I have availed Gabriela's services for the processing of my H1-B visa and green card. She understands individual case very quickly, and suggests the right plan of action and timelines. She is very knowledgeable and resourceful. She sticks to her timelines and is easily accessible via emails and even ...in person. She suggested many ways to strengthen my green card application, and presented the case very well. She is very trustworthy and reliable. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.

Gabriela helped my husband obtain a Green Card through marriage. She is a very experienced lawyer and understands all facets of immigration law. She prepared all the paperwork accurately and on time. She helped both my husband and I prepare for the interview process and was always available to d...iscuss the case. She answered all my emails promptly with an explanation of what I needed to do. I also liked Gabriela's personality and kindness. She was genuinely interested and truly was delighted for John and I when he finally received his green card. One final note, Gabriela is a very positive person and always made me feel good about the process which is lengthy and challenging.

I highly recommend Gabriela for your visa issue

If I had met Gabriela earlier, I would have been able to save my thousands of dollars and huge psychological pressure on my visa issues. She was recommended by my company, other coworkers as well as my husband, who got his greencard thru Gabriela within a year after coming to US for work. My Gr...eencard application got an audit on the first stage, when I was using other lawyer. My company recommended me to change my lawyer to Gabriela. When I got the notice, it was close to Christmas holiday season, but the deadline was close enough. Although my case was not easy, due to the previous lawyer's poor work, she spent many hours during holiday time without any extra charge and got the work done on time. The audit went through without any problem, thanks to Gabriela's thorough work. The second time when Gabriela saved my life was when I was denied my visa stamp at Japanese Consulate. Some of my visa supporting documents were stolen from my suitcase, and I had to collect all my documents again. By communicating through international calls and emails day and night, she made all the documents (as big as phone book) again and prepared extra letters asking support to Consulate. Besides her competent work performance, I liked her gentle personality and kindness. Also her fee was reasonable compared to her ability as a lawyer. (some lawyer asked me to pay much higher for the declined work) I highly recommend Gabriela for your immigration process. Without her help,I could not have stayed in the US.

Simply the Best!

Gabriela was recommended to me by my friend, whom she helped with work papers for one of his employees. From the very first meeting with Gabriela, I got a sense that she is greatly knowledgeable, professional and trustworthy. In a following period of four years of our collaboration, I found out th...at she is all of that plus more; always on the top of any situation, very straightforward and efficient, full of advise for interviews, and a real pro in filing forms: she knew exactly when and how, and what to file. She was leading me through all the steps from my permanent residency to my citizenship, explaining clearly each process, illustrating it with some examples from her previous cases. She was also very understanding of my busy work schedule, and whenever I tried to make an appointment, she worked magic to accommodate my time. Besides her professionalism, she expressed great empathy each time when I was worried about some possible obstacles, and reassured me that everything would be fine. And it was! Since yesterday I am a naturalized citizen of USA, and on the path toward it, thanks to Gabriela, I have never ever experienced any delays or wavers. Everything went smoothly and without headache, even though my case wasn't the easiest one to handle. THANK YOU GABRIELA!
