Barbara J. Brandes

In 2018, I appeared in front of immigration where my asylum status and work permit were taken. I had a previous lawyer whom gladly took the money but did not do any work to help appeal the decision. From 2018 up to the present time, 6 long years, I was unable to work since I no longer had my work p...ermit. I have had great support and help from friends, family, church members to raise funds to obtain the money needed for application fees, documentation and the previous lawyer. Since then I have been working diligently to obtain all the necessary documentation and complying with all the requests by immigration. Fast Forward to May of 2023, all documents were certified and received by USCIS. After months and months of having a pending status, with zero ability to speak with a representative at their office, I was getting frustrated since there had not been word regarding the status of my case. I met Barbara Brandes unexpectedly and our paths were meant to cross. She heard my story and the length of time it has taken for my case status to still be pending. She immediately got involved and was calling immigration to find out why my case was at a standstill. Come to find out it was all still pending because my medical documentation was not even attached to my case because it was sitting in the mail receiving, an entire year later. Then in two weeks’ time she was able to get my case resolved and now I have my green card!

Trust what I'm telling you, ,Barbara Brandes will get you your Grencard. She is very dedicated and will persevere till your case is resolved.I spent alot of money going to other lawyers for 3 decades and Barbara was the only one that really fought for me till I got my Greencard. She knows her... stuff and won't let you down.

Attorney Brandes resolved my marriage-based adjustment of status case, which was pending at USCIS since July 2018. First time, I have entered her office on 28th March 2022 and yesterday, on May 23rd, I received my ten-years green card. If I can describe Attorney Brandes in one word, this word would b...e efficient. She understands how the USCIS's people think, she knows the law and she has 40 years of experience in the field. Also, she is intelligent and straightforward....very straightforward. In summary: her fees are reasonable, her support is priceless. If you want your case to be resolved efficiently - hire Attorney Brandes. This is the lesson, which I, as an immigrant, have learned after four years of struggling in New York.

This has been the worst experience I’ve ever had with any attorney, I hired Barbara J Brandes on March 31st 2021 I had to do a consultation over the phone where I shared background information with her because I was trying to obtain citizenship she then told me that she deals with case like this an t...hat I qualified for her services, I paid her the price she requested for her service in full upfront I may have spoken to this woman a total of 5 times in the entire year, everytime I spoke to this woman she didn’t hesitate in calling me a criminal, everytime I spoke with her she forgot the status of my case , she continued to call me a criminal an after doing absolutely nothing for me she expressed frustration an suggested that I hire an Attourney in the state in which I live, she kept calling me a criminal an stated that she should proceed to do a federal background check on me, I’ve paid my dept to society long ago but I felt lower than dirt the way this woman talked to me it brought me to tears. I would highly recommend if you are a minority or a man or woman of color, That YOU DO NOT GO TO THIS WOMAN FOR ANY OF HER SERVICES, I feel horrible after my experience with this woman Barbara J Brandes

I met Barbara a few years ago. I was at my wits end and desperately needed the services of a great immigration lawyer. Even though my case was a difficult one which no one else would take she decided she would try. It took a while, but somehow she found some obscure law that made it possible for me t...o receive my green card. Today I am so thankful. It might have been a bit expensive but it was totally worth it. This has changed my life forever. Thank you Barbara
