Job well done

I recommend Frieda Goldstein for all your immigration services. Their expertise, attention to detail, and commitment to clients set them apart. They navigated the complexities of my case with precision, ensuring a smooth process. Their communication was clear, and I felt supported throughout.

Unwavering representation

Frieda and her team are truly experts at immigration law. As a collective unit they foster an environment that makes you feel comfortable and confident while navigating your USCIS journey. They’re honest and practical when it comes to communicating what you should expect and that’s invaluable. ...From consultation to end of process, you’re treated like family. Not just a paying client.

Highly-qualified Attorney

I have to say I was so lucky to have Frieda Goldstein working on my case . Frieda is a super professional attorney and is a very thoughtful and passionate person, I enjoy talking with her. She knows exactly how to solve every immigration issue you may have. Although waited for the final interview for... a very long period of time because of the pandemic. Surprisingly, thanks to Frieda’s guidance for the interview. the final interview went super smoothly. My case had already been approved by USCIS the next morning. Freida has a wonderful team with her. Every staff member is kind and responsible . I strongly recommend you to work with Frieda if you have have immigration related issues. She will not only be your highly-qualified attorney, but she will also become your sweet friend .

THANK YOU - VAWA and Green Card Approved

Frieda Goldstein is an amazing lawyer! She is knowledgeable, professional and very empathetic. Frieda and her office got my VAWA petition and green card approved without any RFEs. They reviewed and filed my VAWA petition that consisted of 300+ pages in less than a month, and the petition was approve...d in 14 months. Frieda also prepared me for the green card interview and stayed in touch with me throughout the whole process which took 2+ years. What differentiates Frieda and her team from other lawyers, is that Frieda and Tina (paralegal) were always available to answer any questions I had. They replied to my emails the same day, sometimes even on Sundays! Thank you so much Frieda and Tina for helping me to start a new chapter in my life. I will always refer my friends who need assistance with immigration matters to you. THANK YOU!!!

Highly Recommended!!!

I was referred to Frieda Goldstein by a family friend in April 2016 and from the very moment I walked out of my initial consultation, I knew right away that if anyone would be representing me, it would be her. I hired her because she demonstrates vast experience in immigration law, showed empathy aft...er learning about my situation and very passionate about what she does. One of the best things about working with Frieda is that she’s accessible and always available to answer my concerns each time I reached out to her via email or phone. With her help, my immigration case came to a successful close in summer of 2019. I highly recommend Frieda Goldstein and her firm, Pozo Goldstein LLP.
