Maria Ximena Sussman received her B.S. in Political Science and Criminal Justice in 2004 from East Carolina University. In 2007, she pursued an MBA with an emphasis in Accounting at Winthrop University but was unable to finish due to the economic crash of 2008. After working as a litigation-certified paralegal for two prominent law firms in Charlotte, she decided to fulfill one of her childhood dreams and joined the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department as a police officer. After spending some years on patrol, she decided to fulfill another childhood dream, which was to one day become a lawyer.
Maria Ximena began her studies at Charlotte School of Law and after graduating from law school in 2014, she was admitted to the North Carolina Bar and the U.S. District Court for the Western District of North Carolina. Given her entrepreneurial spirit, she founded Sussman Law Firm, PLLC in 2015. Determined to finish what she had one day started, Maria Ximena completed her Master in Business Administration degree from Liberty University. Her affiliations include the North Carolina State Bar, North Carolina State Bar Association and Mecklenburg County Bar. She is a mentor as part of the Mecklenburg County Bar’s Linking Lawyers Program. In addition, she is a North Carolina Notary Public for the State of North Carolina and a proud member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association.
A native of Guatemala, Maria Ximena is fluent in English and Spanish. She came to the United States as a child and she has called the Queen City her home ever since. Maria Ximena’s love for helping people is evident in her background in public service and is also felt by every client in need. Maria Ximena is married, has four children and three bonus children. She enjoys reading, traveling, and spending time with family and friends.
