Removal of the conditional residency after the divorce

I had a pleasure working with Frieda Goldstein on my case for the removal of the conditional residency after the divorce. Originally, I filled all paperwork on my own 2 years after receiving my first green card, but after receipt of RFE letter from immigration I decided to get a lawyer. I spent a lot... of time researching for a right attorney and based on all reviews and recommendations I decided that Pozo Goldstein Attorneys were the right people to contact. Several attorneys had advised me that my case was too complex and couldn't guarantee that I would pass my second interview. (In short - I received my green card thru a marriage with American citizen, me and my former spouse were living in two different states due to the work and college obligations, and after 2.5 years of marriage I filled for a divorce). The whole RFE response package to the immigration was very thoroughly prepared, organized and I got very well prepared by attorney for my interview. There is nothing negative that I could say about my whole experience working with Ms. Goldstein, very polite, organized, well informed, always available via e-mail & text messages, positive person which gave me a lot of confidence and positive energy prior my interview. I would absolutely recommend Frieda Goldstein for any of your immigration needs or advises.

The Best Immigration Attorney To Have By Your Side

Frieda Goldstein is an extremely knowledgable and respected immigration attorney. Mrs Goldstein guided us through a very complicated immigration case which resulted in getting U.S. Citizenship. Her understanding and compassion, coupled with her tenacity and dedication, makes Frieda the attorney yo...u want fighting for you. Thank goodness we found her!! We are so grateful to Frieda and her team at Pozo- Goldstein. No words can express our gratitude.

Awesome attorney

My husband and I hired Mrs Goldstein for a complicated case. We've worked with serveral other lawyers and each time our case was denied. Due to her work and knowledge our case was finally approved. Mrs Goldstein and her staff always kept us informed every step of the way. I would recommend her to... ANYONE who is in need of a immigration lawyer.
