Not only is he a talented Immigration lawyer, Abadir BARRE is also a strong advocate for his clients.

As my husband and I began to plan the immigration I-130, Petition for Alien Relative and Adjustment of Status I-485 (Green Card); processes, we knew we needed to retain a lawyer with the services of a good accomplished and HONEST immigration lawyer. We didn't want to do the file ourselves as a sim...ple mistake could have impacted the processing time of the file by several months or even worse seeing it being refused. As a result, we understood that we needed to be cautious and act fast to find a lawyer. Due to Covid 19 meetings with lawyers in person was a little more complicated BUT Abadir BARRE was very nice and took his time patiently discussing my husband's case over the phone. The following week we set up a date to meet at the office. After speaking with different immigration lawyers we finally retained BARRE as a lawyer. Because he believes in accompanying and supporting his clients until the end. My husband and I are happy to say that we made the right choice in choosing Mr. ABADIR BARRE and his team to take care of the case. BARRE showed us his sincerity, his skills, and his caring throughout the process. His dedicated from the beginning until the preparation of the interview at the Rector office. He was present before, during and after the interview. He was very friendly and even played with our 4 years old daughter while waiting for our name to be called. BARRE reassured us and made us confident for the interview. Everything was completed with the utmost care and has helped us prepare supporting documents and verified with unwavering precision. He took care of our case in such a way that we always felt like we were always his priority. The response to my calls as well as the response to my emails were always prompt, without exception. My husband and I questions were always answered quickly and in a clear and concise manner. The entire process took less than 10 months. Writing this testimony is to help families like ours to go through all the stages of this immigration process with the best. Bakary and I just wanted to say a massive personal thank you to ABADIR BARRE AND ALL OF THE STAFF.

Best, Most Unrivaled and Knowledgeable Lawyer Ever. Truly Beyond Competent in his field with an Extraordinary team

Abadir is truly phenomenal. My immigration success story was quite an uphill battle. I had overstayed my visitor visa and was starting to feel nervous and scared to even go to work. I knew I wanted to adjust my status but didn’t know how and I felt as though immigration would have denied me since I w...as working without proper documentation. After contacting a series of lawyers who seemed uninterested in my case or my gut feeling was telling me I wouldn’t get the attention or accountability I needed I found Abadir! Upon our initial consultation, he immediately made me feel at peace knowing that I actually had a chance at being a resident. He spoke clearly and intelligently and asked very important questions unique to my case. He was available to answer all my questions and give me and my husband updates as needed. He provided us with a trajectory that was spot on! He is patient and understanding and does not discriminate. He is also very accommodating as my husband's work required him to constantly be on tour. He never ignored our calls or emails and continuously gave us hope and assurance. Due to covid restrictions and shut down of most immigration centers our case took a much longer time span than most, but with a competent lawyer such as Abadir were able to exercise patience as he kept us abreast of the changes and the and updates on our paperwork. I can’t emphasize enough how blessed we were to found such a gem of a lawyer. He kept our documents well organized and ensured that we left no stone unturned. He prepped us for our interview and gave my husband tips on how to articulate well when asked questions in the interview. He was there with us when we did our I-485 adjustment of status interview and it made the process so much easier. We were in and out in 15 minutes! He had all our information and bonafide in a folder thoroughly organized and it made the immigration officer's job much easier. My husband and I feel blessed to have a lawyer such as Abadir. We will be using him for all other future services! Additionally, his team is one of a kind! Especially L’Eunice, she was emotionally available for me when I was having breakdowns and felt stuck. To summarize, he is a relatable, competent, and exemplary lawyer. We made the best decision of our lives by choosing him as our attorney.

Great immigration lawyer

Abadir was great! He was efficient in preparing and sending out a writ of mandamus for us and even after the interview answered all the questions we had. I highly recommend! His prices are good as well.

1-601 case

Abadir is a very respectable, intelligent and professional attorney who takes pride in his job and have his clients best interests at heart. In November 2018 I went to Abadir about my i601 after another Lawyer turned me down. Abadir immediately jump on my case , it wasn't easy but Abadir make this p...rocess becomes so simple. I can remember him telling me , and I quote "Deloris I got you and I got this, dont worry I'm going to fight this for you, and you're going to be ok." I went to my interview well prepp , and it was there and then he stood out for me. November 2019 I have my GC in my hand. I won't hesitate to recommend Abadir as the best attorney in NYC and the United States of America. Check out Abadir, simply the best and the perfect attorney to get the job done.
