On Behalf of | Feb 1, 2021 | Firm News

We are pleased to announce that our Senior Associate, Anita Mukherji, has been approved as a Certified Specialist in Immigration and Nationality Law by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization! Anita has been licensed in California since 2014 and has been with Bean, Lloyd, Mukherji, & Taylor since 2017. According to the California State Bar, “The State Bar certifies attorneys as specialists who have gone beyond the standard licensing requirements.” To obtain certification in immigration law, attorneys must have been practicing in the field for at least five years, pass a daylong examination, demonstrate comprehensive experience with diverse case types, complete continuing education in various subfields of immigration, and provide favorable evaluations by other attorneys in the field.

Partner Jesse Lloyd has been a Certified Specialist in Immigration and Nationality Law since 2011 and Angela Bean was a Certified Specialist for many years until choosing not to renew her certification due to her semi-retirement.

Congratulations to Anita for achieving this honor!
