Learning and implementing said systems has been challenging. To be successful the firm requires structures and systems in place that go well beyond simply practicing law. We have been forced to learn that a successful law firm cannot run solely on passion. Building and growing the firm to where it is today has not been easy. Instead of merely complaining about the way immigrants have been treated throughout the ages, we get active in the process by speaking out through media appearances whether on local television, radio, or print on local newspapers. We are most proud of our civic involvement. The firm deeply cares about its clients and it shows. The effort to keep the client informed of their own case and the many changes in immigration law sets the firm apart. Similarly, we understand the government does not always exemplify transparency when dealing with sensitive matters in immigration. We know that there is nothing worse than not knowing what is happening during a process as stressful and life changing as immigrating to another country like the United States. As a firm founded by the children of immigrants, we understand the process and how it feels to live it from the other side. While other firms might be too busy to keep clients informed, Isa Law strives on client communication. Since its inception the firm has substantially grown yet it continues to provide its clients with personalized care. It was originally founded along with its only paralegal and the backbone of the firm, Alina Del Castillo. I practice immigration law because I witnessed firsthand how immigrants have made and continue to keep the United States as the amazing country it has been since being founded by the immigrants who fought for it in 1776.Ĭan you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?Īfter practicing Immigration Law in other law firms with a variety of partners, Isa Law officially opened in 2019. My coworkers, colleagues, friends, and family deeply shaped who I am and what I do. I worked alongside immigrants who spent so much time searching for the best visa opportunity or living in anonymity for their own protection. When I started doing so I finally witnessed what some may consider the life of an immigrant. To survive I had to work in the city I eventually turned into my new home. After high school, I moved to Miami for college. While living in Caracas I had the privilege of attending an international school in which I was exposed to a wide variety of different cultures I probably would have never experienced had I spent the rest of my life sheltered in the magnificence of my island Puerto Rico. I had the honor of being raised in paradise until the tender age of 15 when my entire family moved to Venezuela for my father to pursue a great employment opportunity. It was never her intent to live the life of an immigrant nor did she ever need to, yet love chose her path. My mother deeply loves her country and would have never left Venezuela had she not met my charming father while studying abroad in the United States. I was born on the beautiful island of Puerto Rico to a Puerto Rican father and a Venezuelan mother.
