COO Paula Smith

Originally from Argentina, Paula immigrated to the United States in 1999, starting high school without speaking a word of English. Her early experience navigating a new language and culture along with her own personal immigration journey fueled a deep passion for helping others transform their lives through the legal system.

Paula brings over 11 years of dedicated experience to Vanderwall Immigration. Before joining the firm, she gained firsthand experience navigating complex immigration processes while helping her own family members obtain their residency. Having walked in her clients’ shoes, she brings unmatched empathy, resilience, and personal commitment to every case she touches.

Outside of work, Paula loves traveling and spending quality time with her husband and their son.
