About Linda Chan Attreed

I was born and raised in Manhattan’s Chinatown to immigrant parents from China. Growing up in an immigrant community shaped how I see the world and gave me an early appreciation for the courage, ambition, and resilience it takes to build a life in a new country.

From an early age, I saw how language barriers, unfamiliar systems, and lack of representation could make even simple interactions feel overwhelming – and how powerful it was when someone stepped in to advocate on behalf of others.

As a child, I loved to write and was drawn to journalism because I wanted to amplify people’s voices and understand their experiences. That interest in storytelling and advocacy ultimately led me to law school, where I discovered immigration law.

I realized that immigration law allows me to combine both passions: advocating for individuals and businesses while telling their stories to government agencies like USCIS, and helping them build meaningful lives and futures in the United States.
