Nene Tesija Pocedic, DOJ Accredited Representative
Nene Tesija Pocedic is an accredited representative by the Department for Justice. She started her work with refugees and immigrants more than 40 years ago in February 1980, when as newly accredited Representative she assisted them not only with the legal immigrant issues but with the challenges facing all the new arrivals to this country.
Over the years Nene has represented clients before the USCIS (INS), Asylum Office as well as the Immigration Court. This gave her an opportunity to work in the wide range of immigration law, including asylum, family reunification, consular processing and citizenship. She earned by BA in Psychology from the University of Michigan-Flint and her Masters in Social Work from Wayne State University. She puts emphasis with her clients since she too came to this country as an immigrant and can respect the challenges they need to overcome. She is fluent in Croatian language.
