One of New York City's leading immigration attorneys

Cheryl was among the 3 immigration attorneys I consulted with. We decided to hire her for the Adjustment of Status application because she asked the right questions that the other attorneys didn't. She also determined we could successfully file my wife's citizenship application without an attorney. S...he didn't want to get paid for something we could do by ourselves. She will do her due diligence before taking on your case. Cheryl and her staff are highly professional. Our case was properly filed and approved without a hitch.

Best lawyer for complicated cases

I met Cheryl thanks to a recommendation from another lawyer that told me she was the best lawyer I could find to handle my case.. I had a situation of overstay and there was a possibility of having my green card denied. Cheryl was very very knowledgeable since day 1 and everything she recommended ...was the best to do. We passed through moments that could have been worst but thanks to Cheryl and Lindsey everything for resolved successfully. Cheryl and Lindsey are the kind of lawyers you need by your side specially if your case is complicated. She really knows the law and all the interpretations it could have. Totally recommend her Thanks Cheryl again for your great work. We will always be thankful to you

Making your dreams come true

Life of an immigrant is not the easiest path and you need people like Cheryl to help you to walk it. She took over my intricate case with no problem, and I am beyond grateful for her guardianship. My dream was to legally live and work in America after my graduation. With the right strategy and good... amount of persistence we were able to correct my status and get me back to the country on the H-1B Specialty Occupation visa . I highly recommend Cheryl and her staff if you need an immigration help. Invest in your dreams!

Extremely competent & calm

I was so impressed by Cheryl and her team. I worked with them over the course of two+ years. I started out with a tricky case - perhaps not utterly tricky to them but for me and my family it felt at times very worrisome & fearful. Each time I interacted with Cheryl, she was fully present with me an...d gave me the honest truth of what the situation was at every turn. She did not sugarcoat anything. At the same time, she NEVER made it about money. I never got the sense that I was being sold any sort of service or extra fees. I thought that was quite remarkable in these times of transactional dealings. I find it especially laudable in an area where much money is probably being made by elements of fear tactics. I felt like I could 100% trust her expertise and with her calmness she put me at ease. When it came to prep for the naturalization interview, I had the opportunity to work with Lindsey Gauzza. She was excellent as well. She was thorough, took her time, was fully present, gave great guidance, and again was so calm that I felt completely at ease. I am now a US citizen and am extremely thankful to Cheryl and her team. I can wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone who needs help on immigration matters and especially to ones that may have a tricky situation at hand. Cheryl likes a good challenge and is truly inspiring how she fights the good fight.

Worth every penny - do not go through immigration without Cheryl!

Cheryl helped my husband and I navigate his green card approval. What started as a straightforward case faced seemingly endless delays after Trump was elected, and Cheryl and her team were there to help us every step of the way. I honestly do not think we would have been able to navigate this confu...sing, overwhelming, and sometimes seemingly impossible situation without her. I cannot say enough about Cheryl and her team. They are thorough, professional, and readily available. Better yet, they truly care. My husband and I are endlessly grateful to them for holding our hands and guiding us through this every step of the way. I cannot recommend them enough, and highly you recommend hiring an attorney as talented and knowledgeable as Cheryl to counsel you through your immigration situation.
