| | Biography: | Attorney Andrea R. Reid is a 2001 graduate of Massachusetts School of Law. She is also an alumnus of Rider University, where she earned her BA in Philosophy in 1994. Attorney Reid has been practicing as an Immigration Law and Family Law attorney for over ten years. Her career includes representing clients successfully challenging charges of removability and deportability in Immigration Courts through the United States, and with the Board of Immigration Appeals; with their applications for Immigration benefits before United States Citizenship and Immigration Services ("CIS"), and the US Embassy and Consulates. As born native of Jamaica and Naturalized citizen of the United States, Attorney Reid is uniquely qualified to assist foreign nationals seeking to gain immigration benefits or to immigrate to the United States. Her personal experience as an immigrant, along with that of most of her relatives, was the catalyst for pursing a legal career as an Immigration Defense litigator. "Knowing what it's like to be separated from my mother for six years during my childhood, it's the kind of experience one never forgets. So when a client says to me 'I haven't been back home or seen my child(ren) in 5, 10 or 20 years,' I personally know the emotional hardship they are going through. So when they place their fate in me, I can't abuse that." Attorney Reid is a partner at REID & GAUDET Law Group, LLP, with offices in Springfield and Leominster Massachusetts.
