I am an Associate Attorney at the Romero Firm.
I have experience representing detained and non-detained clients in immigration matters, including removal defense, asylum, family-based petitions, cancellation of removal, adjustment of status and naturalization applications.
I also have experience handling municipal/traffic and family court matters.My passion and drive to practice immigration law is rooted in my own immigration story.
I was born in Cairo, Egypt and later became a naturalized citizen of the United States.
