Biography

Mary Sirmans, an immigration attorney, is a partner at Amaryllis Law. A native of south Georgia, she attended Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College in Tifton, Georgia, and majored in politics and modern cultures. Mary grew up in a small, rural area in Georgia and realized over time that for immigrants in that community good local representation was hard to come by; this encouraged her to pursue immigration law while in law school. She obtained a Juris Doctorate from Liberty University School of Law in 2021. Mary spearheads Amaryllis Law’s victim visas and also works in family- and marriage-based areas; she specializes in removal and deportation defense.
