The Department of Health and Human Services is hiring Burke Law Group, a firm founded by a former Trump administration official who does not appear to have extensive experience in immigration law or work with unaccompanied minors. Burke Law Group will “provide legal orientation, legal consultation and attorney-of-record representation services” to children in the care of the Office of Refugee Resettlement, according to the agreement. The firm’s founder and managing partner Marcella Burke previously worked as deputy solicitor and senior counsel at the Department of the Interior and as deputy general counsel at the Environmental Protection Agency during the first Trump administration. The contract with Burke’s firm, which was first reported by NOTUS, is not expected to begin until August 15. “More than 20,000 unaccompanied children are waiting for a real solution — one that comes with experienced immigration attorneys who will do what the law calls for and stand up for their rights.”
