Andrea F. Chavarria

I was born in Mexico and grew up in a suburb outside of Dallas. I am fluent in Spanish. I graduated from the University of North Texas in 2004 with a BA in Journalism. Afterwards, I moved to London, England to attend Schiller International University, where I received an MA in International Relations & Diplomacy. In May 2009, I graduated from Thomas M. Cooley Law School. During law school, I interned at one of the largest immigration law firms in Texas.  

In November 2009, I received my law license and was admitted to the State Bar of Texas. Prior to opening my own practice, I worked for a firm in Austin, TX. I am a member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association and Dallas Bar Association.

I am an advocate for immigrant rights. I work closely with the Mexican Consulate in Dallas and other organizations to promote and inform immigrants of their rights. I also handles pro bono cases for unaccompanied children and asylees.
