Arturo Jiménez grew up in Denver, Colorado, where he still lives and works. Arturo is a bilingual lawyer who has practiced federal immigration law since 1998. His humanitarian practice has represented thousands of individuals in Colorado and other States. Arturo's law office helps unify families through spouse petitions, family immigration, naturalization, Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), visas for victims and deportation defense in immigration court. Most of all, they seek to support the humanitarian rights of all individuals with an emphasis on immigrant children. In 2019, he wrote a book called “Dreamers Nightmare: The U.S. War On Immigrant Latinx Children,” where he uses his experiences with clients and at the border to describe how US immigration policy has terrorized immigrant children for decades.
Arturo also served on the Denver Public Schools Board of Education from 2007 until 2015. He is happily married to his wife Angelina and is the proud father of three children, Metzli, Leonor, and Citlamina.
