At The Meza Law Firm, PLLC, we believe in the power of language to help people in need. As a bilingual law firm focused on representing immigrants, we know just how challenging it can be to navigate a legal system behind a language barrier. Bilingual lawyers address a unique need in our society, advocating for people who would otherwise struggle to speak up for themselves.We want to see more bilingual legal professionals in the field doing good work. In service of that ideal, we are opening the Bridging the Divide Scholarship for current or upcoming law students who are fluent in more than one language. We will award $1,000 to the winner of this scholarship for his or her continuing legal studies.
