The firm focuses on a range of family law matters, including divorce, child custody, and adoption, as well as immigration issues such as visa applications and deportation defense. Located in the heart of Austin, the firm serves clients throughout the region with a commitment to understanding their unique circumstances. She earned her J.D. from St.
Mary’s University School of Law in 2003. Prior to that, she obtained a B.S.W. in Social Work from the University of Texas at Austin in 1997. This educational background provides her with a solid foundation for understanding the emotional and social dynamics involved in family law cases. During her time in law school, she developed a keen interest in advocating for families and individuals navigating complex legal challenges. Most of her caseload involves family law issues, where she guides clients through the details of legal proceedings. Cases typically range from initial consultations to final hearings, requiring her to navigate both the legal system and the personal aspects of her clients' lives.
In addition to family law, she handles immigration matters, assisting clients with applications for citizenship, green cards, and other immigration benefits. Her dual focus allows her to serve clients, addressing their legal needs comprehensively. Before founding Ponce Law Office, she worked as a staff lawyer, gaining inexperience in both family and immigration law. In 2006, she took on the role of managing lawyer, where she developed her skills in case management and client relations. Her practical experience complements her academic training. This lets the attorney approach cases with both legal expertise and empathy. Griselda is actively involved in several professional associations, including the American Immigration Lawyers Association and the Bernardo Kohler Center.
These memberships help her stay informed about the latest developments in immigration law and family law, ensuring that her clients receive the most current and effective legal representation. She is dedicated to advocating for her clients' rights and providing them with the support they need during difficult periods. In her practice, Griselda emphasizes the importance of communication and transparency.

This approach fosters trust and allows her to build strong relationships with those she represents. As she continues to grow her practice, she remains committed to serving the Austin community with integrity and dedication.
