Of Counsel
Attorney Valerie Cavitt is a born-and-bred Texas attorney. She received her BA in Mass Communication from Texas State before earning her law degree from Appalachian Law School in Virginia.

They also cite her empathy and communication as her strong suits.
Valerie focuses on practicing two areas of law: criminal defense and personal injury. As a defense attorney, she recognizes that sometimes, clients make mistakes.

Case Manager/Paralegal
Case Manager Kevin Sanchez was born in an immigrant family. His mother is from Honduras and his father is from Colombia. Kevin is a native Spanish speaker and is fluent in English.
His parents immigrated to the U.S. decades ago so he inherited the Latino culture and can thus easily connect with Hispanic clients who face the complexity of the U.S. immigration system and bear the emotional weight of going through such a long process. He understands the fear and challenges many immigrants have been facing. It is a brave move to leave everything behind and move to the U.S. to pursue a better opportunity for families. He is motivated to help them make their American dreams come true.
As a case manager at Springdale Law Group, Kevin has developed a deep interest in immigration law. He mainly focuses on family-based immigration, business immigration, VAWA, asylum, U-visa, and SIJ visas. He has helped immigrants united in the U.S., and helped entrepreneurs to expand their business to the U.S.
In addition, he has contributed his time to master family law and elder law. He aims to devote himself to help Hispanic families in terms of divorce disputes, child support, spousal maintenance, child custody, will, living trust, and elder law.
