About Tony
Tony Tran earned his law degree from the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa William S. Richardson School of Law in 2004. He arrived on the professional scene equipped with a local legal education and has spent his career working within the Hawaiian legal community and federal courts. His academic years included the standard mix of clinic work and coursework that prepared him for litigation and administrative practice in immigration and related fields.
After law school, Tran built his practice in Hawaii. He is admitted to practice in the State of Hawaii and before the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. He joined professional circles early, holding membership in the Hawaii State Bar Association since 2007. By 2009 he had taken on a leadership role in the local chapter of the American Immigration Lawyers Association, serving as chapter secretary.
Tran became a partner in 2010 at The Law Office of Tony Tran, LLLC. That role reflects more than a title; it marks his movement into a practice where he manages client matters, oversees case strategy and handles filings at both the state and federal level. His work has involved a mix of individual client representation and administrative advocacy before agencies and tribunals that oversee immigration matters.
A central thread in Tran’s career is immigration law. His long-standing involvement with the American Immigration Lawyers Association signals an ongoing engagement with the issues that frequently arise for immigrants, families and businesses. He represents clients in district-level matters and in appeals brought to the Ninth Circuit, and he addresses the procedural and substantive challenges that often accompany immigration cases in Hawaii.
Professional memberships have been a steady presence in his career. The Hawaii State Bar Association lists him as a member from 2007 to the present, and his role as secretary for the AILA Hawaii Chapter, held since 2009, places him among local practitioners who work on policy updates, continuing legal education and peer coordination. Those activities keep him connected to changes in regulation and case law that affect his clients.
Tran’s practice is rooted in the Hawaiian legal landscape but extends to federal appellate work through his Ninth Circuit admission. He maintains an office under The Law Office of Tony Tran, LLLC and continues to handle immigration matters and related federal and state proceedings in Hawaii.
