Belkis Quiñones
Managing attorney
Leads the clinic, sits in on Saturday intakes and takes petitions from the first talk to the filing.
Belkis runs the clinic day to day. She likes the first conversation best, when someone who has been carrying a record for years learns what can actually be done. She explains the options in plain words, says early when something is not eligible, and keeps clients posted until the order is in hand.

How Belkis works with clients
She starts every case with the record itself, not with the story you think it tells. Many clients are surprised: a charge they were sure was gone is still showing, or something they dreaded turns out to be clearable.
Belkis keeps the plan short and in writing, and she calls before every deadline. If a case belongs with another lawyer, she says so and makes the introduction.
