About Constance
Constance Wannamaker built a legal foundation at the University of Maryland Francis King Carey School of Law, where she earned her Juris Doctor in 1999. Her education on the East Coast preceded a career that would centre on federal and immigration matters. She has combined courtroom work and appellate filings over the years, bringing a measured approach to each case.
She is admitted to practice in Texas and is also admitted to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. Those admissions shape the contours of her practice. The appellate credential allows her to take cases beyond a single trial court and to work on legal issues that require briefing and argument at higher levels.
Over time she has aligned herself with professional groups that match her casework. She holds current membership in American Immigration Lawyers, a professional organization for practitioners in that field. She has maintained contacts across the bar and among immigration practitioners to stay current on shifts in policy and procedure.
Her firm is C.R. Wannamaker Law, PLLC. At the firm she combines direct client work with the procedural demands of federal litigation. Working at a small firm setting, she handles intake, drafting and court appearances, and coordinates filings in both trial courts and appellate courts when cases require it.
Colleagues describe her as steady in the courtroom and methodical in preparation. She tends to take a practical view of disputes, aiming to sort legal issues from factual ones early in a matter. That approach helps shape litigation plans and keeps clients informed about likely timelines and outcomes.
Her work has included individual immigration petitions, responses to administrative decisions, and appellate briefs in federal court. She navigates statutory and administrative frameworks, and she brings that experience to matters that range from removal proceedings to appeals of agency determinations. She values clear communication with clients and emphasizes thorough document preparation.
Outside the courtroom she continues professional development through association activities and ongoing study of federal appellate trends. Her practice remains anchored in Texas and in matters that rise to the Fifth Circuit. Her current practice focuses on immigration and appellate matters.
