EB-1 Visa application

I’m honored to express my observations about my attorney Licelle Cobrador and her firm, Cobrador and Associates. I’m absolutely satisfied with her service and would recommend her to anyone without any reservations. Ms. Licelle Cobrador is professional to the core. She is knowledgeable, experienced, ...relaible and knows exactly how to work the best way out according to the requirements of individual cases. Coming from Nepal, I was not aware of the process of filing for immigration under the EB-1 category. Ms. Cobrador and her associates explained every step and prepared me to remain patient while all the paperwork was done. She responded to emails promptly and was available on the phone when required.What would one expect of an attorney? Professionalism, capacity to explain the process, excellent paperwork, reasonable fees and a positive outcome! I got them all. Don’t think! Just go to Ms. Licelle Cobrador and leave the rest to her.

EB-1 (extraordinary ability) visa

I hired Attorney Cobrador for my EB-1 visa application. She had come highly recommended, owing to her extensive experience and track record in having such petitions approved. I find her very competent, knowledgeable and reliable. I was initially apprehensive about applying for the extraordinary abili...ty visa, but she studied my case thoroughly, advised me clearly as to the kind of documents, letters, and supporting materials I should get, guided me through the whole process, and helped prepare a solid dossier. We submitted the EB-1 petition in early March, and it was approved about two weeks later.

Excellent handling of EB1 case

I spoke to several lawyers before I decided to submit my EB1 with Licelle. Here's what the other lawyers told me: - That I would have no chance of getting an EB1; - That I'd definitely get an EB1, but they never gave me a sense of how they'd argue my case or why they thought I qualified. It's wor...th keeping in mind that these lawyers would have kept my money whether or not I'd received an EB1. Licelle was a breath of fresh air. She took the time to understand my case before telling me that she did indeed think I'd qualify. Then, she explained to me in concrete terms how she's argue my case. She took the time to consider my unique circumstances before giving her opinion and I saw that this was a lawyer who I could totally trust to do an excellent job. That same diligence, care and intelligence was evident throughout the entire EB1 process. Licelle did a fantastic job on my application. Not only is she a brilliant lawyer, she's also a fantastic person. Applying for a visa is a complicated process but I knew I was in good hands throughout and Licelle was always on hand with an explanation or advice. She was accessible and above all, she truly cared. Licelle and her team are excellent. I'd recommend working with them without hesitation.

Best of the best EB1 Specialist

Liz is a Topnotch Professional. She is a dedicated and attentive professional that I've ever met. Thanks to her, I am a permanent resident (EB1). On the verge of my H1B expiring and no where to go but return to home land, I consulted many lawyers exploring options. I was shown an empty hand everywher...e I went. Then, I met Liz. She listened to my story very patiently and suggested that EB1 was an option that we can go with. She told me I had good credentials but the key thing is how we present it efficiently. She guided me through every step of the process from enhancing my professional profile to helping me how to approach people for recommendations. She is very honest in giving her opinion and doesn't sugar coat anythings. At the end, she gets things done in a very efficient and professional manner. I would gladly recommend her to any one for their immigration purposes. If you hire Liz, you are in good hands.

Dedicated, prompt, diligent, and professional

Licelle is an extremely brilliant, experienced, and level-headed immigration lawyer whose professional solicitude and personal dedication to her clients I found extremely astounding. She was very prompt in all her communications; provided a wealth of information and options for my needs as a client;... was extremely flexible to client needs and timetables; and very professional and erudite in her assessment of strategies and approaches to legal questions. She has a realistic grasp of process, procedure, and outcomes, and did not overstate, overpromise, nor underperform, but actually over-delivered on client results. She was the ideal immigration lawyer to work with for my EB-1A petition, and I would highly recommend her to any future immigration client.
