Best immigration attorney!

Edit was the perfect attorney for us! After talking and having no success with other immigration attorneys, we have found Edit, and what a difference she made in our lives. She is very professional, responsive, knowledgable, and detail oriented. She works hard and is efficient. We needed help with ou...r green card application and process. She gave excellent advice, explained the process fully, provided recommendations and was always available to answer our questions. She truly and sincerely cared about our situation and diligently assisted with every step of the way. We could have not done it without her! She knows the inside-out details for the green card process and provides answers right away. She is honest and is AVAILABLE, which is hard to find in the world of attorneys. We are so thankful that we have found her and would only return to her in the future. She goes above and beyond, to ensure that she provides the best service for her clients. She is THE BEST attorney, there is!

What a Relief! :)

Dealing with the government in any capacity is usually overwhelming -- and the immigration process is definitely no small task!! I can't imagine the kind of additional stress my wife and I would have had to deal with without having Edit guiding us through the process. Edit was personable, made thi...ngs super manageable, and really gave 100% of herself to the success of our immigration petition. If the need arises, we wouldn't hesitate to reach out to work with Edit in the future!

EB1 Green Card

Mrs. Edit Stelchner is an excellent lawyer that I have ever worked with in my process of getting a Visa . She made what for many lawyers believe impossible became possible. I just got approval for EB1 green card. My biggest dream came true thanks to Mrs.Stelchner, her dedication, professionalism and ...working extremely hard for the client. Most importantly, she listens and patient to explained and answer my questions. I highly recommend Mrs. Edit Stelchner to anyone who needs her service.

EB1 Visa

I strongly recommend Edit. I am a software developer in Sweden and always dreamed about moving to USA. I started looking for a good lawyer in NYC and found Edit. After reviewing my CV she recommended me to apply for EB1 visa. We started to build a case, building a case like this it’s not easy and it ...takes a lot of time and effort (we worked on my case for several months). Thanks to her effort and commitment I got my approval on I140 application. During the whole time Edit responded my emails and phone calls within the same day which made the whole process very easy for me. Edit is very professional and talented lawyer. I thank here for the effort and commitment she put on my case that made my dream come true.

Edit is patient, passionate, and caring

I was working abroad in Europe and ended up getting married there. When my company told me they were transferring me back home, my wife and I needed a plan. I searched Immigration Lawyers in NYC and found Edit. It must have been fate because she made the impossible possible through her expertise. We ...could not have asked for a better attorney. We recommend her to anyone. Our situation was complicated, me being an expat, and my wife being a permanent resident of Italy but having non-eu citizenship. Edit was able to connect with us through phone, email, whatsapp, and facebook, at all hours of the day and night. She took the time to give us our options, help us make the best decisions, and ultimately guide us through this difficult and laborious process. She is patient, passionate, and caring. Anytime we needed her, she was there, anytime we were anxious or nervous, she kept our spirits up through her positive attitude and confidence. My wife has her Permanent Residence Card (Green Card) and is living in the US, everything worked out perfectly thanks to Edit!

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.
