Excellent Attorney for International Transactions and Immigration Matters

I've been a client of Mrs. Pinhas in many different issues. First, we retained her to incorporate our business in NY. She provided a superb work! The process was really fast and easy. After that we retained her to review and negotiate contracts and to overview the international transactions involving... the importation of Brazilian products for our import/export company. She was perfect for that job because she understands the laws of both countries U.S. and Brazil. After that we retained her again to take care of the H-1B visas of the Brazilian folks we've hired to work with us. I totally recommend Mrs. Pinhas. She is extremely friendly with superb professional ethics. She gets the job done! Her languages skills and experience overseas help a lot when it comes to matters involving international transactions.

Excellent lawyer

Mrs. Pinhas has helped my family many times with different sort of issues, since we live in Brazil and have investments in the USA. We hired her services to negotiate Real State contracts and take care of all the international transactions involved. We still consult with her every time we have questi...ons regarding those investments. We also hired her services to assist us with some Immigration issues, as my son applied for student visa to attend the UPenn. She is very professional and always responds promptly to the concerns of the client.

The best immigration attorney ever!!!!!

Dotora Vitoria es la mejor abogada! She is very attentive and always answers the phone (so different than my previous lawyer). She successfully handled the process for my green card through my marriage with a U.S. citizen. It was a complex case since I needed a waiver (601A). Plus, it was much more c...omfortable to deal with the lawyer in Spanish all the time. I highly recommend her services!

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.
