Angie D. Ayala

In this pro bono capacity, she provided legal assistance to lower-income residents, handling various immigration matters, including family-based cases, asylum, and u-visas. Her dedication extended to the Bette and Wylie Aitken Family Protection Clinic, where she served as a Student Attorney in the immigration department. Here, she focused on u-visas, specifically assisting women who were victims of domestic violence.

Before pursuing her Juris Doctorate, Ms. Ayala gained valuable experience as a legal assistant for four years. In this role, she managed case files involving family-based petitions, citizenship, DACA, and participated in USCIS interviews as a sworn interpreter.

Prior to joining Wilner & O’Reilly, Ms. Ayala honed her skills as an associate attorney at a civil litigation firm. Here, she expanded her research, analytical, and writing abilities, working on a range of legal documents, from demand letters and complaints to discovery motions and appellate briefs. Her experience in civil litigation serves as a valuable foundation that she now applies to the immigration arena.

Beyond the legal realm, Angie cherishes time spent with her family and finds enjoyment in running, reading, and exploring new cities. Her multifaceted background and commitment to public service make her a valuable asset to the Wilner & O’Reilly team and the clients she serves.
