Principal
Danielle represents businesses, individuals and families worldwide in front of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, Immigration Customs & Enforcement, the Administrative Appeals Office, the Department of Justice, the Department of State, the Department of Health and Human Services and in Federal Court.
Danielle has extensive experience working with her clients to achieve their immigration goals from routine filings to complex federal litigation. She has helped clients obtain permanent residence (green cards), business and employment visas, family based immigration benefits and extraordinary ability visas.
Danielle is a religious worker visa expert and has represented Catholic Religious Orders, Protestant Congregations, Conservative Mennonites, the Amish and many other religious organizations and communities in front of USCIS and in Federal Court. She believes that religious worker visas are an essential part of the protections afforded by the Free Exercise Clause in the First Amendment.
Danielle has significant federal court litigation experience including federal immigration lawsuits requesting declaratory judgments, Administrative Procedure Act review, mandamus, Constitutional, injunctive relief and Freedom of Information Act requests.
Danielle lives in Atkinson, New Hampshire with her husband Chris and their two dogs, Luna the Great Pyrenees and Jed the Great Dane. She enjoys quilting, crafting and construction.
