About Tsirina
Tsirina Goroshit practices immigration law in New York and in federal courts serving the Second Circuit. She has built a practice grounded in litigation and appellate work, representing individuals, families, and organizations in matters that reach beyond the immigration courts. Her career traces steady involvement in bar and professional groups that shape immigration practice in the region.
Goroshit joined the New York City Bar and the New York State Bar in 2003. Those early ties to the city and state bars situate her among practitioners who balance courtroom advocacy with professional engagement. She later joined the American Immigration Lawyers Association in 2008 and became a member of ASISTA in 2010. Her memberships include the New York State Trial Lawyers Association as well, reflecting an interest in litigation-oriented practice and trial procedure in immigration-related matters.
Over the years Goroshit has handled cases that require work in both administrative and federal settings. She appears in New York forums and before the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, handling briefs and oral argument when appeals or federal questions arise. That dual practice means she moves between detention hearings and appellate filings, and between client interviews and strategy sessions with co-counsel and experts.
Her work engages a range of immigration problems. Goroshit has represented clients on removal defense, asylum claims, family-based petitions, and humanitarian relief pathways. She also handles motions to reopen and appeals that press legal issues up through the circuit courts. Clients often face urgent timelines, and her practice involves preparing evidentiary records, drafting persuasive filings, and arguing matters at hearings and on appeal.
Colleagues and peers see Goroshit as a solicitor who integrates procedural rigor with case-level attention. She participates in professional forums and continuing legal education through her associations, contributing to discussions about practice developments and procedural changes. That involvement keeps her connected to developments in immigration law and to a network of practitioners who handle complex cases across the region.
Today Tsirina Goroshit continues to practice immigration law in New York and before the Second Circuit, representing clients in administrative and appellate proceedings and maintaining active memberships in AILA, ASISTA, the New York City Bar, and the New York State Bar.
