Welcome to Bourassa Law Group! My name is Isabella Ferreira, and I’m proud to be part of this dynamic team. I began my journey with the firm as a receptionist and have since transitioned to a role as a legal assistant.
My professional growth at Bourassa Law Group has been a testament to my commitment and dedication. Drawing on my experience, I’ve cultivated strong communication skills, a solid work ethic, and a knack for creative problem-solving.
Beyond the legal world, my life has been enriched by my passion for soccer. Having played the sport for 16 years, I’ve learned the value of teamwork and effective communication—traits that seamlessly integrate into my professional life.
Outside of work, I find joy in spending time with my loved ones and indulging in the pleasures of good food. Whether it’s exploring new restaurants or sharing a home-cooked meal, these moments are the essence of what makes life beautiful.
Photography is another love of mine, particularly film photography. Capturing moments through the lens allows me to express creativity and appreciate the artistry in everyday life.
Thank you for allowing me to share a glimpse of who I am. I’m excited to contribute my skills and experiences to the success of Bourassa Law Group and look forward to serving our clients with dedication and passion.
