Excellent Attorney with knowledge and expertise in her field!

I had an immigration matter and decided to do an extensive online research on immigration lawyers in New York City. This exercise led me to Frieda Goldstein. (Yes, the reviews are spot on!) Frieda Goldstein is an expert in her field. She is very professional, easy to talk to and provided exception...al advice and responses throughout the process. Also, I was impressed with the quality, speed and efficiency of how my case was handled and give special kudos to her support team. I had an excellent experience and outcome - all in all, I have no hesitation in recommending Frieda Goldstein, Pozo Goldstein, LLP.

Excellent services

The law office of Freida Goldstein is highly recommended. Very professional and knowledgeable. Prompt at responding and very detailed. The case was hopeless but they gave me hope and the case was won.I am still in awe. I will market for this office voluntarily. Excellent service . Thank you so much... .

The most knowledgeable, competent and likable lawyer.

Frieda is a great lawyer. She personally helped my wife and I through successful green card process. Her detailed prep work before filing applications and interviews is the hallmark of an attentive lawyer. Frieda was always very responsive via email, phone and in person. We had many last minute quest...ions and she was quick to respond with insightful answers. I would definitely recommend Frieda to anyone that needs a great immigration lawyer.

Got my green card :)

My case was a little complicated no lawyer wanted to get involve! Here they told me that they can help me so I stayed... And I'm happy I did! They help through the whole process answer all my questions till I received my GREEN CARD. Thank you!

Great results

Frieda is great at what she does, she has all the answers. She's easy to contact (some lawyers don't respond) and keep in touch. She's quick at responding as well at my questions. She gave me good tips on studying for the civic exam. I worked with her on my application for naturalization through marr...iage to a US citizen. My case went pretty smoothly, no real big issues! We filed end of Feb and I got my citizenship end of July (but this is only because I postponed my ceremony for a month), otherwise, it would have been end of June, total of 4 months. My only tip is do bring everything they request for you to bring for the interview, I didn't have my "utility bill" with me and ended up having to run around in the city for 2 hours to gather a list of items and run back to the interviewer to submit same day (I was lucky my interviewer was nice enough to accept same day), otherwise, my case would have been delayed. Just some tips!
