As a COO of Trow & Rahal, Linda Rahal guides nearly a dozen other staff members and attorneys to assist employees of corporate clients to get visas and green cards to work in the U.S. Her reputation within the legal community has led to selection by her associates for inclusion in various prestigious publications, including The Best Lawyers in America, Chambers USA, Washingtonian Magazine’s 'Top Lawyers', the International Who's Who of Business Lawyers (Corporate Immigration) and the Martindale-Hubbell Bar Register of Preeminent Lawyers, where Trow & Rahal is mentioned as a “very good, very creative firm”.

However, since opening the doors of Trow & Rahal in 1993, Linda is seeing a dramatic shift in the immigration laws. She says, “I have seen a dramatic shift in our immigration laws. I firmly believe that the U.S. Government is building an 'invisible fence' around our borders. In my opinion, this is not healthy for the fiscal future of the country.”
