Quiana Gilliam
Sr. Paralegal (USCIS)
Personal Experience
Since joining Gilliam Law in 2016, I have grown alongside the firm, working in nearly every role and gaining an understanding of both the legal process and the client experience. This hands-on experience has shaped my client-centered approach rooted in professionalism, compassion, and a genuine commitment to helping families navigate the immigration process.
Currently I am a second-year law student at the University of Illinois Chicago School of Law. I earned a bachelor's degree in Political Science from DePaul University in 2023, along with minors in Spanish and African and Black Diaspora Studies. This academic foundation, combined with years of experience at Gilliam Law, has strengthened a passion for immigration advocacy and a commitment to helping families build secure futures together.
