Jennie Diaz, Founding Partner | Immigration & Personal Injury Attorney, Coral Gables, FL
Jennie Diaz doesn’t just know immigration law. She grew up inside it.
The daughter of Cuban immigrants, Jennie watched her parents and the families around them build a life in a country whose legal system was never designed to be understood by the people it affects most. That is the reason she became a lawyer, and it is the reason she practices the way she does: in plain language, in both English and Spanish, with the patience that the hardest moments of a person’s life deserve.
Jennie is a founding partner at the Law Office of Diaz & Núñez Elorza, P.A., a Coral Gables immigration and personal injury law firm serving clients throughout Miami-Dade County and South Florida, and, in immigration matters, across the United States. She has been licensed to practice in Florida since 2015.
