Thank you Rachel!

Rachel is not only a knowledgeable, competent and well recognized attorney, but also a great person. Her positive attitude and genuineness gave me the strength to keep going during difficult time.

Rachel Self Review

We, my spouse and I, met Rachel one day at the immigrations in Boston while getting information, through USCIS's Infor Pass, on my spouse's case. We were amazed at the diligence Rachel showed while she was checking on the status of her clients. We had visited immigrations many times to get our status... and not once did we see a lawyer, and we saw plenty, work that hard for their clients. We talked to Rachel about our case and immediately she was full of ideas and helpful suggestion and talked with us for 20-30 minutes. Our original lawyer we hired to help us not only was late for the interview, but had very little to offer us in the way of advice or followup. We got more valuable information in our talk with Rachel than the whole time we spend with our original lawyer. Later when USCIS denied my spouse's green card we hired Rachel to represent us and again we were not disappointed. She has been there to walk us through every step of the appeal process, writing letters and following with us. Rachel is smart, diligent, experienced and ready to go the extra distance for her clients. Of all the lawyers I've worked with, Rachel is by far the best and when I have an issue or problem I ask Rachel first and if she can't help me I know the lawyer she refers me to will be of the best quality.

Rachel Self - a highly recommended legal professional committed to excellence and positive outcomes

Rachel was recommended to us by a law firm handling the purchase of our house. She was recommended to us because of her experience and success in managing immigration matters. Rachel handled our case at a distance and made every effort to keep us up to date on the progress of our case. She was pol...ite, attentive, thorough, thoughtful and demonstrated a strong knowledge of the laws and sections of immigration law as they pertained to our case. I would highly recommend Rachel, she is dependable, enthusiastic and down to earth. I cannot come up with one area that I would identify as needing improvement.

Entrepreneur

My naturalisation case was straightforward but USCIS office was not giving me the info. I hired Rachel and she went with me once to the USCIS office. On another occasion, I was out of the country and she obtained the case status info for me. For me, Trust and Professionalism is paramount and Rach...el scores a perfect 10 there. I recommend her wholeheartedly.
