Morais Law, a woman-owned law firm specializing in U.S. immigration and nationality law, is pleased to announce it has received National Women’s Business Enterprise Certification (WBENC), validating that the practice is majority owned, controlled, operated and managed by a woman. Led by Managing Partner, Manuela Morais, the firm looks forward to sharing its experience in immigration-based matters with a broader swath of the business community while enhancing the services offered to existing clients through the valuable resources and training WBENC provides.
As the largest certifier of women-owned businesses in the U.S. and a leading advocate for women business owners and entrepreneurs, the WBENC mission is “to fuel economic growth globally by identifying, certifying, and facilitating the development of women-owned businesses.” Its rigorous evaluation process, which includes extensive documentation review and culminates in an on-site visit, has become a certification standard accepted by more than 1,000 corporations nationwide. WBENC is an advocate of diversity, recognizing its value in promoting innovation, opening doors, and creating partnerships that fuel the economy. This is at the core of its commitment to providing tools that help Women Business Enterprises (WBEs) navigate and succeed in today’s evolving business environment.
“This is another magnificent milestone for Morais Law ~ one that comes on the heels of welcoming our newest attorney and our firm re-branding late last year,” says Morais of the coveted certification. A board member of Women Owned Law, a national networking group for women-owned law and legal services firms, Morais goes on to add, “This is an exciting time for our practice, and for women entrepreneurs. We are very honored to be among the select group of WBEs. I look forward to the opportunities afforded by WBENC and providing support for other women in the pursuit of their professional success.”
