Why Laura Devine deserves it

Nominated for

The Trailblazer Award for a Legal Innovator

Presented to an immigration attorney who is reimagining what’s possible — whether through technology, novel legal strategy, or a bold new approach to serving clients. This award honors the innovators who aren’t just keeping up with change, they’re creating it.

After building immigration practices at PwC and Eversheds Sutherland, Laura Devine saw a gap and in 2003 she set about filling it herself. What grew from that decision is a 60-person, London and New York firm. She is a member of ILPA, AILA, the New York State Bar, and the British Association of Women Entrepreneurs, and regularly speaks on immigration, law firm management, and women in business.
