Jill Sheldon is the Southeast Field Office Attorney for the Catholic Legal Immigration Network, Inc. (CLINIC) in Miami. She conducts trainings for CLINIC
in various parts of the country with a focus on issues relating to the
immigration consequences of criminal convictions and relief from removal. She also
provides assistance to CLINIC affiliates throughout her region and represents
immigrants in immigration court and before the Board of Immigration Appeals.
Ms. Sheldon has also worked as a CLINIC detention attorney in Villanova,
Pennsylvania, representing and assisting detained immigrants in various Pennsylvania
jails. She previously worked for two years as the CLINIC detention attorney
in Miami through the Georgetown University Law Center/Jesuit Refugee Service
Fellowship. Ms. Sheldon received her A.B. from Columbia University and her
J.D. from the Georgetown University Law Center.
The CLINIC network is quite possibly the largest immigration law service provider in the world. The CLINIC network employs about 600 attorneys and paralegals in over 250 offices and represents more than 100,000 immigrants each year. This large volume of cases gives CLINIC a perspective considerably broader than immigration law practices in the areas of immigration law typically handled by CLINIC, even esoteric cases become routine with a large volume. This broad perspective and large volume has resulted in CLINIC's developing tried-and-true methods of handling many types of immigration matters. ILW.COM is transforming CLINIC's internal training manuals into book form to enable immigration practitioners to learn from CLINIC's experience and knowledge and make available CLINIC's expertise to law firms serving immigrant communities.
