Best Lawyer

Lawyer Genet, to me is the best lawyer one should always work with. me and my wife filed our adjustment status in the year 2000 and attend the interview the same year and our case was denied. And immigration proceeded to deportation process and lawyer Genet came in and save the situation. she is prof...essional in handling her clients and respond to clients request on time. if not because of Genet, my husband would have been deported. I will recommend lawyer Genet 1 million times. she is the best.

The best lawyer ever

I was so lucky to have genet as my lawyer, she helped me out when I had lost all hope ,I filed my case in 2012 and same year got the decision as well as my green card the following year ,she always responded to my calls and was so hardworking and took time out to prepare me and my husband for the cas...e,she was so responsible even though she had a lot of work pressure on her and today i am here happy just because of her.Thanks to Genet and Nikki ...

I DO NOT RECOMMEND

She is extremely unreliable. She is never available and does not return phone calls. She is very irresponsible. she also lost documents that I gave her for my spouses case. I DO NOT RECOMMEND HER AS A LAWYER!! might as well represent myself before giving her any more money!

Genet do not care about u..she only want ur money

I hired Genet in 2008 finally rec my permanent resident card in 2011(at last). Genet procrastinated the process, she had no urgency what so ever due to the fact the longer she delayed my process the more money I paid her. Genet was unreachable & did not return calls I had to consistently call to fol...low up on my case, oh what sleepless nights I had when she represented me. I recently contacted her a few weeks ago 2014, it's usually obvious after rec a GCard next will be to file for citizenship Genet deleted my file according to her secretary Genet has my file in storage I gave her a surprise visit in her office the story changed to it was destroyed by hurricane Sandy, I understand natural disasters but it did not hit Court Street so where is the back up on the computer? The secretary said it should be on this flash drive which she plugged in but my file was not on the FD..Genet Getachew at 26 Court Street Brooklyn NY is Not A Reliable Lawyer I do not recommend after she gets your money she will not consider you a person that paid her over $8000.00 In fees she would treat you like just another number and refer you to immigration to figure it out yourself. There is no way you can build client to lawyer trustworthiness with Genet she is not a lawyer u can say has ur back and will assist u I would not recommend not even an animal to her.
