Dismissing my immigration case.

Rachel Self is an amazing lawyer. She is very determined and will fight until the end. My immigration case lasted about 2+ years and we beat the case recently. I felt very confident with Rachel as my lawyer throughout the whole process.

Hardworking and compassionate

Rachel worked on a case for my husband, she always answered all our questions always called me back when I needed answers and felt that she was always there for us. The case involved immigration issues and she always gave me the good and the bad never sugar coated anything which I respected her for t...hat. Hardworking in a way that she really looked into the laws and how it can work for us. I would recommend her to all my family and friends never disappointed.

Immigration Representation

Attorney Self was a referral from another law firm. From the initial contact she was nothing but professional with such positive attitude and energy towards our sensitive case. Rachel is not your typical attorney. She is very knowledgeable and generally seems to take a real interest in her clients. A...t our initial meeting she explained in layman terms the process and the time-line. She was accurated with both without any unpleasant surprises. We would highly recommend Rachel in cases similar to ours involving Immigration, without any hesitation.

Made a Difficult Process Not So Daunting

Rachel did a fantastic job in helping us understand what our options were; she was direct and factual. She was very responsive to any questions or concerns we had and always got back to us in a timely manner. She really put us at ease during a very difficult process and made it as painless as possi...ble for us. With so many options out there for immigration attorneys, there are few that match her combination of expertise, trustworthiness, and affability.

Expeditious, Honest and Trustworthy

Attorney Self represented my mother on a criminal/immigration case from over 10 years ago. My mother had been represented by a previous lawyer who had collected $4000 and told her he could not do anything for her until immigration contacted her directly, in the meantime he held the $4000. for 5 ye...ars. After receiving a 2nd opinion from Attorney Self, she not only helped my mom collect back a portion of the money the lawyer had taken to "represent her" she gave us hope that my mothers case could possibly be dismissed based on the facts presented. Court date after court date, Attorney Self remained dynamic with her personality not only with us but also with the the process in the courts. She continued to show her proficiency about criminal/immigration laws at time even educating the DA and the acutal judge and always with a smile. Not being proficient in the english language and not knowing the complex laws could put fear in an individual and Attorney Self does a great job translating from english to spanish when needed, which is a plus! I can tell in the court room that Attorney Self presence is felt and she is respected by her peers. I highly recommend Attorney Rachel Self and have already referred a client.
