Meet another important coalition member of the Reclaim Your Future campaign! This month, we\u2019re introducing you to Jamie Ibrahim, the deputy director of our partner organization, Southern Arizona Legal Aid, Inc. (SALA), a Tucson-based\u00a0 nonprofit law firm that provides free legal services to low-income persons.<\/p>\n

Jamie started her career as a legal aid attorney in 2006 in Jacksonville, Florida, before her appointment there as a General Magistrate presiding over family law cases. In 2021, she and her family decided to relocate to Tucson, where Jamie immediately looked for an opportunity to return to the work she missed.<\/p>\n

\u201cThankfully, SALA had an open position, and I\u2019ve been here ever since,\u201d Jamie says.
Jamie\u2019s first hearing as an attorney in Arizona, in fact, involved an expungement, which was ultimately successful. \u201cIt was fun being a lawyer again and obtaining a successful expungement for our very happy client,\u201d she says.<\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
