I just got my green card!!!

Rachel is a very experienced and excellent lawyer. Because of this, she gives reliable advice that never failed me. Given her years of experience, she knows very well how this process works and advises the right balance of patience and action. She is obviously well known, well liked and respected... in her field and knows how to best use these assets to help her client. She is down to earth, friendly and made herself available to me via phone, text or visit, as much as I required. My situation was a challenging one and other lawyers that I had visited before Rachel, had turned me down after hearing the difficulties of my case. She took on the challenge, explaining to me the process and hurdles and was very realistic in setting expectations. I am thrilled to say that I just received my 10 year green card. After my experience with this process, my advice to you is: Don't hire an immigration lawyer without consulting Rachel Self first! PS: her Spanish is awesome! :) Thank you Rachel!

Best lawyer ever.

If you are looking for a great immigration and criminal lawyer. Please, look no further! Rachel is truly amazing. Not only she is extremely knowledgeable and experienced in immigration field-she is super attentive and dedicated and will treat your case/problem as her own. If Rachel takes your case, y...ou can be confident that she’ll do everything and will win it. Besides being an outstanding professional, she also has a very nice personality, and it’s simply a pleasure to work with her, when I met her I had no hope to win my husband case , all I heard from others lawyers was that the best option was to sign to voluntary and here we are Rachel made it possible she win my case of cancellation of removal . Thank you

THE BEST LAWYER WITHOUT A DOUBT

I have been in law enforcement for over 20 years, having said that I am familiar with many lawyers. We needed and retained two lawyers that were recommended for a family member in need of representation. On separate appearances we were told the same thing by both attorneys, pack your bags and sen...d him back, this was absolutely NOT acceptable to our family. We contacted Rachel Self and met with her, not only were we given hope but felt at ease knowing that she gave the best assessment of this very complex case. In the end after an appeal Rachel Self gave the best, most professional defense that I have witnessed in my years in law enforcement. Rachel Self won the appeal for removal, base on her experience and knowledge. I will have her name on the tip of my tongue ready to recommend her expertise to anyone that needs a GREAT lawyer.

The lawyer you want by your side!

Rachel is absolutely amazing. She is a brilliant attorney and an unbelievable human being. There are no two cases the same when it comes to immigration law, her thorough knowledge of the law and the procedures, as well as her calming personality are two of the strongest assets one will need in a ...lawyer who represents your immigration case. Rachel was there for me and my husband during our panic attacks, our uncertainties and so much more. She handheld me and my employer while my case was submitted to Immigration Court. We couldn't have wished for a better lawyer. Even when we didn't believe in ourselves, we never lost our trust in Rachel and her capabilities. If you want a lawyer that would go the extra mile for you, hire Rachel. She will give you the piece of mind you didn't know you could have. My husband and I are eternally thankful to Rachel and there are no words we could show our gratitude.

The BEST Immigration Attorney

Rachel Self is a great immigration attorney in Boston. She was highly recommended by one of my friend and we are glad she took my immigration case. The previous attorney was no help and instead made my case worse. She is honest and thorough with my case and never gave up hope but instead ensured me t...hat thing will be alright. She was always prepared for upcoming court dates and made sure all the paperwork were complete. I highly recommend Rachel Self to anyone seeking immigration assistance. Thank you very much Rachel.
