Biography

Marcos Cabanas is an experienced attorney who supports our immigration clients through obstacles in the asylum process, to overseeing USCIS interviews, to providing trusted legal counsel throughout every step on the path toward citizenship. He also routinely represents our clients in criminal and other civil matters. 

With a straightforward yet compassionate approach, he excels in drafting, revising and filing applications on behalf of foreign nationals to secure Waivers, Employment Authorization Documents, and Temporary Protected Status.

Before Monzon, Guerra & Chipman, Marcos was an associate attorney at an immigration law firm that primarily focused on employment immigration matters. There, he consulted foreign nationals and company representatives on immigration matters; created petitions for national and international technology corporations; assisted clients in navigating PERM labor certifications; and mentored junior staff in immigration law procedures, case management and client communications.

Marcos earned his J.D. from the Creighton University School of Law following a B.A. in criminal justice with a focus in psychology from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
