a great experience

My wife and I hired Ms Ramirez for my wife's immigration case after a recommendation from my wife's friend. She was very professional and very helpful in our case. She was always in constant contact with us and explained the immigration process. She was very helpful and felt like she cared about o...ur situation. I am very thankful for her services and would recommend her to anyone who has an immigration issue.

Diligent, Professional, and heartwarming

Helen Ramirez was truly a Godsend. After decades of only imagining of one day becoming a permanent resident of this wonderful country, in which I only know as my home, Helen was the righteous person to help fulfill that dream. Coming to the USA as a child, undocumented, was more of an uphill battle... since day one. Growing up and being raised through the entire American school system was normal at first, until end of high school came about and becoming an adult and partaking of all the benefits (obtaining driving license, applying for college, obtaining a professional job/career) was out of the question. Although tough to face reality, one can only continue to pursue a dream as much as one is determined to, and so I did. I was able to achieve a college degree (by the favor and grace of God) and establish myself as a working individual in society but still not able to achieve proper career employment due to my status. As the years passed I continued to pursue my personal dream, and I met and married the love of my life and began a family. At this time is when we met Helen with high hopes that she may assist us with our situation. Although possibilities seemed slim, Helen made it a point to understand our situation and become more of a friend that cared for the rightful outcome, rather than just a person hired for their services. She guided us through the process with care and knowledgeable advice so that we may do everything properly and lawfully. The end results speaks for itself, we were able to achieve my U.S Residency and accomplish a lifetime goal that was only an imagination at first. My family is truly grateful to the determination, professionalism, encouragement, and moreover friendship of Helen Ramirez. Helen and her staff will be recommended by my family for decades to come.

Helped our impossible dream come true

Our case was incredibly difficult. After three lawyers refused to take the case, Helen was the only one willing to take on the challenge. Two prior attorneys we'd consulted had said that the case was impossible to win. Another lawyer had taken much money without giving us any hope or results. In cont...rast, Helen was always respectful and always hopeful, even when all the odds seemed against us. In the end, we were able to keep our nine-year-old daughter here with us as Helen was able to secure asylum for her. Without Helen, this dream would have never become a reality.

Helen Ramirez is the Best attorney!!!

Helen Ramirez, thank you very much for your amazing service during the toughest time of our life. She is the best attorney who does what has been said. She does her work strictly and professionally. But at the same time she will make you feel like a part of her family. She definitely understands the... pain. and the struggles every families goes though with immigration problem. She does her work very personally, and the most important part she is a very honest person. which I believe to be a very important quality. Our immigration issue was so complicated that it almost seemed impossible to resolve yet Ms. Ramirez had handled the case so easily that she solved our problem. She made impossible things possible. We can't thank her enough for her service. We highly recommend her as an very best Immigration Attorney. Stephanie & Latib
