Posted by Nicole and Christopher | August 31, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Immigration

Perfect example of an inspirational and honest attorney.

Nicole represented my husband immigration case while she was at Spar and Bernstein, she worked very hard and because of her knowledge and experience she was able to help my husband get his residency. We are very grateful for her help in keeping my family together. We wished her all the best in all h...er endeavour.

Hi Nicole and Christopher! It was great working with you! I always remember you guys. It was such a coincidence that you gave the same names as me and my husband and we had your hearing on my birthday. I wish your family all the best!

Nicole Abruzzo

Nicole R. Abruzzo provided me with exemplary legal representation throughout my lengthy Immigration trial. Her diligence, professionalism and can-do zeal kept my spirits up throughout the entire process; our hard-fought victory was well-earned and wouldn't have been possible without Nicole and her bo...undless perseverance. I highly recommend her for anyone who's seeking an Immigration lawyer with A-game to spare and the work ethic to see the process all the way through. Her open-mindedness and understanding of my sensitive situation put me at ease and gave me the confidence to continue down the path towards citizenship.

Excellent Professional Service

Nicole R. Abruzzo at Bibicheff & Associates, P.C. is a very friendly, kind, trustworthy, and professional lawyer. My husband and I have been struggling with immigration issues for 11 years. With that said, for the first time in 11 years - even after we were placed under deportation - we have received... a positive answer on one of our many motions and requests. This positive change occurred only after Nicole R. Abruzzo and other associates at Bibicheff & Associates, P.C. began representing us. These people are very kind, responsive, and are genuinely willing to help. No other lawyers that we have worked with in the past have been as responsive, as willing to answer all of our questions, and seemed as genuine.

A dependable lawyer for work visa.

I have worked with Nicole Abruzzo on several cases which involved Immigration work visas. In each case the visa was granted which is the ultimate goal! It is always a pleasure to work with Ms Abruzzo as she is pleasant and approachable, and always willing to explain things clearly. The documents ...that she produces are well written, they are well organized and she does an extremely detailed and thorough job. On a rather complicated case, she did alot of background research which I think helped the case enormously. All her work is delivered in a timely basis, and she has gone beyond what is expected by helping me while she was on vacation abroad. I look forward to working with her in the future.

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.
