Rebecca N. Desnoyers

Rebecca’s experience in the area of immigration law began almost 20 years ago in 2001 as a paralegal at a nationally recognized law firm in San Francisco, California. Since then, she has developed a wide range of substantive and practical knowledge in the field of immigration law through various progressive roles, including law clerk and certified student attorney during law school, associate attorney following law school, and now as Special Counsel at NJL. Rebecca’s practice focuses primarily on business immigration, working with and advising employers on employer-sponsored nonimmigrant (H, L, O, TN, E) and immigrant petition matters. She has a particular passion and acumen for this area in light of her sharp attention to detail, strength in writing, and strong interest in assisting employers and individuals with traversing the complexities of the immigration system and achieving their objectives. Rebecca has worked with clients in a wide range of industries, including healthcare, engineering, marketing and advertising, tourism, retail, and others.

Rebecca received her J.D. from William Mitchell College of Law in 2009, a B.A. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1999, and is licensed to practice in the State of Minnesota. She is a member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA).  Rebecca has studied abroad in the Dominican Republic and Costa Rica, and is fluent in Spanish.
