Martha Laura Garcia-Izaguirre is an immigration attorney who began her legal career at NMILC during the Trump Administration. Originally from San Luis Potosi, Mexico, she immigrated to the U.S. when she was 2 years old with her family. Martha Laura decided to become an immigration attorney after her own experience with the U.S. immigration system awoke her to the desperate need for legal professionals working immigration cases. Martha Laura says her fondest moment, so far, as an immigration attorney was witnessing a client embrace her daughter at the Albuquerque airport after 12 years of separation. Martha Laura helped the client and her daughter successfully navigate the T Visa process.
