If we haven’t met yet, I’d like to introduce myself.
My name is Angelica Pichardo. I am an immigration attorney licensed in Colorado, based in Florida, and authorized to practice U.S. immigration law in all 50 states.
During law school, I participated in my school’s Children’s Advocacy Clinic, where I advocated for children exiting the foster care system and for youth involved in delinquency matters. I worked with the Immigration and Farmworker Project, assisting children present in the United States without parents, as well as families navigating immigration issues. I also had the privilege of working at the Public Defender’s Office, advocating for indigent clients.
During my second year of law school, I participated in an Alternative Spring Break program in Apopka, Florida, where we were hosted by the Farmworkers’ Association of Florida.
That week opened my eyes.
We were given firsthand knowledge of the struggles uniquely facing immigrant farmworkers, and we observed the back-breaking work they do to keep us fed. I woke up sore after one day in the fields, knowing many endure that labor up to seven days a week while supporting families and navigating an array of complexities, some immigration-related, others health-related, and others the everyday stressors we often do not discuss.
It was also the first time I truly understood how chaotic and unforgiving the U.S. immigration system can be. I remember feeling completely dumbfounded by some of the laws that were preventing people from fixing their status.
This was not a reality I or those closest to me had faced. It was one I only came to understand as a young adult.
My parents immigrated to the United States, my mom from Colombia as a teenager and my dad from the Dominican Republic as a young adult. Growing up, I did not fully grasp what immigration law meant for families like mine. That week changed that.
Today, I represent individuals and families across the country in immigration matters. I genuinely love the work I do, and I have a deep respect for the communities I serve. I cannot promise a particular outcome, but I can promise that you will be treated with preparation, honesty, and care.
I am grateful to continue building a practice rooted in those values. 🩵
