About Carolina Siegert

I think of legal representation as a form of personal accompaniment; it is like embarking on a difficult journey with your client, unable to confirm the destination, but providing guidance and companionship along the way. During my practice, I always felt like that accompaniment was just as important as the legal representation itself, because without it, the representation was likely to fail. For me, it was a way of supporting another human being, validating that person\'s experience, sharing that person\'s existence, and sharing that person\'s story. Because at the end of the day, your client will remember how much you made him or her feel, just as much the outcome of the case.\" Meredith Linsky is the Director of the ABA Commission on Immigration.
