Overview
- Alexandra Lozano voluntarily surrendered her Washington law license on May 26, ending the disciplinary hearing she faced and preceding the June closure of her firm.
- Multiple lawsuits and bar complaints accuse her practice of submitting humanitarian petitions that used fabricated domestic‑abuse or trafficking narratives and reproduced client signatures without proper consent.
- Former staffers say non‑attorneys in offices in Colombia, Mexico and Argentina prepared filings and were told to invent or exaggerate abuse stories to strengthen cases.
- The Washington State Bar says Lozano’s signature appears on more than 53,900 pending USCIS petitions, and USCIS’s fraud unit plus federal investigators are probing the filings while civil racketeering and malpractice suits proceed; no criminal charges have been announced.
- Clients report paying between $10,000 and $30,000 for services and some say improper filings led to denials or removal proceedings, a development that could complicate relief pathways for vulnerable immigrants who rely on VAWA and T‑visa claims.
