About Julie
Biography
Julie is the founder and co-owner of three companies: a law firm and two legal/HR compliance software companies, all of which have won key awards for Innovation and Excellence. The two early companies have also won Inc. 500/SF Business Times Fastest Growing Awards, along with Best Employer and Customer Service awards. She began her career when the field of “Business Immigration” was emerging as the proving grounds for transformations in the legal industry, especially the use of technology for efficiency and transparency.
Julie served as Deputy Attorney General for the State of California, then started her firm in 1995 with the former head of the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service. One of the two largest women-owned firms in Northern California for over a decade, Pearl Law Group has won more accolades per attorney than any American firm in their field (business immigration). Human Resource Executive magazine has named Julie one of “The Nation's Most Powerful Employment Attorneys” and one of “The Nation’s Top 20 Immigration Attorneys” every year since the list began. She is the only Northern California attorney to receive a “Star Individual” ranking in the Chambers Global and Chambers USA Guides to the World’s Leading Lawyers. She’s also named at the highest levels by US News/Best Lawyers in America, Super Lawyers, etc. In 2013, Pearl Law Group was one of only two law firms nationwide selected for the Super Lawyers’ Pro Bono Award, and was also the first firm to win the Fortune-1000 adjudicated “Immigration Provider of the Year” award in the Americas (Forum for Expatriate Management).
Julie received a BA in Economics from Stanford University, an MPA from Harvard University and a JD from UCSF-Hastings.
