Isabel Palacios is a legal professional with Hispanic heritage from Mexico. Her parents were American, and her grandparents were Spanish immigrants that came to the USA after years of struggle. When her parents died, Isabel inherited her family’s wealth, and this was used to help her pay for college so that she could get an education and fulfill her dreams of a successful career. Unfortunately, Isabel’s dream of getting a lawyer was never fulfilled because she remained too broke to even get a part-time job as a paralegal and instead continued to work as a secretary in a corporation. One day, her boss gave her the chance to be a receptionist, and before long, Isabel became a professional paralegal, specializing in trial practice and white collar jobs, but as luck would have it, her friend introduced her to an interesting legal opportunity which allowed her to work as a social worker, and later on, an attorney.
Isabel became a very dedicated legal practitioner, dedicating her services not only to white collar jobs and trial practice, but also to helping people break away from their native countries and build a new life in America. She worked hard and smartly to gain clients by showing them that they had everything to gain by filing for nationality, and then she represented their case all the way through the court process and ultimately helped them gain freedom and a new future. Although the odds are heavily stacked against you if you’re an immigrant, with the right attorney on your side, you can win the lottery, secure a position in the Air Force or Navy, and even get a top level position in the government. It is very rare that you will find someone like Isabel Palacios in these positions today. If you want to break free from your homeland and country, you need an immigration attorney with a deep knowledge of social services, trial practices, and legal services that are offered to immigrants, such as filing for nationality.
Isabel is currently working as a legal assistant in Texas while pursuing her master’s degree, and she states that she always wanted to go back to college to get a degree in social work. After law school, she went to work for the Immigration Reform Office in Washington D.C. where she would assist lawyers with cases involving national origin, employer compliance, employment law and other important topics. She enjoys talking about her experience as a legal assistant and what she knows is helping other people like herself who are looking for better opportunities in this profession. She feels that this is an excellent choice for a person who is committed to serving the public.
