About Paul
Paul Marinov earned his Juris Doctor from Chicago-Kent College of Law at the Illinois Institute of Technology, completing his degree in 2004. He moved into practice soon after law school. Early career choices put him in the kind of law office where courtroom and client work intersect closely.
He began his legal career in 2004 at Anvaripour & Associates. There he took on casework that exposed him to client intake, filings, and the procedural demands of immigration matters. After a few years of building that practical foundation, he launched his own firm in 2007. The move to found a small practice reflected a desire to handle cases from start to finish and to shape a practice around the clients he served.
Marinov is admitted to practice in both California and Illinois. That bi-state standing has allowed him to work on matters that cross regional lines and to advise clients with ties to both states. He has been a member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association since 2006, maintaining a professional connection to colleagues who practice immigration law and to developments in federal immigration policy.
The arc of his career shows steady movement from associate-level responsibilities to the administrative and strategic obligations of running a firm. Founding the Law Offices of Paul Marinov, P.C. required handling the business side of law as well as continued client representation. Managing a small firm has meant overseeing case strategy, client communications, and the practical tasks that keep a law office operating.
Colleagues and clients describe him as practical and direct in how he handles cases. He applies procedural knowledge gained early on to the details of filings and deadlines. He is also the point person for intake and client consultation at his firm, often taking the first call and mapping out next steps for potential clients.
Outside of firm operations, Marinov stays connected to the profession through professional association membership and regular engagement with immigration law developments. His membership in the American Immigration Lawyers Association, which dates to 2006, signals ongoing interest in federal immigration practice and policy. He works from his firm, the Law Offices of Paul Marinov, P.C., where he practices law and oversees the firm’s operations.
He practices and represents clients primarily in immigration matters and related proceedings.
