O1 visa

I have recently got O-1visa through Jensen and Jensen. I had consultations with a couple of lawyers, and Peter was very honest and knowledgeable. Other lawyers told me that I would probably not get the visa or even could not due to my complicated situation, however, Peter and Yumi made it. He succes...sfully strategized and maximized the chance to get it along with constant support and explanation with Yumi. Thank you so much!

I recommend Jensen and Jensen

I am very happy with Jensen Jensen. I recommend Ms Laurie she is patient and knowledgable .She helped me out when my h1b and H14 got complicated. She worked efficiently in a short amount of time, accepting suggestions , handing out my application. I received my approved just between a few days wit...h premium process. The same goes with Ms Erin, she is patient and kind, she spend time on the phone explaining all the details regarding my case, when I first started the H1 process. Thanks you!

''MUCHAS GRACIAS''

After visiting a couple of lawyers, I was recommended by a friend to work my O-1 Artist visa case with Jensen & Jensen. Out of all of the other lawyers I met Jensen & Jensen was the most prepared, honest and fast of them all. Immediately I knew I could trust them and right away started working with t...hem. I am very thankful that I got my O-1 visa approved and exhort anyone to trust them. Special thanks to Erin Yang for always being so responsive, informative and always willing to help with what she can. I can't thank you enough.

Joyce his paralegal extremely unprofessional

Please do NOT trust this lawyer and his pareja Joyce. They ghosted me and ruined my case as his paralegal never submits the documents and you have to push and call her to do the job. Very unprofessional and made me lost lots of money and complicated my immigration process. Honestly I think all the re...views here are fake.

Avoid this lawyer

The lawyer, Peter Jensen, forgot what we discussed a day ago, a week ago, etc., and then asked me the same thing or blamed me for not providing requested documents, which I submitted weeks ago. The simple questions marked urgent was not answered over a week. He the withdrew from my case at the last ...minute when he failed to provide documents that were needed for my application. I was lucky to find another lawyer who was very kind to help me out. He has not refunded my payment.

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.
