Immigration law

He was thorough and handled himself well in court .. very honest and open .. trusted servant . Helped me out a lot .. I was up for deportation, it was a long road and I’m still here and got my citizenship.the court was difficult but he saw it through . Thank goodness…

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Dismissive and rude, kept pointing the finger at me instead of helping.

Called for a consultation, however was met with a very dismissive lawyer, stating that it's my fault that I didn't know about seeking for asylum when entering the country. Genuinely thought I'd be able to get help from them but they said I was helpless and that I'm on my own, in quite a harsh manner ...too.

A very grateful client of Lawrence Mester Linden

Mr. Linden was a beacon of hope to my family at a time when our options appeared limited and the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed nigh on impossible. Not only was he able to provide us with a very satisfactory solution, his encouraging and empathetic demeanor offered emotional succor to... myself and those I care about most. My family and I are eternally grateful for his service. Mr. Linden is an excellent attorney who takes his profession very seriously. I hereby recommend Mr. Linden without any hesitation.

The best lawyer

He has been working with my family since 2011 that we hired him for a deportation case that we had with my mom, he helped us out the best way possible to do a prosecutorial discretion and after a while he helped me resolve the issue, I filed for my parents to be legal residents and he was the best on... helping us achieving this goal, everything was really smooth and I’m really glad and thankful that we got him as an attorney, I will definitely recommend him for everything. Thank you ver much Mr. Linden, its been a pleasure to have you as an attorney

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.
