Excellent Experience with Melissa Desvarieux

Ms. Desvarieux was a pleasure to work during my entire experience with my greencard application. In the two years she consulted me whenever I needed to ask questions she always responded promptly and felt more of an extended family member. She is very knowledgeable, experienced, and delightful to wor...k with. She always returned my emails and phone calls no matter the time. I would recommend her to anyone for any legal advice.

Simply one of the BEST!

I had the pleasure of meeting Melissa and hiring her Legal services in the recent past for an immigration case - let me tell you - she totally saved the day! My husband had an immigration case that had already been denied even though we hired a lawyer who had over 25 years of experience in the field...…. Imagine the hopelessness we felt! That was until we met Melissa! Right from the Get, I knew she would make a difference and THAT she did! Melissa personally got involved in the case, not just from a Legal standpoint, but from a point where she was involved as a person who TRULY cared about the outcome! Within a short time, Melissa had the denial overturned and my husband was able to obtain legal residency in a case where we were being told there was no hope! We are indebted to Melissa for this! I have referred others to her and they have all had positive outcomes! In my opinion, one of the most HUMAN Attorneys' I have ever met - if you need an Immigration Attorney, Melissa will get it done!

Excellent!

Ms. Desvarieux is an exceptional lawyer. She's helped me in different immigration cases in the past years and she took care of them in a professional and stress-free manner. She is straight forward on what is needed for the case and on what to expect throughout the process. What I appreciate the mo...st is her communication with me along the way on each case and her availability when had questions or concerns. Unlike many lawyers out there, Ms. Desvarieux was always reachable. Of course the cases were successfully solved. I recommend her office without hesitations!
