Attorney Michelle Alonzo joined Badmus Law Firm in 2010. Prior to joining our firm, Ms. Alonzo worked at a Dallas area firm focusing on deportation defense and appeals before the Board of Immigration Appeals, as well as preparing waivers for clients proceeding before the U. S. consulates abroad for their immigrant visas. She also practiced immigration law in Houston, Texas, where she assisted clients with family-based immigration, deportation cases and naturalization.
Ms. Alonzo graduated in the first class of the Marianist Leadership Program at St. Mary’s University and was an active intern and volunteer at the university’s Service Learning Center throughout her undergraduate career. It was through one of the volunteer engagements at St. Mary’s School of Law Center for Legal and Social Justice where Ms. Alonzo was first exposed to immigration law, translating for indigent Spanish-speaking persons meeting with their student attorneys.
During law school, Michelle was an Alternative Dispute Resolution Advocate and Regional Finalist in 2006, a proud member of the STCL Hispanic Law Student Association. Ms. Alonzo was also a scholarship recipient. While in law school, Michelle found her passion in the area of immigration law and both worked and clerked for various immigration law firms in the Houston area. Ms. Alonzo is fluent in Spanish.
