About Us

Attorney J. Bradley Pace was first licensed to practice law in 1987, and has had a broad range of experience in state and federal courts. His first 12 years of practice were focused on business and personal injury litigation, and divorce. He has continued to develop these areas of expertise, and regularly networks and partners with other attorneys working in these practice areas.

In 1999, he began his experience in the complex and rapidly changing field of immigration law by serving as immigration legal counsel to a non-profit agency. In this capacity he provided immigration assistance to hundreds of refugees from war torn nations, and from other areas of the world facing crisis. Today he provides comprehensive legal services to individuals and families coming from around the world in search of their own American dream.

He has represented businesses, individuals, public employers, and non-profit agencies before the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services, Immigration Court, Board of Immigration Appeals and the U.S. Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals.
