Compassionate and detail oriented

I had the option of many top lawyers to work with for filing my naturalization application and preparing for my interview but choose Kathy as she goes the extra mile for her clients and her rates are quite reasonable. She gave me ample time and was very thorough with my application. She’s responsive ...and keeps you informed of your status and important dates. I appreciated her encouragement and legal support during a difficult time. I highly recommend her services based on my experience.

Strongly recommended

kathy Polias is an amazing attorney who prepares her cases in a comperhensive manner. She is very detail oriented, knowledgable, and informative. I worked with her for two cases related to immigration and civil rights, and I am very pleased with her work. My case with her for Asyulm application met ...few obstacles and was about to be thrown out of the immigration office, however Attorney Polias, with her neat work and ability to represent and emphasis the facts about my case, was eventually able to make me win this case and granted an asylum .. I Strongly recommend her

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.
