First consultation with Wendy was so comprehensive and informative. I appreciate her going through every single question I had and share her viewpoints with me by the book. Please give her a shot if you are looking for an attorney.
I moved to the US many years ago and after multiple visa applications I can say with confidence that Wendy Barlow is the best lawyer I’ve ever worked with. I have so many good things to say about her I don't even know where to start. She is incredibly knowledgeable and straightforward, super hands on, will warn you about even the remotest risk you could encounter so you have a crystal clear understanding of the process, and will patiently and expertly walk you through everything you need to know. Her prompt replies throughout the year will make you feel reassured during the stressful process that a visa petition can be. I never thought I would say this, but my green card application has been the smoothest, and it’s all because of Wendy and her team. Thanks Wendy!!!
I am a Supervising Attorney at a boutique immigration law firm located in New York, NY. I am currently admitted to practice in the States of New York and New Jersey, but have represented clients in immigration matters throughout United States and internationally. Working for a boutique law firm for over a fifteen years has allowed me to gain valuable experience working with a diverse clientele, managing a substantial and varied caseload, supervising the work of associate attorneys, paralegals, and legal assistants, and developing an expansive knowledge of immigration laws and procedures. This experience allows me to successfully represent clients before U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, U.S. Embassies and Consulates, Immigration Courts, the Board of Immigration Appeals, the Administrative Appeals Office, and U.S. Courts of Appeals.
I represent clients in a variety of immigration matters from family-based and employment-based adjustment of status applications to complex immigration issues such as appeals to the Board of Immigration Appeals and the Administrative Appeals and the Administrative Appeals Office, motions to reconsider and/or reopen, cases involving criminal aliens, waivers of grounds of inadmissibility, and federal court actions seeking review of agency decisions. I defend individuals in removal proceedings before the Executive Office for Immigration Review. I also frequently represent individuals in a range of interviews and appearance before U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services in connection with asylum applications, nonimmigrant visas, applications for lawful permanent residence, and naturalization.
I strive for excellence in all that I undertake. I wholeheartedly invest myself into the representation of my clients from treating them with respect, dignity, and compassion to outstanding legal services. I aspire to deliver successful results to my clients allowing them to achieve their immigration goals.

Amazing
My husband and I hired Ms.Barlow in 2016 to help us with his papers. She is very attentive and professional. Ms.Barlow was able to get the wavier approved for overstaying and overall get his green card. She stood besides us throughout the whole process. Even while we was in Barbados, Ms.Barlow was only a phone call away. We hired again to do his permanent green card and remove restrictions. Amazing is an understatement. Wish I could give 10 stars ⭐️ I always recommend Ms. Barlow for immigration issues.

The best attorney I have ever worked with
I want to share my experience working with Wendy. Despite the COVID lockdown and worsened immigration climate, she managed to complete our DV case. Even basic things such as taking a photo was a problem back in April, and still, we have got complete support starting from filing the documents to attending the interview. Every time we needed advice, Wendy was very responsive and guided us through the process.
I have previous experience with other immigration attorneys and can tell that Wendy is BY FAR the best.

Attorney Wendy Barlow is amazing!
I retained the services of Ms. Wendy Barlow to help with my immigration case( Asylum to be specific) . As this was a sensitive matter I needed someone that I was comfortable with and confident in their abilities. Ms. Barlow from the very beginning was very thorough, honest and laid it all on the line. Her communication throughout the filing of the forms, the court processes, the trial was always detailed so I knew exactly what to expect. She was successful in helping me adjust my status here and I became a green card holder( one of the GREATEST days of my life) . Several years later I retained Ms. Barlow again to help me file for my citizenship( although I could ha e filed the forms myself as I heard people do all the time) I preferred Ms. Barlows expertise and she also knew my case inside and out. She was again with me every step of the way. She was right there with me in the interview room ( her presence always made me calm). Needless to say I am now a official Citizen of the US ( another wonderful and emotional day for me) . I am so happy to have enlisted the help of Ms. Barlow and her law firm.

Your case will be in great hands with Ms. Barlow. Her ability to dot every "i" and cross every "t" is just unbelievable. It was a pleasure to have her represent our J-1 waiver. We won the case.
Just a wonderful person to interact and work with! Excellent lawyer!
