We got a positive result

Since we already had an unpleasant experience with an immigration lawyer in the past, we were choosing the next lawyer very carefully. Two friends and an interpreter we knew advised us lawyer Lana Schimmel. I asked all three of them the question: "Why exactly should she help?" There were three answer...s: “Because she is the best in her business!”, “You have only two options: Lana or her sister Natasha - they are the best in New York!”, “Because she is Lana Schimmel!” And we made the right choice. Lana really helped. She put a lot of time and effort into our case. There were many meetings, work, preparations. Therefore, we got a positive result. We are very grateful to the entire Schimmel & Samus law office. Besides Lana, I would like to highlight the translator Svetlana Minevich, who professionally and in the shortest possible time translated a lot of our documents. Today, if I would be asked, which lawyer should I go to? I will also say the name of Lana Schimmel. On the question "Why her?" I have the same three arguments: “Because she is the best in her field!”, “You have only two options: Lana or her sister Natasha - they are the best in New York!”, “Because she is Lana Schimmel!”

Excellent Lawyers

Schimmel and Samus got my papers in no time. Highly recommended no question about it. Friend was waiting 17 years for green card. After Lana took her case she got green card in no time and was able to go to Europe and see her father before he died.

Professional and compassionate lawyer

Prior to meeting Lana, I approached few lawyers and wasn’t satisfied with them. I was about to select one until a friend of mine introduced me to Lana. She answered to all my questions professionally and I could sense high level of expertise in her field, so I signed the contract without hesitating. ...She brings empathy to the legal profession in addition to her strong legal reasoning and analysis. I know her to be conscientious and competent. Lana deeply cares about her work and her clients and works diligently. She is honest, reasonable, level headed and trustworthy. I am very thankful to my friend for referring her. I would undoubtedly recommend Lana and the services of her firm to anyone seeking proficient, passionate and effective legal counsel.
