Maria provides consulting and expert support to attorneys who need experienced guidance on complex or unfamiliar immigration matters. Many small firms encounter cases they have never handled before—particularly at the intersection of criminal and immigration law, in deportation defense and detention matters, or in affirmative federal litigation. Maria serves as senior counsel, working alongside attorneys to evaluate cases, think through strategy, and identify risks so they can move forward thoughtfully and effectively. She also advises businesses and organizations facing discrete immigration questions or urgent legal issues that require experienced insight.
