“I had the great opportunity to work with Miki Matrician from approximately 2016 to 2018. Miki was a colleague as well as a supervising partner for a major team, overseeing the work of several attorneys, paralegals, and senior legal administrative staff. Miki brings together a unique combination of deep legal expertise, deft analysis and pragmatic application, and impeccable leadership and interpersonal acumen. She inspires respect from all team members and fosters a very professional and positive ethos that brings everyone together toward a common goal. Attorneys and paralegals working under her oversight or supervision receive valuable professional development and mentorship opportunities, as she values smart and hard-working team members and genuinely cares about professional growth and learning. Similarly, clients appreciate her meticulous yet business-conscious advice and come to rely upon her deeply for their business immigration legal needs. ”
