Experienced Immigration Paralegal

My name is Mariano E. Barrenechea and I am a Bilingual (EN/SP) Immigration Paralegal** two years of experience in family and humanitarian-based Immigration Law. I also have some experience with employment-based cases. I am very familiar with the Act, Title 8 of the C.F.R., and Immigration case law, and have substantial experience with filings before USCIS, EOIR, and the BIA. As an Experienced Paralegal, I can work on a case from scratch with little supervision, providing the attorney with a finished product for final review. Throughout the process, I communicate any doubts or potential red flags in the case. I am very open to constructive criticism and always have a positive attitude towards the client and the Attorney. Through the utilization of emotional intelligence, I can connect with clients in a more personal way, thus giving them a feeling of warmth and reassurance that their case is in excellent hands. Well-versed in Immigration Litigation (preparing Motions to Terminate/Reopen/Admin Close, among others, as well as pleadings, pre-trial briefs, PD requests with OPLA, Writ of Mandamus actions, and assistance in appealing to Circuit Courts). In the USCIS front, I can handle the drafting of waivers (I-601, I-601A, I-192, and I-212), Asylum/42B/U/T/VAWA/SIJ applications, DACA/TPS filings, Medical Deferred Action and Military Parole in Place requests, I-130 petitions (CP and AOS), responses to complex NOIDs/RFEs, I-290B, and appeals before the BIA. In the employment/business immigration end, I have experience with TN and E-2 Visas, EB2 NIW, EB-1A filings, and I-140 adjustments (with and without I-485). I consider myself a real team player. I take action, even in the most stressful times. My ability to work under stress and being deadline-conscious enables the Attorney to delegate tasks with ease and trust. If your firm is experiencing rapid growth, or if suddenly you’re severely backlogged with your caseload, I am the ideal person for you. Thank you for reading. I am open to steady part-time positions with growth opportunities (as well as short-term projects), so do not hesitate to send me a message if I can be a suitable match with your Law Firm. ** Please note that I am a Paralegal who works - and has always worked - under the supervision of a licensed professional. I do not engage in the unauthorized practice of the law, nor do I counsel on legal topics of any kind. If you are an individual seeking representation in your matters, I will happily refer you out to an experienced professional, but will be unable to further assist you. Thank you. - Mariano.

"Mariano is a self-starter and independent worker. His deep knowledge in immigration law and impressive English legal writing skills despite being a native Spanish speaker makes him stand out amongst the competition. I have had the fortune to train and work alongside Mariano as he learned all aspects of family bases/humanitarian immigration. His bedside manner in assisting and working on client matters is rare for a freelancer. I cannot say enough on his ability to collaborate with coworkers and other attorneys. He is highly organized and is able to met tight deadlines for both immigration court and U.S. federal agencies. I highly recommend Mariano for an immigration paralegal position. He has been an asset to my Firm."

"Mariano is professional, smart, experienced, and a true delight to work with. He is very knowledgeable about U.S. immigration law, and is always eager and willing to learn more. He is responsive and my clients enjoy the quality paralegal support that he provides them. He is truly bilingual in Spanish and English, and never misses a beat transitioning between both languages whether in writing or speaking. He has been an incredibly positive addition to my immigration practice, and I hope to continue working with him well into the future."

Testimonials

Endorsements from past clients

"I am writing this letter of recommendation on behalf of Mariano. There are several reasons that I believe that he would be an asset to any business or organization. First, Mariano has a strong work ethic and is trustworthy with confidential legal information. His level of professionalism is exemplar as noted by positive comments from my clients when they worked with him on certain matters. Second, as an attorney, I was impressed by his written and research skills. I usually gave him complex fact patterns and asked him to research specific country conditions and prepare declarations depending on the legal issues at stake in the particular matter. Mariano has been my "right arm" in preparing all of my immigration matters both in court and before US federal agencies."

"I hired Mariano to help us with the forms and documents that we needed to use virtually - both to create new documents as well as revise existing ones. I found him to be extremely flexible and very easy and professional to work with. I was very pleased with not only his job performance but his attitude in carrying out the different tasks. I would highly, highly recommend him and personally plan to use him again as our firm has needs for his expertise. "
