About Yvanne M
Yvanne M Vaughn earned her law degree from Suffolk University Law School in 2012. She entered the legal profession shortly after graduating and built experience in immigration practice over the following decade. Her background ties classroom training to hands-on work in both large and smaller firm settings.
Her early professional record includes a role as a staff lawyer at Berry Appleman and Leiden in 2019. That position placed her in a fast-moving firm environment handling client matters across varied immigration issues. In 2020 she served as an associate lawyer at Erickson Immigration Group, where she continued to work on immigration cases and employer-related immigration services.
Those positions shaped the practical side of her career. At Berry Appleman and Leiden she gained exposure to firm systems and multi-layered case management. At Erickson Immigration Group she worked in an associate capacity, taking on files and client communications that required detailed attention to statutes and filing deadlines. The work offered experience in interaction with agencies and in coordinating documentation for clients.
Over time Vaughn moved toward running her own practice. She now operates under the name YMV Law. That shift brought a change in pace. Instead of staff roles inside larger teams, she now handles the full arc of client work, from initial intake to case resolution. The transition also meant taking on administrative and practice-management responsibilities common to small-firm life.
Colleagues describe her as pragmatic and organized. Clients have relied on her for clear explanations of their options and the steps involved in their cases. Her Massachusetts license places her in a state with a diverse population and a steady demand for immigration-related counsel.
Vaughn’s career shows a path from law school through positions at established immigration firms to an independent practice. She has combined time in structured, high-volume firms with time managing cases in a smaller office. She currently practices at YMV Law in Massachusetts and focuses on immigration matters.
