Why Tukwila's 'lawyer of miracles' shuttered her immigration firm

The massive, international, Tukwila-based law firm Luz Legal has shut down.

Yet rumors circled Lozano for years about how the firm operated. Now a lawsuit alleging misconduct is in the works and thousands of Lozano’s former clients are scrambling.

We’ll talk more about what could happen next with Nina Shapiro of the Seattle Times, along with a lawyer involved in the lawsuit and his client.
