Her work is particularly focused on challenges to the adverse immigration consequences of criminal convictions, challenges to unlawful immigration detention, and upholding due process rights in immigration proceedings. Professor Anguiano also teaches in the area of post-conviction relief.

Professor Anguiano serves on the Amicus Committee of the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA), which was awarded with the AILA Jack Wasserman Memorial Award for excellence in litigation in the field of immigration law in 2023.
