200+ five-star reviews and counting! I am a licensed California attorney, doing remote work and I am excited to be offering my services as a freelance lawyer. I have an agency here on Upwork "Immigrant Law Center" to assist me in most cases. At fifteen years old, I was admitted to one of the most prestigiousLaw Schools in Brazil. After excelling in the Intensive Legal English program at UCSD, I passed the California Bar Exam on my first attempt. I practiced in American courts daily during 2019, mostly related to Criminal and Immigration Law. In 2020, I completed the Immigration Fundamentals Course offered by AILA University, which granted me with deep knowledge about the most common immigration matters. I’m currently pursuing my Master’s Degree in Transnational Migration Law at Università degli Studi di Perugia (Italy) and Universidade do Vale do Itajaí (Brazil). After a few years practicing and receiving training in the field of Immigration Law through AILA University in the United States, Daniel sought ways to fulfill the needs of his Immigration Law clients without measuring efforts and, this way, Clasen Immigration Law was launched. I have many strengths that will be an asset to your team: legal acumen, work ethic, dedication, and proficiency in four different languages: English, Portuguese, Spanish, and Italian. Although it is not required to have a lawyer to apply for a U.S. immigrant visa or Green Card, the complexity of the U.S. immigration system and U.S. immigration law can be overwhelming. Here are some of the main reasons to consider hiring an immigration lawyer: - Navigating the bureaucracy: Confusing forms, specific requirements, strict deadlines – an experienced attorney can guide you through the maze and avoid costly mistakes; - Exploring your options: Visas, naturalization and others – your attorney can identify the best path to achieving your immigration goals; - Gathering documentation: Knowing exactly what to gather, how to organize it, and ensuring its admissibility is crucial to the success of your application; - Complex cases: Criminal immigration situations, deportability, denied applications – a specialized attorney can build a strong defense and fight for your rights; - Deadlines are essential: Missing a deadline can mean delays, complications, and even denial of your visa. An attorney ensures that you meet all deadlines accurately; - English without barriers: If language is a concern, a Portuguese-speaking attorney can be your voice and ensure that your story and situation are understood; - Employers without complications: Hiring immigrants? An attorney can ensure legal compliance and protection for both parties; - Path to citizenship: Dream of becoming a U.S. citizen? An attorney can chart the most efficient route to achieving your goal; - Remote assistance: No need to leave home, ensuring convenience and efficiency. Investing in an immigration lawyer is investing in your future and your peace of mind. Don’t let the complexity of the system be an obstacle to achieving your dreams!

Navigating regulatory and legal terrain to make well-informed business decisions in a fast-paced environment can be a daunting task. Companies need to be pragmatic and strategic in how they balance their business growth needs with legal and regulatory risks. I help dynamic companies make effective decisions intelligently and quickly, while helping these companies strategically plan and execute for future growth. I'm skilled at strengthening high-growth technology companies through strategic planning, the development and negotiation of strong commercial agreements, proactive implementation of risk mitigation through policies and controls, and creative dispute resolution. Prior to my legal career, I spent four years in the securities brokerage industry where I analyzed the equities of publicly traded companies, identifying companies that could provide innovative products or services, sound financial management, and sustainable growth. At the same time, I earned an MBA the CFA designation. After working as a corporate and securities associate for one of the largest law firms in the Western U.S., I moved in-house with an international, publicly-traded software company where I was responsible for contract drafting and negotiation, employment law, SEC compliance, IP management, and corporate governance. After more than four years there, I moved to a Internet software startup holding company, where I created the legal department for, and served as General Counsel to, multiple technology startups. I continue to advise business owners and managers on legal risks and draft and negotiate contracts related to software, services, intellectual property, confidentiality, and employment in the U.S. and internationally.

I have expertise in real property title and zoning of all varieties, and was a real estate / corporate attorney for a decade, including development, leasing, water and mineral rights, corporate filings of every variety imaginable, and general business contracts. I can handle complicated projects at a high level, and manage ongoing projects such as corporate or real estate filings with the appropriate attention to detail while also being very fast. I can also help foreign persons or entities explore setting up companies in the US and in some cases can potentially act as a nominee director or officer. Finally, I can help with any number of litigation support projects be it one time projects or an ongoing case. Any projects that require professional-level polished writing (with or without accompanying research) are also in my wheelhouse. My undergraduate degree is in writing and I was an editor and writer for the college newspaper, and while in law school I was an articles editor of the Vanderbilt Law Review and my research paper was also selected for publication. In my professional career I have written numerous articles with a legal focus and also a number of white papers presented to local and state governments considering cannabis regulations. While I'm new to using this platform and pursuing specific scope contract projects like this, although I've been self-employed for 15+ years and had either business partners or consulting clients. I like the idea of doing more remote projects and pursuing more or less of them in any given week or month depending on how busy I am with other income pursuits. I'm also learning to love the idea of a more-or-less fully remote career where I can maximize my quality of life by not having my home tied directly to my place of work.
