Highly Recommended

I hired Cathy to help me through the Naturalization process as I had an arrest several years back and I was concerned this would seriously affect my application. Cathy quickly put my mind at ease and throughout the whole process I felt she was on my side and would fight my corner if needed. Thankfull...y, that wasn't needed and the whole process went smoothly. Cathy was there every step of the way and was always available to answer questions or provide clarification on anything I wasn't sure of. I highly recommend Cathy to represent you in any immigration needs you have.

Knowledgeable, friendly and trustworthy

I am currently a client of Cathy’s. I married my husband in Jamaica August 27th 2022. We filed for the spousal visa approximately one month later and we’re waiting patiently for our approval. I was very nervous about choosing the right Attorney for our immigration process. However, my fears were quic...kly diminished when meeting Cathy. I knew that I wanted an attorney who was readily available to answer questions. I knew I wanted to feel safe and able to speak freely without judgement or criticism. I knew it was important for me to find an attorney that I felt was honest and trustworthy with my money and my heart. Cathy possesses all of these exemplary qualities and more.. A couple of months ago, I called Cathy with a question. Unbeknown to me, Cathy was on vacation. She remained on the phone with me, answering my questions, all while she was on top of a mountain skiing. Her dedication and passion is unmatched. I couldn’t be happier and know in my heart that she is the person for me. The immigration process is very scary and there’s no guarantee it will be approved. Regardless of the outcome, I’m fulfilled by knowing and trusting that she will go to bat for me. I couldn’t be happier and I’m truly blessed to have her in my life.

Sharp, Responsive, Effective… Really Outstanding!!!

Cathy has been the attorney for me and my wife for a few years now as we navigate my wife’s immigration status. I cannot overstate the importance of Cathy’s role. It is not an exaggeration to say that Cathy and her firm are dealing with the most monumental thing in my life - and, certainly, in my wif...e’s life, as well. And I am very happy (and relieved!) to say that Cathy is an incredibly sharp and dedicated lawyer. She knows what she’s doing, and - crucially - she is amazingly responsive when we have a question or a concern (which we often do!), including responding on the weekends. For those of you going through immigration issues and processes, I don’t need to tell you how critical this is. My wife and I are VERY thankful that Cathy is advocating for us!
