Margaret Born is an experienced manager and paralegal who leverages her diverse professional and personal experiences to support the firm’s clients. She holds a Master’s Degree in International Security and Conflict from Dublin City University, where she studied under the prestigious banner of the US-Ireland Alliance’s Mitchell Fellowship and graduated with First Class Honors. As an undergraduate, she completed degrees in both Comparative Cultures and Politics as well as Arabic.
Originally from Mozambique, Margaret is fluent in French and Portuguese. She grew up in the midst of a country recovering from decades of conflict, and witnessed both the enduring scars left by violence as well as the resilience of the people around her. This background led her to begin her career in Immigration Law, where she specialized in interviewing victims of violence or discrimination and building their applications for asylum.
During this work, she was struck by the intersection of vulnerability between immigration and labor. Hoping to combat the exploitation she had witnessed, she transitioned to Employment Law, bringing with her a global background that allowed her to engage with diverse communities and bridge cultural divides. A natural leader, she is relentlessly committed to raising up those around her, and has worked alongside union representatives to organize in pursuit of workers’ rights.
Margaret has organized high-profile class actions representing thousands of workers, and guided the teams litigating them. She brings a high level of organizational efficiency with her passion for protecting the rights of marginalized workers.
