A transformative journey with truly exceptional Rakhel Milstein and her extraordinary team

I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for the exceptional legal service provided by Rakhel Milstein and her outstanding team. Her unwavering commitment, profound knowledge of immigration law, and compassionate approach have been pivotal in securing my green card, marking a transformative cha...pter in my life. From the outset, Rakhel showcased an extraordinary level of professionalism. Her meticulous attention to detail, combined with a never-give-up attitude, exemplified her dedication to achieving the best possible outcome for her clients. Rakhel’s strategic and insightful approach to navigating the complexities of my case demonstrated an excellent understanding of the complex legal landscape. It was evident that she not only possesses deep expertise but also a true passion for her work, consistently going above and beyond to ensure a successful application process. What truly sets Rakhel apart is her commitment to putting her clients first. Her open communication, timely responses, and clear explanations alleviated the inherent stress associated with immigration matters. Rakhel took the time to understand my individual circumstances, approaching the legal process with a rare blend of humanity that made me feel genuinely cared for. Throughout the entire journey, Rakhel tackled daunting challenges that we faced with resilience and perseverance. This unyielding determination, coupled with her remarkable competence, instilled confidence and reassurance during my arduous journey. I wholeheartedly recommend Rakhel to anyone seeking an attorney with an exceptional level of professionalism, steadfast commitment, and a genuine concern for her clients.

Experienced. Results-oriented and Kind

I hired Rakhel and her team to help me prepare my O-1 visa application during possibly the worst time ever for doing so: right through the first pandemic year of 2020 (which means not a lot of OPT related opportunities). Rakhel was thorough, listened to what I’ve got and addressed ALL my questions. ...I was very anxious about my case since it was the first time but her team was always available for calls and reviews. It was great working on my application and seeing it come to shape. When we filed, I got approved in just 10 days and couldn’t be more thankful to her and the team to have helped me despite the crazy pandemic times we’re living. Thank You, Rakhel!!

SIMPLY THE BEST

Rakhel Speyer Milstein is by far the best immigration lawyer I have worked with. She is professional, meticulous and was ALWAYS available when I had a question or concern about my case. Her staff was also knowledgeable and extremely helpful during this lengthy process. I highly recommend Rakhel and... her firm for ALL of your immigration matters.

Immigration Law Excellence!

I've now been working with The Assadi and Milstein law firm in regard to my immigration needs for a number of years. In fact they were recommended to me be another happy client of theirs and and thank god for them both. My work and business has me dealing with all kinds of lawyers in many fields and ...my experience with Rakhel and her immigration team has been nothing short of excellent! They're ability to understand and deliver in such a fashion is no doubt a credit to their stellar legal knowledge - which I think is unrivaled! Thank you guys!

Exceptional Experience!

I got Rakhel's contact from a good business mentor, to have her work with my employer for H1B and PERM cases, over a course of 4 years. Rakhel and her team were far more communicative, supportive, and informative that I could have ever asked for. Being located on both sides of the country (I reside i...n Oregon), timezones never posed a challenge. She was always responsive, and with great positive attitude towards all my questions, most of them probably silly ones. Anyways, I have recommended her to multiple friends already, and will continue to do so.
