Awesome experience!!

Anita Gurnani is a thorough professional. In addition, she is a kind detail oriented attorney. From our very first initial consultation to the conclusion of our case she was always available to patiently answer all our questions. There was never a phone call or email that she and her staff did not re...spond to. God bless you Mrs. Gurnani to continue doing the good work that you and the Gurnani and Gurnani law firm are doing in helping people like us who are confused by the U.S. Immigration Laws. We appreciate all your help and guidance and wish you the very best.

Very sincere, compassionate and Responsible

In few words, below are the things Anita Gurnani did for me. 1. My H1B visa which was entrusted to her by my sponsoring company in 2001. 2. My green card for which I approached her myself. 3. My citizenship which was lot more complex than a normal case. 4. My brothers immigration. 5. And in 201...7 my parents application for their Green card. Anita clearly knows what needs to be done, and she goes through each and every case details and makes sure that nothing is missed. And I can say that I haven't seen anyone more sincere than her with her job (may be its a passion) and the individual attention that she pays to each case. I did not want to take any chance with my parents immigration and I did not even think of considering someone else since in all my cases i only saw 100% success.

GC Application

Found them very good on availability to answer questions. The entire process was easy and very less work for me on documentation prep. Will utilize their services for immigration cases in the future.

Best Immigration Lawyer

Words can't describe how grateful i am to Mrs. Anita Gurnani and the entire firm. Mrs. Gurnani has been my husband immigration attorney ,My husband and I feel so grateful to have worked with Mrs. Gurnani. She helped us from the beginning of this process and helped us reach our goal- to finally be tog...ether! From start to finish, She was patient, knowledgeable, approachable, and was always available to answer any questions, regardless of whether or not she had gone over them before! Just Few days before my husband's interview i got the email from embassy that they need some additional documents on the interview, she helped me a lot and prepare my documents very quickly and without any additional fee. This process is pretty stressful, and I can't imagine a better person to have on your team than Her! To me she just a super lawyer that always have options for her client. I definitely would recommend Mrs. Gurnani for all immigration services. Thanks Mrs. Gurnani.

Decent Experience

We hired Mrs. Gurnani for my Adjustment of Status(AOS). During course of my Green Card process, we had move to different address and she helped us to have our applications updated with new address. Got Green Card approved with no RFE. Overall, decent and good experience.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
