Caitlyn Wallace, j.d.

Caitlyn Wallace (she/ella) joined LCYC in March 2026 as an attorney on the Immigrant Youth Team, where she represents children and young people in their immigration proceedings and related matters. Her work focuses on providing trauma-informed, client-centered legal services, and she is committed to helping each client feel heard, respected, and empowered. 

Caitlyn began her legal career in Los Angeles, California as a 2023 Immigrant Justice Corps Fellow, where she helped unaccompanied minors navigate the complex immigration system and developed her practice in humanitarian immigration relief. Prior to law school she worked at a children’s home in Bolivia—an experience that motivated her to become an attorney for youth. Caitlyn earned her J.D. from the University of Denver Sturm College of Law and holds a dual B.A. in International and Latin American Studies with a minor in Spanish from Miami University of Ohio. She is fluent in Spanish.

In her spare time, Caitlyn enjoys skiing, reading, and exploring her new home state of Washington.
