My Paris Counsel
I used Mr. Wise's firm three times since 2006. One was labor related, another was for work visa maintenance and third was for SARL application preparation. All the legal services have met my expectations and I considered each a "success". On several occasions, the firm has also acted as my gener...

Furthermore, recent provisions have decentralized the naturalization process, allowing the Prefect of each Department to make its own adjudication of naturalization requests and establish their internal rules.

Haywood Wise won my case.
Haywood Wise took my case, which no other Parisian lawyers would consider, against a major French firm, and won, including damages. He remains my avocat/attorney today.
In all fairness, the individual in question who gave me a poor rating received a full reimbursement of her fees, and furthermore was not refused but rather abandoned her visa matter.
