Staff Attorney

Northwest Workers' Justice Project

Bonnie Allen-Sailer (she/her/ella) practices employment and occasionally immigration law. She is a passionate advocate for immigrant workers and is working to combat the particular barriers faced by those workers in building power and accessing justice. After several years of working in direct service in various anti-poverty contexts, her frustration with the upstream factors causing people to struggle led her to attend law school. At NWJP, she provides direct legal services for low-wage workers and engages in policy work around workers' rights and access to justice issues. She loves spreadsheets.
