About
Kyle K. Morishita, a legal professional primarily based in San Francisco, California, stocks his inspiring journey of fighting for social justice and advocating for racial fairness and mental health.
During World War II, the U.S. government incarcerated my U.S. citizen grandparents because of their Japanese ancestry. This history and serving as my grandfather's caretaker inspired me to fight for social justice.
I clerked for Cotchett, Pitre & McCarthy, LLP and the Honorable Kristen L. Mix of the U.S. District Court. As an immigration legal professional, I controlled an office and assisted over 1,000 clients in deportation and elimination court cases. I acquired honors from Chambers and Partners, Best Lawyers, and Super Lawyers.
I finished a ten-day silent meditation direction and coached a basketball team. I communicate at conferences and universities concerning racial fairness and intellectual fitness. I am a former president of Las Vegas Buddhist Sangha, a trustee for the Nevada Bar Foundation, and my children's second favourite parent.
