Angel Robles has been an advocate for Latinos for nearly a decade. An immigrant himself, Angel is acutely aware of the challenges Hispanics face in adapting to the laws and customs of the United States. He has dedicated his career to easing the transition of his fellow Latinos by making important information available, interesting and understandable to the lay person.

A year after migrating to the U.S., he co-founded what would become North Carolina 's largest Spanish-language newspaper, La Conexión. While running the newspaper, he also served on the Political Participation Committee of the North Carolina Governor's Advisory Council on Latino Issues and the Journal of Minority Issues and Economic Development.

Angel later moved to Washington , D.C. to attend the Howard University School of Law, where he focused his course study on civil rights and immigrants' legal barriers. While at Howard he continued his advocacy work, furnishing his time to the Legal Aid Bureau of Maryland as a liaison to the Latino community and helping to write the Spanish-language version of the Constitution for the Maryland Latino Coalition for Justice.

During his second year of law school, Angel began work on what would become InterMedia Publishing's first book, Guía y Formularios de Inmigración (Immigration Guide and Forms). After graduation he also authored other books in InterMedia's Simple Books series.

Most recently, Angel was living in Texas, where he worked as an Attorney and Director of the Immigration Clinic of Casa de Proyecto Libertad. Angel is a member of the Maryland State Bar, the American Bar Association, the National Lawyers Guild, the American Immigration Lawyers Association, and the Association of Trial Layers of America.
