Meet the Founders
LIHA was established by two accomplished attorneys with complementary strengths and a shared commitment to delivering premier federal and immigration representation. Together, they bring decades of courtroom experience, firm leadership, and national recognition to clients navigating complex legal challenges.
Sara Saba, Esq
Co-Founder & Managing Attorney
Sara Saba is a trial-proven federal litigator and seasoned law firm leader, practicing since 2004. She brings more than two decades of courtroom experience and strategic law firm management to her role as Co-Founder and Managing Attorney of LIHA. While her personal practice background lies primarily in federal civil litigation, Ms. Saba oversees LIHA’s operations with precision and vision, ensuring that every client benefits from the firm’s rigorous standards of advocacy and care.
Nera Shefer, Esq.
Co-Founder & Legal Strategy Director
Nera Shefer is a nationally recognized immigration attorney and seasoned law firm leader, practicing since 2004. She brings more than two decades of removal defense, federal practice, appellate advocacy, and leadership to her role at LIHA. Widely regarded as a pioneer in immigrant rights, Ms. Shefer is best known for her landmark representation of the Peláez sisters in 2012, a case that helped shape the national conversation around Dreamers and Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA).
