From the moment I walked into your office I knew i can put my faith in Barbara Brandes. Her professionalism is atonishing. She walked me threw each step and made sure I had every document in check. She fought for my case until the end and I thank her for the job well done, and my case wasnt easy, in ...allowing me to receive my Green card. I appreciate her and her team for this new opportunity Ive been granted.

ONE OF A KIND

Barbara J. Brandes, is the most professional, honest, straight forward, and intelligent immigration attorney I have ever met. She can literally do the impossible. The support and information she provides cannot be found anywhere else. I would recommend her without a second thought. I would not trust... anyone but Ms.Brandes. Anyone looking for immigration advice, information or just some support, I recommend her. You will leave her office with a smile and courage.

Experienced and effective lawyer

I am a colleague of Ms. Brandes. I have an immigration practice. When I need to refer an immigration case to another lawyer, I often refer cases to Ms. Brandes. She is an able and experienced lawyer with whom I trust my reputation.

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"Barbara J. Brandes is one of the top immigration lawyers in New York City if not the entire country. She is a member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association and is active in the community. She volunteers for numerous pro-immigrant groups providing free consultations and legal advice to those who cannot afford to pay for a lawyer. She practices all areas of immigration law and is known and respected as an expert in the field. In my 5 years working with her, she took on numerous difficult and complex cases and won countless cases using her advanced experience in the field, unique, advanced, and creative legal arguments, and her never-take-no-for-an-answer attitude. No immigration lawyer will fight harder for a client than Barbara, and no lawyer will "give it to you straight" the way Barbara will; never giving a potential or current client false hope but always basing her theory and predicted success rate of the case in her experience and also reality."
