Hema Sarangapani Attorney at Law ~ Abogada 11 Green Street Jamaica Plain, MA 02130 p. 617-435-8005 ~ hs@hemalaw.com |
| About Me I received my JD from Northeastern University School of Law in 2005 and a BA in English Literature and Women's Studies in 2000 from the University of Pennsylvania. I have advocated on behalf of survivors of violence for over ten years and bring to my work a commitment to advancing the legal and social rights of women, people of color, and LGBT, immigrant, and other marginalized communities through advocacy that is grounded in an anti-oppression framework. I am a member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association, the Boston Bar Association, the MLGBA, the Women's Bar Association, and the National Lawyers Guild. I serve on the Board of Directors of MataHari: Eye of the Day, sit on the Massachusetts GLBT Domestic Violence Coalition, and am involved with The Network/La Red. I am admitted to the Massachusetts Bar. Prior to opening a private practice, I was a Staff Attorney at Greater Boston Legal Services primarily working with immigrant survivors of domestic violence to access relief under the Violence Against Women Act. |
