Background

Eirene N. Salvi is a Partner at Salvi, Schostok & Pritchard P.C. in Chicago, where she joined in 2016 and was named Partner in 2025.

During law school, she externed at the National Immigrant Justice Center, successfully filing humanitarian parole applications for human rights violation victims from the Democratic Republic of Congo.
