Attentive and Responsive

Working with Laurie has been a good experience from start to finish. Laurie replies to our requests in a timely manner and is familiar with our needs and our particular circumstances because she takes the time to get to know her clients. When choosing someone in any field, not only legal, I loo...k for attention to details. Laurie provides the level of detail I expect from a professional and I have referred her to several people who are in need of her services; I know that my referral will also receive the same excellent service we experienced. We hired Laurie to assist us in the process of a fiance visa. Throughout the process Laurie kept us well informed and was always 1 or 2 steps ahead of the requirements that would ultimately be needed during the government process. This was a tremendous help in eliminating some unnecessary wait times. This proactive behavior was exactly what we were looking for when hiring an attorney. We are now in the process of citizenship and have been able to work with Laurie. We wouldn't choose anyone else to work with during this process! We highly recommend Laurie Wu.

Fantastic immigration lawyer, especially US-China

My husband and I have hired Laurie three times - all successful. First was my K-1 visa to come from China to the US, then for my green card adjustment of status. Most recently we hired her to help with my parent's travel visa to come from China to the US for the birth of our new baby. I can't emphasi...ze enough how helpful, knowledgeable and easy to work with Laurie is. We highly recommend her to anyone with immigration needs, especially with US-China related matters. You won't find anyone better!

Getting a visa

Laurie was very helpful getting through the visa maze for my fiancée. She was very responsive and explained the process clearly. I am glad I used her and would do so again.

Spousal Visa

My wife and I hired Laurie Wu to help my wife return to the US on a Spousal Visa from China. My wife previously came to the US on a K-1 visa in 2011, which Laurie also helped us on. We filed for removal of conditions ourselves and while the application was pending, my wife had to return home to care... for her mother and we didn't respond to the government's request for additional evidence in time. For the Spousal Visa application, we attempted it on our own for a few weeks, but discovered we were in over our heads with deciding which forms to use, and even how to properly and accurately provide some of the required information. Laurie provided us with all of the required forms (completing some of them for us), carefully explained what supporting documents to provide, and even where to locate most of it. During the entire process, Laurie patiently responded to our numerous questions and concerns, often on weekends and several evenings as well. My wife had a successful Visa Interview about 3 days ago, thanks to Laurie. She'll have her Visa very shortly and will be returning to the US in a month or so. We appreciate all the time Laurie spent with us, and would truly recommend her to anyone.

Hiring Laurie will be the best decision you'll make for your immigration journey!

We hired Laurie to help us with our spouse visa. As a frequent expat, I have used several immigration firms -- from big companies to small boutique firms -- and I can honestly say that Laurie is, hands down, the best I have worked with. While we never met in person, Laurie knew our case details so we...ll that it was like having a trusted lawyer friend handle our case. She is highly professional, extremely meticulous, and very responsive (whenever we receive an email from the USCIS, Laurie will usually already have sent us a follow-up email explaining what it means and the next steps – before we’ve even read the USCIS mail!). Most importantly, she is able to explain very complicated processes in the simplest terms. We highly recommend Laurie, and will definitely use her services again in the future.

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.
