K9 Team Members

In addition to our passion for immigration law, we are also passionate about our pets (animals in general, but mostly dogs). We are sustaining sponsors for CLAWS animal rescue and Blind Spot Animal Sanctuary and on any given day, you can find up to four dogs playing in the office. Heather's first boss out of law school brought dogs to the office (Stella & Pippy), and we carry on that tradition to this day with our own fur babies.

Here are some fun facts about the K9 crew. Hopefully they’ll make you as happy as they make us!
