Ray of Hope!!!

From the first time I spoke with Ms Wu, she was respectful, knowledgeable, very prompt and professional. She never let my phone call or email go unanswered for days -- she always responded so well and quickly with good information. Laurie helped my in-laws from China get their visas to visit my... wife and I in the US because we are expecting our first child -- it would have been quite sad if they could not come. Laurie spent so much time with me explaining what needs to be done in a clear concise way and also made my in-laws feel at home and advise them promptly in terms they understood and could quickly act on. Because of her 1-on-1 phone interview with my in-laws, my in-laws were 100% more prepared for their interview. The first time my in-laws tried this, we did it without a lawyer's help and that was a huge mistake on my part!!! Always go with a lawyer. The peace of mind you get is priceless plus it wins huge points with your in-laws :) Thank you Laurie for being part of our family's joyous time and making it possible for the entire family to be together for the birth of our daughter! I wish I had come to her first for my wife's

"The Fast and the Friendly"

As we all know being separated from a loved one is quite difficult, and every day matters. I have had one experience procuring a visa for my fiance many years ago,(what an exasperating experience) and Laurie was more than twice as fast as doing it on my own. Laurie is extremely responsive, as I ...can attest to her even working/taking calls on the weekend to make the process go faster. Also it should be noted that Laurie's voice is a valuable asset, let me explain. Everyone knows how international phone lines voice quality is awful. Laurie's voice is extremely clear, and her English is perfect, so it makes it much easier to hear and understand her perfectly on long distance international phone calls. To say I am thankful for her professionalism would be an understatement, I got lucky finding Laurie Wu. Furthermore Laurie is a Patriot because she allows a military discount. In conclusion, it would be smart of you to hire Laurie Wu.

Excellent Lawyer

My wife and I feel very grateful for all of Laurie’s services. Her organization skills and efficient ways of handling matters made the path to my wife’s green card simpler and clearer. Communication was never a problem as she replied to all our emails at a timely manner, even during weekends. Also, L...aurie’s instructions were very detailed, but not overwhelming. We understood all of her explanations and knew exactly which documents we needed to gather in order to submit. We also found that her attention to detail have even led her to finding errors that my wife and I have overlooked during our parts of our immigration process. During our phone calls, Laurie was very cordial and friendly. She patiently took the time to mentor us and even had a few laughs along the way. Most importantly, Laurie is very friendly and pleasant. During this time in our lives, my wife and I have become extremely busy and have been scrambling to prepare a new home for a baby that is on the way. With Laurie, we rest assured that our immigration matters were being taken care of and put my wife and me at ease. Her kind demeanor made us feel comfortable with her and knew we could put our trust in her. Overall, Laurie is very professional, kind and beyond helpful. We highly recommend her and we would definitely continue to seek her services again in the future.

Outstanding- couldn't have done it without Laurie.

Laurie provided truly outstanding service from start to finish. I was a bit anxious about the outcome of the K-1 visa for my Chinese girlfriend before I had Laurie as my attorney. Once Laurie started the application process I was reassured that I was in the best hands possible. She has intimate knowl...edge of the application process and how to present the best possible application. Laurie has an incredible attention to detail. She responds to every question in a timely and clear fashion. Her approach is personal and friendly. Her fees are very reasonable and the refund policy extremely fair. It has been a real pleasure working with Laurie and I am very grateful. I would highly recommend Laurie to anyone looking for immigration services.

Excellent lawyer

I found Laurie after a lot of research because choosing a good lawyer for immigration purposes, especially for my wife, is extremely important. I found Laurie to be extremely helpful in all areas of the process. E-mails were promptly returned and answered in complete detail. Documents, explanation...s, interview help and all other sorts of hassles and frustrating parts of the process were handled expertly, without stress--and with a friendly touch. The entire process went so much easier than it could have, and I hired her not only for the immigration process to the US but also for the green card application. She put both myself and my wife at ease and I would not hesitate to hire her again.
