Q: Why did you join Tahirih’s Pro Bono Network?
A: Being an ardent supporter of women’s equality and emancipation, I joined Tahirih's Pro Bono Network to be a part of team doing meaningful work in protecting courageous immigrant women who refuse to be victims of violence and creating a world where all women and girls enjoy equality and live in safety and with dignity.
Q: Share a highlight from a pro bono case with Tahirih.
A: My experience with a young girl from Pakistan has stuck with me. I cannot forget the smile on her face and the tears of joy in her eyes upon approval of her waiver of joint filing to remove conditions on her green card. Her traumatic marriage and fear of deportation made her a victim of increased anxiety, depression, and disassociation. With her U.S. permanent residency, she hopes to have a brighter future.
Q: How has your pro pono service impacted you?
A: My pro bono service with Tahirih not only gave me a great sense of achievement in making a significant impact in immigrant women's lives, but it also helped me gain experience, confidence, connections, and visibility both inside and outside my law firm.
