Get to know Attorney Maria Roman
More than an Immigration Attorney
As an immigrant and the daughter of immigrants, I understand firsthand the challenges, hopes, and sacrifices that many families face while navigating the immigration system. My own experience inspired me to dedicate my career to helping individuals seeking safety, stability, and new opportunities in this country.
Furthermore, as a breast cancer survivor, I learned the value of resilience, perseverance, and faith during the most difficult times. Today, I bring that same strength and compassion to every case and every client who places their trust in me.
I earned a Bachelor’s degree in International Relations from Northern Illinois University (NIU) and a Juris Doctor (J.D.) from the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC). I am also an active member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA), the Hispanic Lawyers Association of Illinois (HLAI), and the American Bar Association (ABA).

We offer services to represent individuals in immigration court during deportation or removal proceedings. These cases require a prompt response and a solid legal strategy.
Due to the nature of these cases and the time they demand, my availability to accept new court matters may be limited. If you have a court date or believe you may be facing deportation proceedings, we recommend scheduling a legal consultation with our office as soon as possible.
