More About Mary

Clients seek a cutting-edge approach to immigration compliance. Mary has been involved in the creation of dynamic reference documents to provide guidance to foreign national workers and answer their questions before they come up. She and her team are constantly looking to leverage technology to adapt to a shifting immigration environment and ensure consistently excellent work in a high-volume practice.

Mary has long been dedicated to immigration law. She served as an immigration paralegal with Seyfarth before attending the University of Georgia School of Law. During law school, she also worked with immigrants in the Community Health Law Partnership Clinic (HeLP Clinic) at UGA. Working with a smaller number of clients with more varied legal matters provides her with a more empathetic perspective regarding the challenges foreign national workers face as they navigate the US Immigration system.

Mary has worked in immigration law since graduating from college and has experienced multiple levels of immigration practice as a junior paralegal, mid-level paralegal, law clerk, and now, attorney. This diverse range of experience grants her a unique perspective in adapting available technologies to a complex, constantly-shifting immigration environment.

Mary is involved in various streamlining efforts in her position. She has participated in drives to improve the accessibility of technology for both foreign national end users, as well as Seyfarth paralegal end users and attorney end users. Mary has spearheaded efforts to improve the Seyfarth Link platform to provide a centralized and easy-to-navigate reference portal for multiple aspects of her immigration practice. She has also been involved in the development of strategies to reduce administrative lift and shorten client delivery timelines by working with the Seyfarth Link team and testing the platforms the team develops with her.

Mary loves that Seyfarth has always been open to ideas for process improvements. Leveraging technology as the Business Immigration Group does, allows her to adapt quickly while maintaining the excellence of her legal work product. This ability to adapt and scale rapidly is key in an area of law that is constantly shifting.
