OUTSTANDING IMMIGRATION EXPERIENCE - HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!

I honestly cannot say enough positives about Laurie, even as someone who has worked as a paralegal for an immigration attorney myself, and had been considering doing the filing myself to save money. On a scale of 1 to 5 stars, she gets 10,000 from me. Laurie helped my wife and stepson (originally... from Colombia) to immigrate successfully to the U.S., while we were all living in China. Now, in large part due to Laurie's hard work, we are all together in the incredible and beautiful USA! Laurie responded to every single question I had about the process, anticipated and planned well. We communicated often and as necessary via e-mail, phone, and Skype, and I felt confident our case was being handled well. With Laurie, everything went smoothly, quickly, and successfully! In fact, had I been able to gather the required documents quicker, it would have gone even faster. I feel that because of Laurie's help, there were no avoidable delays. The consular officer even approvingly said her filing was "nice and tight" upon submittal. After our interview and approval, Laurie kept in touch and made sure all our needs and requirements were taken care of and anticipated. Plus, she's a great, humble, and kind person, and has an amazing intellect. She is simply the most extraordinary attorney I have ever had the pleasure of personally knowing. Easy to work with and incredibly efficient. When I think of all this at the extremely economical fee, it's just even more amazing. I searched very hard to find Laurie. We are SO glad Laurie was our immigration lawyer.

Excellent Lawyer!

Laurie most recently helped my wife and I remove the conditions from my green card. In 2012, she helped us with K-1 fiancé visa and then helped me get my conditional green card. The entire process then and now went smooth without complications. Because of her attention to details, we didn't need ...to submit any more evidence and didn't have to go for any interview in order to obtain my 10 year green card. We know she has many clients, but she treated our case like we were her only clients. Not only is she hardworking, she is also very professional and reachable. I'm so glad my wife and I found her. Her fees are very affordable, and I highly recommend her to everyone.

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.

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.

Simply the Best!

When I married my wife Natalia, who was from Russia, I considered filing all of the necessary documents with the USCIS for her temporary green card by myself. Instead, I decided to hire Immigration Attorney Laurie Wu, as I was afraid to make a mistake with something that can be so overwhelming and i...s so important. That turned out to be one of the best decisions I ever made and well worth the money I spent. Laurie made the whole process as painless as possible for beginning to end. She always had time to speak with me when I had questions and was with us every step of the way in the process. Laurie is so personable and helpful, that sometimes I forgot that she was an attorney. When it came time for us to apply for Natalia's 10 year permanent resident card, there was no doubt in my mind that we would once again have Laurie to help us. I was very relaxed throughout the process as I knew we had Laurie on our side. I am very happy to report that Natalia received her 10 year permanent resident card yesterday and we couldn't be happier! When it comes time for Natalia to apply to become a US Citizen, I won't hesitate to have Laurie help us once again. I would highly recommend Attorney Laurie Wu to help you with all of your immigration needs.
