VERY happy client

Rachel has given me a life that I wouldn't have known before. She is by far the most patient and even keeled person I have ever met and because of these attributes (and many more) she is a successful lawyer. When I first came to her, I was alone and confused. Rachel gave me hope and the confidence to... go against the grain and fight for my rights. I can officially say that I am now a United States resident. I am 100% legal and no one can tell me otherwise. I owe all this to Rachel Einbund. Again, thank you Rachel for being who you are and for never giving up.

She is terrific

From the moment we met Rachel.,she made us feel comfortable about out case. She took the time to Explain How the process works and the length of time involved. She was completely upfront and. Direct . She displayed a great deal of knowledge and he was all extremely understanding. We have no r...eservations in recommending. Her to our friends or anyone else for that matter. She is a young dynamic attorney and in our minds she ROCKS!

Review for Rachel Sari Einbund

Rachel has been working on my case for about 8 months. I could not have asked for a better person. Besides her qualifications and excellent work ethics, Rachel has made the process the least stressful possible. Rachel and her team keep me informed of every detail, and she is always there when I have... a question or concern. Highly recommend her services.

Sincere and passionate attorney

We can’t say enough good things about Rachel Einbund. Her welcoming and easy-going nature made us feel comfortable as soon as we made our first appointment. She was sensitive and understanding of all our issues and patiently answered our numerous questions. She addressed all the possible difficulties... in the case and assuaged our doubts. Rachel was always available to us anytime of the day or night and she kept us well informed of any and all progress. Our case file, carefully prepared by Rachel, was so thorough that even the interviewing immigration officer was impressed and made a comment about it. Because of her we can enjoy our lives without any fear for which we are so very grateful.

Rachel did an outstanding job, far beyond my expectations.

I was very surprised by the amount of dedication and care Rachel has put into my case. I've been working with many attorneys in the past and I've never seen attorney who would get to know my case better that myself.. Rachel done all the necessary research and record retrieval on my behalf and sug...gested very honest answers, and she always choose the most economical path where possible. I was always informed about my case progress, pros and cons. Demonstrated outstanding knowledge of the law, and she even intuitively predicted exact questions I will be asked during my interview with INS considering my situation.

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.
