One of the best lawyers

Wendy is an excellent immigration lawyer. Before I hired Wendy, I went through multiple lawyers who did not couldn't figure out where to begin with my case. However, Wendy is the first lawyer that I worked with who is genuinely caring and takes her time to listen to you. She helped me sort out my ver...y complicated immigration case, and that required her to really analyze and interpret different parts of the entire case. She is very knowledgable of the law as well. To continue, she is very approachable and is always available to talk about any of my worries and concerns. All I ever had to do was email her or call her and she would always respond as soon as possible. Whenever I had to schedule an appointment with her, she would always make sure that I was able to sit down with her as soon as possible. I have never worked with a lawyer as passionate, responsible, and patient as her. She is one of the best, if not THE best, lawyer ever!

Wendy Barlow is Unbelievable!

Wendy Barlow is a lawyer you don't want to pass up. No amount of reviews could give you the level of satisfaction one feels from hiring her. Unaware of Grinberg & Siegel's history of Immigration work. I sought out their help. I was paired with Wendy Barlow. After seeking out many lawyers and not on...e raising even a finger to research what I was facing, I was giving up hope. Living her in NY unable to travel, unable to work, unable to have health insurance. I am the child of an American Soldier born abroad. For 17 years I have been trying to prove I am an American Citizen. After my father passed away my hopes of proving anything were slim. Wendy jumped right into it and requested documents to see what she could do for me. After digging around and finding a solution very quickly we began putting my case together. For the past 2 years she has been my go to woman. She filed every request, got back to me promptly. She has responded to any questions or concerns quickly and clearly. She is professional, attentive, respectful, and most importantly good at her job. If you need a warrior lawyer that will at least try, then Wendy is the one you want to hire. We were just told that Immigration has approved my case. I have proven with Wendy's diligent work that I am a citizen from birth. After 17 years I will be reunited with my mother for the first time. I will be able to work, go to school, and provide a better life for my son. I will always recommend Wendy for anyone seeking Immigration help. If you need help, hit the call button and ask for Wendy Barlow, you won't be disappointed!

Good and reasonable immigration lawyer

I was browsing online for an immigration lawyer to help me with my case,because I was denied the petition for my permanent resident after waiting almost a year for an appointment.i had 20 something days to responds back and petition for my case to be remain open so I can gather more evidence. I calle...d Wendy and she was so helpful on the phone.she spoke to me about an hour and gave me options without saying " I have to charge you a fee first" then give you information. She made me to believe in an immigration lawyer again.now I can say there is such thing as a good,responsible, and knowledgeable lawyer that is not all about the money out there.she got right on my case and was on top of it.she helped expedite evidence that took me over 15 years to try and resolved.i was able to get my work permit in less than 3 months and received my permant resident in a less than a year.i was very surprised.she and her team kept me informed in everything and she always responded back on time.i didn't have to chase and wonder about anything.theres no hidden fees.she is the real deal.she is very professional and knowledgable in what she does.i will recommend this lawyer to anyone. I'll definitely go back to her whenever I'm ready to become a citizen. The best move I had made for my case.

asylum case

I am so thankful to wendy barlow for handling my case. after so many fail lawyers who just took my money and delay my case for years and still has not done a thing for me, I decided to take matters in my own hands and seek others lawyers . I went to five different consultation and when I met wendy ...I just knew she was the one. she was patience and so easy to talk to. you can call her as many times and yet she never gets tired of you. all of my calls was answer . she is a joy to talk to and always make her clients her business. within one month I receved 3 different papers from the immigration department and my interview. wow that was a surprise and happiness at the same time. wish I had her in the first place. she knows her job well and did it to the best of her client needs. she is a professional in her field and I would love to recommend everyone who is in need and do not know where to turn, she would never leave you hangin. if she knows you have a case she will not hestiate to let you know and handle it promptly and most reliable she will work her life out and the reward is breath taking. i am so please with her and without her I will not have my status today. I am a legal resident now. I love wendy barlow. she is the best of the best.

Impressive Rebuttal Reply for Notice of Intent to Deny Letter

I was desperately looking for professional help when I received my NOID letter only two days after my asylum interview. I had prepared my asylum application and attended the interview by myself without an attorney, which was a big mistake. I had only 16 days to reply and I did not know any immigratio...n attorney. I booked an online consultation from Ms. Barlow office website after I've seen people's reviews on avvo.com. During the online consultation, I was provided with a good advice about what were the important points to focus on and explanations about why they were important. I realized that if I was to write the rebuttal reply on my own, I would have focused on explaining points that were already accepted by the immigration officer and left the legally important points. I decided to let Ms. Barlow write me the rebuttal letter and I had few days left so I signed the contract and send my documents online. Until today, I am so impressed and thankful that she could put together such a strong rebuttal argument within just two days and mailed it to the asylum office in time. I did not get my asylum approval until 8 months later. During which Ms. Barlow had followed-up with me and answered my questions by email. I am so satisfied with my experience with Ms. Barlow work and especially the rapid reply for my concerns.
