About Shilpa
Shilpa Malik earned an LL.M. from New York University School of Law in 2007. She completed advanced legal study in a program known for its international and comparative law offerings. The degree came early in her professional timeline and helped shape a practice that would center on immigration and federal litigation.
After finishing her graduate studies, Malik joined professional associations that align with immigration practice. She has been a member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association since 2007. She also holds membership in the New York County Lawyers Association, a relationship that began in 2008 and continues to the present. Those memberships have given her access to continuing education and a network of colleagues across the field.
By 2011 Malik was serving as Managing Lawyer at VisaNation Law Group PLLC. Her role has combined casework with firm responsibilities. She oversees case strategy and client intake while also handling appellate filings. Colleagues describe her work rhythm as methodical; she tends to break large matters into discrete steps and keep clients informed along the way.
Malik is admitted to practice in New York and before several federal courts. Her admissions include the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, the Eleventh Circuit, and the Federal Circuit. That range of admissions allows her to take cases that move beyond district court into appellate review. She handles petitions, appeals, and related federal filings that require experience in both immigration statutes and appellate procedure.
Her day-to-day practice involves representing individuals, families, and businesses on immigration matters that sometimes intersect with federal litigation. She prepares briefs, manages administrative appeals, and coordinates filings across multiple jurisdictions when cases demand it. The record shows steady involvement in agency proceedings as well as appellate dockets. She currently practices immigration law at VisaNation Law Group PLLC, representing clients in immigration and federal appellate matters.
