Naturalization (Dual Citizenship German/US)

For years, I considered the process of becoming a US citizen but the administrative and political aspect of it seemed to be too difficult and time-consuming to handle alone. Last year, I contacted the German consulate to ask for advice in choosing the right lawyer and was prompted to review their lis...t on their website. That's how I came across Annabelle Fischer and from the first phone call, which she returned promptly, I knew she was the right choice. Annabelle is very well informed and returned my emails and phone calls always very quickly. She was great to work with, friendly, a good listener, and walked me through all aspects of becoming a US citizen. I felt I was very well prepared throughout the process which she made very easy. Prior to the interview and to being sworn in on September 20, 2019 which was a beautiful ceremony, I had additional questions and Annabelle reassured me. I highly recommend Annabelle Fischer and have already shared her name with others who are seeking to become US citizens. Thank you again, Annabelle!

German Visa Issue Resolved

Annabelle provided services for my wife in pursuing to resolve a long standing Visa issue. Prior to enlisting Annabelle's assistance my wife and I had sought to resolve the issues through a German attorney's office which proved to be less than fruitful. The origin of the issue dated back to 2017 an...d it was not until we found Annabelle that any progress was made towards resolving the outstanding issue. Annabelle's reviewed our case thoroughly and outlined the necessary actions through out each step in the process. She clearly identified what challenges existed and guided us in submitting supporting documents to strengthen our case. Annabelle's complete knowledge of the German law / justice system along with a strong network of connections in both the U.S. and Germany proved to be invaluable. You can have the best intentions in the world to provide all the necessary information to strengthen and win your case but if you are not intimately knowledgeable with the German immigration system you will be walking in the dark as we were. Without having Annabelle's assistance my wife would still have this lingering issue which would have impacted our life goals and future. A big thank you to Annabelle for all her persistent efforts and assistance with resolving our case! We highly recommend Annabelle to anyone that is serious about resolving legal or immigration matters within the German system!

Excellent Service

Ms Fischer assisted me with obtaining both my German Beibehaltungsgenehmigung and my US citizenship and I couldn't have been happier with either process! She was professional, knowledgeable, as well as personable and easy to work with and took a lot of time during the initial consulting phase to exp...lain all the necessary steps and learning about my situation. Throughout the extensive process of both steps, instructions were detailed yet manageable, she kept me informed, everything was handled swiftly; billing was easy and transparent as well. Every phone call and email was in both German and English, which was an added value for me. Ms Fischer offered another consultation before the naturalization interview which helped me feel solidly prepared and at ease. I highly recommend Ms Fischer to anyone with immigration needs, her assistance and support allowed me to finalize my American dream!

Beyond Thankful

Hoping to find a lawyer who could assist me in gaining my German Citizenship I found that the German Embassy keeps a list, which is where I was fortunate enough to find Annabelle Fischer. Out of all of the other lawyer's I contacted she was the only one who responded readily, giving me all the info...rmation I would need to begin preliminaries in an upfront professional manner, which is why I chose her above the others. Following that, Annabelle continued to do an outstanding service. As I knew little to nothing about what it would be like to attain my German citizenship, Annabelle was happy to explain exactly what we would need to do and helped guide me through everything. As well as introduce me to valuable resources about my family's lineage that I would not have been able to find on my own. I feel beyond grateful for her services and would highly recommend her to anyone.
