I-140 Submission and Approval

Licelle did an excellent job guiding me through the I-140 process and preparing all the necessary documents for a successful approval. Her team kept everything organized and helped me gather additional evidence as required for specific criteria. Licelle also assisted me in filing for premium processi...ng, which went smoothly — I received approval in just 10 days. Thank you, Licelle!

Exceptional Legal Guidance and Support for the H1B and EB1-A from Cobrador and Associates!

I have had the privilege of working with Atty. Licelle and her incredible team at Cobrador and Associates since 2019, beginning with my H1B applications and later, my EB1A petition. Throughout this journey, Atty. Licelle, along with Mampi, Chandrika, Sakar, and the rest of the team, has provided unwa...vering support and expert guidance. One of the standout aspects of my experience was the meticulous attention to detail that Atty. Licelle brought to my EB1A petition. Our submission was a monumental effort, involving over 2,000 pages of documentation—an impressive 30 pounds in weight, which stands as the firm's record. This level of dedication and thoroughness is a testament to Atty. Licelle’s commitment to her clients’ success. As a fellow Filipino, Atty. Licelle understood the unique challenges and long journey that I had undertaken, which made the process feel more personal and meaningful. There aren’t many Filipinos who navigate the EB1A process, and I am immensely proud to be among the few who have successfully done so, especially under the guidance of someone who truly understands my background. It’s worth noting that Atty. Licelle is initially strict, but this approach is incredibly beneficial which we found in the end. It challenges you to truly assess how much you’re willing to fight for your goals, and in my case, it was the driving force behind our successful approval. My wife and I are deeply grateful for the expertise and support we received from Cobrador and Associates. We look forward to continuing this journey with them, knowing we are in the best hands possible. If you’re looking for a legal team that combines professionalism, personal understanding, and a relentless pursuit of success, I highly recommend Cobrador and Associates.

Best decision i have made in my immigration process

Atty Licelle is an expert in EB1 filing. Very patient in answering all my questions even if i keep going around in circles. Took me two years to decide on my expansion plans but she was very understanding and assuring throughout the decision process. Very thorough and precise. Love her no nonsense, a...nd no BS approach. Responds right away. Very knowledgeable in her field. Cant recommend her enough!! If only i can retain her for all my legal concerns, i would!

Cobrador and Associates will work tirel

When I started mulling over my immigration plans on March 2024, Ms. Licelle came very highly recommended to me. So I started with a simple consult with her and from then on, I knew I was in good hands. Cobrador and Associates has been very diligent and kind throughout my entire EB-1A application p...rocess. I really appreciate Ms. Licelle's open line of communication with me, being always available and reachable to answer my most basic questions. The US immigration system is a big, complicated monster. But Ms. Licelle has been organized from the start, helping me keep my focus on what documentation I need and following strictly our timeline. She was clear and direct, succinct but also very kind on her approach to clients, a sign that she understand every immigrant's predicaments and challenges. And that makes the biggest difference. Ms. Licelle, and the rest of the firm, delivered on time and as scheduled, and now I was just got my EB-1 approval. They have my full recommendation and huge respect for the job that they do for others!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND WORKING WITH THE TEAM

Licelle was highly recommended by a friend and I am so happy that I did not hesitate to avail of her and her team's services. I needed help with my mom's immigration status and the team has been efficient, clear, and extremely helpful every step of the way. Each document sent was very organized and... the steps we needed to take were easily laid out. Licelle and Mampi responded pretty quickly with every question we had. Licelle also has made herself available during her personal vacation while helping with my mom's interview process. The service was top notch and I will highly recommend her to anyone.
