I am a green card holder who has lived and studied in Canada for several years. In order to go to school in Canada while maintaining my residency in the United States, I have had to obtain re-entry permits. Talia has been wonderful in ensuring that I received these permits. Normally, US Immigration ceases to provide more than 5 permits to an applicant. Each permit lasts one to two years. However, Talia was able to get me a 6th permit for 2 years! Moreover, Talia has always been able to make the confusing legal jargon of US Immigration clear and easy to understand. She is hard working and committed to getting the best results for her clients. I recommend her services to anyone in need of a great immigration lawyer.
Comprehensive immigration law experience with specialization in employment-based immigrant and non-immigrant visas
13 years
I have a bachelor's degree in Philosophy, graduating with honors and emphasis in Ethics. I received my Doctorate of Jurisprudence from Chapman University School of Law and have been working in immigration law for more than eight years. I am a member of the Junior League of Boise, and volunteer for Catholic Charities and Women and Children's Alliance.
I feel honored that so many people have trusted me with their immigration matters. My passion is empowering those individuals who are maneuvering through this complex and often confusing U.S. immigration system. In a very real sense, lives are at stake. Families are at risk. I want to make the process as easy as I can for all of those attempting to obtain immigration benefits. Let me take some of the stress and confusion out of the process. Reach out to me.
