Details 
Attorney Meaders came to the U.S. in her twenties. Going through the immigration process herself has given her an in-depth understanding of what it is like for individuals and families navigating this process. Early in her legal career, Meaders recognized an overlap in immigration and criminal law. She saw, firsthand, how many immigrants with criminal charges in their pasts are left without benefits under U.S. immigration law. Because of this, she devotes her practice in Dallas, TX to both criminal defense and immigration to help her clients realize every opportunity and right provided to them by law.
Meaders represents clients in a variety of legal issues at both the state and federal level. Whether you are seeking a green card, or wish to pursue citizenship through naturalization, Meaders Law can help.

Representative Clients
- MY CLIENT WAS DETAINED THIS YEAR BY ICE BECAUSE OF A CONVICTION FOR DRUGS DATED BACK TO LATE 1990'S. SHE WAS GOING TO BE DEPORTED. MY CLIENT HIRED A PRIOR IMIGRATION ATTORNEY WHO ASK HER TO SIGN FOR THE VOLUNTARY DEPARTURE BECAUSE SHE HAD NO OTHER REMEDIES. WHEN THE FAMILY CAME TO ME, THEY WERE DEVASTATED. MY CLIENT WAS CONVICTED WHEN SHE WAS VERY YOUNG AND SINCE THEN SHE HAD BUILT A WONDERFUL FAMILY AND LIFE HERE IN THE UNITED STATES. I ADVICED THE FAMILY THAT THE ONLY WAY TO SAVE HER CASE WAS TO TRY TO GET THE PRIOR CRIMINAL CONVICTION VACATED. POST CONVICTION RELEIF IS VERY DIFFICULT. HOWEVER, I BUILT A VERY STRONG CASE FOR MY CASE AND WAS ABLE TO GET HER CONVICTION OVERTURNED. BECAUSE OF THIS OUTCOME IN HER CRIMINAL CASE i WAS ABLE TO GET ALL THE CHARGES IN IMMIGRATION DROPPED AND SHE WAS RELEASED AND REUNITED WITH HER FAMILY AND CHILDREN HERE IN THE UNITED STATES. SHE IS CURRENTLY WORKING TOWARDS BECOMING A UNITED STATES CITIZEN. , 2024
