Rosa Rodarte
Legal Assistant
My name is Rosa Rodarte, I am originally from Mexico, I entered the United States undocumented in November 1989, at the age of 16. The reason I immigrated to the United States was because my mother was already living here.
My mother was a beneficiary of the amnesty that President Ronald Regan granted to farmers in the 1980s. Thanks to that I benefited from the 245 (i) law, but I had to wait 16 years to be able to legalize my immigration status. For these reasons I understand the pain and suffering of immigrants and the needs to legalize their immigration status.
Through the years of my experience of working in the immigration field, knowing and feeling that satisfaction of being able to help immigrants to achieve legalization of their immigration status, or even to obtain a work permit is something very satisfactory and above all a dream come true.
I have been fortunate enough to work in the Immigration field for the past ten years as a legal assistant . Being employed for almost a decade at the same field given me the opportunity to work with clients from the beginning of their immigration case until they reach U.S. Citizenship. Through my years of work I have seen client’s reach citizenship through a spouse petition, parent petitions, Special Immigrant Juvenile Status, U-Visas, etc.
I am thankful for my personal experience of how long it can take to obtain legal status, because it helps me be compassionate with my clients because I have firsthand knowledge how frustrating it can be to wait years to obtain legal status.
As I have found joy in seeing so many immigrants reach U.S. Citizenship or some type of legal status, I would like to continue working in the immigration field and be able to help more immigrants reach their American Dream.
