Best immigration lawyer

I think one of my greatest strikes of luck on Google was finding Laurie's contact. My fiancé and I were in the middle of trying to go through the K1 visa on our own and we found Laurie and having her with us during this process was the best decision we've made in a while. She has always been nothing ...less than a nice and real person, guiding us in a very calm way through the K1 visa process. She has knowledge to answer most of your answers on the spot and if that doesn't happen, she'll reply ASAP with a thorough explanation. She has always been patient with any crazy question asked more than a few times by us and has always shown that she really pays attention to details – she even found a mistake on my birth certificate that we would have never found! She's a very open person and even replies on weekends. Also, she was very okay with us being overseas and dealing with us through Skype, e-mail and mail. Conclusion: if you're in doubt on hiring a lawyer or not, from a couple that's gone with Laurie from the first step of the process and will continue with her during all the next steps of my fiancés process, I would recommend her always! If you need more recommendation from me, feel free to contact.

Spouse Green Card + Citizenship

We contacted Laurie through a friend recommendation when we were looking for help processing a spouse green card. During our first conversation, she carefully listened to our story and provided valuable information to us. Talking to Laurie feels like having conversation with a very knowledgeable frie...nd. We decided to go with Laurie for a citizenship application and spouse green card, and it was well worth it. When an interview invitation was not forthcoming from USCIS, she was on top of it and immediately got us a faxed copy of the invitation. Without her help, I would have missed the interview. For spouse green card application, she gave assurances that we were proceeding correctly, and that we would have the best chance possible to secure the green card. It was a very smooth process with minimal stress, thanks to Laurie. I would recommend her for anyone who might need an immigration lawyer, and I would definitely contact her for my future immigration needs as well.

Outstanding Attorney

An outstanding attorney. Very prompt response to emails and phone calls in a clear, concise, and friendly manner, without ever a feeling that I was asking too many questions or annoying her. I researched at least a dozen attorneys across the country and I decided that Laurie Wu was the best, and she ...is, because of the support she provides for the petitioner of a K-1 visa and more importantly, the beneficiary. No other attorney I interviewed provided this level of support. I felt like I was dealing with a friend. Very through and clear instructions and advice.

Forever Grateful to Laurie

Your spouse is in very good hands with Laurie Wu. She demonstrated time and time again to my Chinese wife and me that we could not have chosen a better visa lawyer. Laurie was extremely responsive to all our communications, and her thoughtful, insightful replies were greatly appreciated. From the beg...inning of the visa process to the end, Laurie worked very hard on our behalf and always completed her paperwork for the U.S. government in a timely fashion. When I bring back my wife to the United States, I will thank Laurie again and again because I couldn't have done it without her invaluable assistance and kindness. Entrust your spouse's visa application process in Laurie—a decision your spouse and you will be delighted you made.

Great experience, excellent results.....

Laurie was very prompt in responding to emails regarding the case. She was very friendly and professional in all of our correspondences and phone calls. She provided useful information for my wife’s tourist visa application, and walked us through the case each step of the way. I would highly recom...mend Laurie Wu to anyone needing immigration assistance. We are definitely very satisfied with our results.
