An Amazing Lawyer
Attorney Ogor, represented my husband Omar in an immigration case. The case was not an easy one at all. I had tried to hired other lawyers and nobody wanted to take his case due to the difficulty. Attorney Ogor was the only one that gave me hope. She took on his case and got him out of immigration custody within a few months. We are soo pleased with her work and are amazed at what an amazing attorney she is. She knows the law very well and truly fights for her clients. We would 100% recommend her.

Immigration case
Attorney Okoye has applied thoroughness and professionalism to her work on my case. She goes out of her way to answers any questions or concerns within brief delay, and with clarity. For a service as delicate as legal representation, it has been relieving to be certain that my lawyer was serious, cared, and advised me properly. If you hire her, you will be in good hands!

What doesn't kill you makes your stronger
Indeed, The Above says it all. It all started In June or July 2014, I was referred to Attorney Olga, by a friend. I had a couple of lawyers, before. To cut the long story short, I hired Olga to assist me with my VAWA case which I was told it was never going to be possible. I never lost my sense of wonder. We met and went thru my case,and with no hesitation she told me that It was "Possible". I promised my self that I will.give faith a fighting chance, After meeting with Olga. She promised and made all the impossible seem easy. And, I promised my self that I will follow her advise, one at a time to acquire what I wanted. I felt the sense of TRUST and TRIUMPH and yes I believed that all her 'lines' would get me to the fruits of my struggles. We worked hand in hand, It was not Ann easy road, But with her persistence and professionalism, I never had any doubt in her work. Days went by,before I knew it, my "well organized" VAWA case was Approved with no bumps. Step 1 down!, One thing I realized is that she was not going to settle for the path of least resistance. As months went by, She pushed for an interview, which I got in 2015. It went very smooth, However we never heard from the USCIS office for another 2-3 years, but during all this time we teamed up really good and we were not selling out!! we inquired every single way possible to have my file brought up to review. Finally My Success doors opened up when my Green card was approved in 2018. After three years, early this year I did apply for my citizenship. And as Always I went in with Olga, to have my back protected. It literally took 3-5 minutes and I am a proud Citizen of America. If you had any doubt in Olga's Work, Just tighten up those loose nuts!. My wish is that one day she could team up with Our State representative, Massachusetts ( Elizabeth Warren) to run the state. Lol Good luck to all that are still struggling with your immigration struggles, I wish the best for you all. Trust in God!

Provides honest feedback about your immigration case and will fight for you
I first consulted Ogor Okoye in 2014, when I was working on my VAWA case. I've always found her to be frank in her assessment and, although I did not retain her to file my application, her feedback was helpful in guiding me through the process. I trust her assessment thus, I've recommended her to individuals dealing with there own challenging immigration case. When it came time for me to file for citizenship, having returned to live in Massachusetts, I gladly retained her services. She thoroughly prepared me for the interview process and it was a breeze. To anyone dealing with the immigration system, I highly recommend this skilled immigration attorney and she's quite personable too.
