In 2009, Anne-Marie started Rábago Business & Tax Law, APC, and over the following seven years, she advised hundreds of small business owners on tax and legal compliance matters. For this work, she was named a San Diego Super Lawyers® Rising Star in 2016 and 2017. Anne-Marie is a Fellow of the American Bar Foundation and a Member of the American Bar Association (ABA). She serves on the Programs Board and Membership Board of the ABA GPSolo Division, as well as the Executive Committee of the Association for Continuing Legal Education (ACLEA).
