The Best Immigration & Criminal Lawyer I know

I am young man with good education, working with a good company and have green card. In my college life I made a mistake that involved me in a criminal offense that could have caused me to be deported. I got reference of Attorney Rachel Self from one of my family friends and contacted her, she listen...ed to my case very carefully and guided me properly and I was very satisfied in the first meeting and hired her. Attorney Rachel Self was able to overturn a prior judgment and I am now looking forward with her to get my citizenship. I am confident that she will successfully do it. Attorney Rachel Self is confident and very knowledgeable in her work and whenever we tried to contact her or had any concerns or questions during the case, she was available and very helpful.

Very professional and compassionate lawyer

Attorney Self is the best immigration lawyer in Boston. I've consulted a handful of immigration lawyers, Rachel is the only one who gave me clear answers, unlike some of other lawyers who were trying to make the case more complicated or to scare me. She is very compassionate, and patiently answered a...ll my questions and concerns. I would highly recommend Attorney Self if you are looking for the best immigration lawyer in Boston area. I will continue working with her on my immigration case in the future.

Very professional work

Rachel Self, The best lawyer you can find in Massachusetts. Rachel is the attorney that tells you everything before you give your case to her, unlike other attorneys that want to take your case and money and get denied. I became a US citizen in 2011. I wanted to apply for permanent residence for... my wife. I went to so many lawyers in four years. I went all the way down to Washington D.C. to find a good lawyer that can get a Green Card for my wife. But they wanted to charge me lots of money and send my wife back to her country and get a Green card there. I could not do that because I have two kids and I have multiple businesses. Finally, I went to Rachel in 2015. And She finds that my wife is eligible to get her green card in the US without leaving. Rachel Started the process in 2015. We did run into some problems in the process because my wife's case was little complicated. That's when Rachel showed her skill and professionalism. My wife got her Green Card in 2017. Her work is very very professional. She was available anytime I needed help to gather documents. She put up good arguments. She was very good at the interview. Thank you to Rachel and her staff, she kept my family together.

A Big Help to obtain a US Citizenship

Rachel Self is a wonderful attorney and is very easy to work with. She is very knowledgeable about immigration law and explained the process of applying for a citizenship very well. She helped my son fill out the application and prepare for the interview. I'm glad to say that my son became a US citiz...en last Thursday and all of my family would like to thank Rachel Self for that.
