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!

The Best Immigration Firm in Town!

Cobrador and Associates PLLC is undeniably the best immigration firm in town! Words are not enough to express my gratitude for the wonderful work and dedication that they showed as they managed my immigration case. They guided me every step of the way. They made me feel that I am in good hands throug...h clear and timely communication. With their hard work, efficiency and extremely organized document preparation, my case was approved in less than 5 months! I have waited for almost 20 years, and had worked with several lawyers in the past— but none of them would even come close to the professionalism and care for clients that Licelle and her team exhibited. Getting my green card is such a sweet victory which marks a new beginning for me. Now I can live my life without having to worry. My self-esteem and how i relate to others have changed significantly. And as of this writing, I am celebrating with my family whom I have not seen for almost two decades. To Atty. Licelle, Mampi, Chandrika and Atty. Gonzalez, thank you very much for all your help. I wish you all the best! May you continue to help others achieve their American dream. Give Cobrador and Associates your 100% trust, and I assure they will deliver results!

Best Lawyer experience

I am extremely lucky to have been referred to Licelle for my Visa application. Not only is she very professional, reliable and fast, she is also caring and honest which is a rarity. I am sure I wouldn't have gotten my Visa without the help of Cobrador & Associates. Even in these difficult times with ...immigration in the US, Licelle managed to successfully guide me in the right direction. She was there every step of the way. I couldn't be happier with their services. Would recommend 100%!

Hands down, the best!

Licelle took on my case after I became very frustrated with the poor communication with my previous attorneys. I am so glad she did! In two weeks, we prepped my entire O1 and communicated 10x more than I had spoken with my previous lawyers in almost 6 months. She called, helped me when I felt lost an...d confused, guided my case personally and knowledgeably, through some very intricate and tricky processes, stayed in touch constantly and always kept in mind that I am a concerned human being trying to figure out my future, not just a case number. Thanks to Licelle, today I got my O1 approved! Would absolutely recommend.
