A real partner to success

I hired Rakhel and her team to get a 01 Visa in Spring 2021. It was still very complex to get a working visa approved. Rakhel and Ryan did miracles, guiding me through every step of this challenging process. They answered e-mails extremely fast (with clear answers and directions within one or two ho...urs, no more). It was not an easy way as we got a first RFE and had to change strategy at some point, but my O1 application was approved in only three months of hard work! I felt very supported from start to finish. I feel fortunate to have hired Rakhel and knew I could rely on her and her team in total confidence. I was very stressed by timing as I started the process late, but she took the challenge to make it happen in the short time we had. She was very empathetic with me and could even manage my (very) high-stress level. I am very grateful for what she did for my family and me and loved how she supported me to reach my goal. I will not hesitate to work with her in the future again. I really believe she can make your dream come true as she did for me -with Ryan who was such a patient and kind person with me in this difficult process.

Very professional!

I went to Assadi and Milstein after another NYC firm couldn't provide an attorney for my deportation hearing and never informed me that my now ex attorney was disbarred for professional misconduct. I didn't have an attorney for my hearing and lost 3K that i paid them. So 5 days before my hearing i ha...d to find another firm to represent my removal proceedings case in NYC immigration court. A friend of mine recommended Assadi and Milstein. i went for a consultation and was really impressed that within 5 days prior to my hearing everything was ready and good to go. They were always on top of everything so i was confident that my case would be a winner. Finally its over and i received my green card and if you are in removal you should consider this firm.

She does know her way around all differant immigration cases and she gets the job done before you know it.

The case filing process might take a bit longer than the usual process you might have in mind but be sure that it is for the best result of your case and it is worth every second and she does know how to get the job done at the end of the day. I would love to work with her on my future immigration ca...ses and I do recommend her to my friends interested in migrating to U.S.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
