigration attorney, she has litigated cases in Immigration Court, before the Board of Immigration Appeals, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit.  She has also assisted clients in obtaining successful results in naturalization cases, petitions for alien relatives, petitions for alien workers, adjustment applications, VAWA cases, and consular processing, including waivers of inadmissibility.

 Prior to starting her own legal practice, Randi Megan Otwell worked at multiple boutique law firms in Dallas, Texas.  While she gained invaluable experience at those firms, she started her own firm with the goal of providing clients with greater personalized service at more affordable rates.  The immigration process can be a difficult one, and Randi Megan Otwell firmly believes that an immigration lawyer should make the process easier, not harder.  

We believe in providing custom tailored solutions to immigration problems.  We offer a free initial telephone consultation to understand your immigration situation.  We will thoroughly research your needs and develop a personalized plan of action; therefore, the first time you sit down with an attorney, the focus is on solving your problem and a path forward.

Review Randi Otwell

A great and compassionate lawyer

Posted by anonymousThu Nov 30 2017

I hired Ms. Otwell to represent me in a wrongful dismissal suite against a Texas company. Ms. Otwell was diligent in pursuing the Texas government that represent workers rights to ensure that the situation was properly and promptly reviewed. Ms. Otwell made two appearances in court on my behalf, and the case was solved with a payment from the company to me. More importantly, Ms. Otwell represented me with loyalty, compassion, and an relenting passion to drive my case to an acceptable solution for me. I would strongly recommend Ms. Otwell to any one that needs legal representation and I would certainly hire her again should the need occur.
