If you are looking for an immigration lawyer, look no further...

Barbara is an excellent immigration lawyer. She is very professional, knowledgeable… It was great to have her by our side during the interview. She made sure we were well prepared with all the documents and was there every step of the way. I would recommend her to all my friends and anyone who have t...o deal with the Immigration office.

The best

Barbara is the most knowledgeable attorney in this field. She was recommended to me by my business partner. She took care of his case in the 90's. My case was a petition for my spouse. It took me over 2 years because I had to redo a previous divorce however everything Barbara advised us to do was on ...the money. Excellent work by Barbara and her team. I am a CEO of a Municipal Construction Company and I would highly recommend Barbara to all my friends and colleagues.

Job well done

I want to thank Barbara and team for their professional and efficient service they offered in helping me to get through with my green card. They made it so easy and stress free I must admit I am still amazed. Thank you and your hard working team..God bless June

Great immigration lawyer!!

My wife and i initially engaged Barbara on a consultation about a year ago and she was able to use her infinite knowledge and a number of contacts to advise us successfully. We were so pleased with the service we received that we hired her last month to represent us at my green card interview. Ev...en though we engaged Barbara and her team relatively late they still did a great job in preparing us and managing our expectations. Special mention to Gurhan Heinhert that greatly assisted.

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."
