ABOUT US

SamiaLaw was founded by Attorney Samia who has lived the immigrant experience. She grew up in a migrant Pakistani family in Scotland and faced the challenges of finding belonging in a dominant western society. She has spent much of her life working with immigrants on a professional and charitable basis. Her work in civil liberties, public international law and global migration led her to admission to Harvard Law School.

She has over 20 years of experience in US immigration law as well as experience overseas in UK immigration law.  She is a member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association, Massachusetts Bar, Law Society of England & Wales (renewal pending), and the South Asian Bar Association of Greater Boston and and alumni member of the United Nations Leadership Academy.  She has specialized experience in healthcare immigration issues as well as elite level athletes and artists.

Attorney Samia started the practice with the aim of providing a transparent open service which would reduce the stress clients often have when doing business with a law firm.  The firm achieves this by providing detailed monthly case status reports, more direct contact with the attorneys, and printed case plans for every case. The firm also has a bank of information sheets compiled over 20 years for almost every FAQ, as well as detailed checklists and directions for every step of a case.
