Ingrid began her legal career as a criminal defense attorney in New York City, where she represented hundreds of clients in complex proceedings. Many of those cases involved immigrants facing serious consequences, including removal from the United States. That experience gave her a deep understanding of how immigration law intersects with real life outcomes, and it refined her ability to advocate effectively under pressure.
Her work today reflects that foundation. She approaches each case with precision and purpose, focusing not only on meeting legal requirements but on developing a strategy that supports the client’s broader goals.
Ingrid’s perspective is also shaped by personal experience. Having gone through the immigration process herself after moving to the United States from Brazil, she understands the stakes involved and the importance of clear, reliable guidance throughout the process.
At IBP Immigration Law, she works closely with her clients to develop tailored legal strategies aligned with long-term objectives. Her focus is not simply on submitting applications, but on helping clients build a path toward living and working in the United States with stability and direction.
She regularly advises on high-skilled and employment-based immigration matters, including:
- EB-1A Extraordinary Ability
- EB-2 National Interest Waiver
- O-1 Visas
- H-1B, L-1, TN, and E Visas
Ingrid also works with employers seeking strategic immigration solutions for hiring and retaining international talent, as well as individuals who prefer a more flexible approach through attorney petition review services.
Her practice is grounded in the core values reflected in the firm’s name. Integrity, benevolence, and professionalism. These principles guide how she approaches every case and every client relationship.
