Turned a nightmare into a success!

On Thursday 4.6. we received a letter that an application for my Green Card has been rejected due to a failure to provide some simple additional documents to USCIS, but we never received the request. It was a nightmare! I knew it's a big deal to be denied so a day after we started looking for a lawye...r. I was actually just looking for a consultation, but when we met Marylin we changed our mind (for a good reason because what she did we couldn't do ourselves). I Googled for an attorney that deals with the same sex couples and one of them was Marylin. She was not the first one we called, but she was the only one that was willing to meet us the same day. We met in her office at 8pm. She started working on our case on spot (for the next three hours!!!) even before we singed a contract and paid for her services (the legal fees were very reasonable). Regarding our case, she said that it is obviously not our mistake and she added: "before we file a motion, let me go there in person and try to convince them to reopen the case without filling a motion and paying a fee". Next week, on Tuesday afternoon I brought the documents USCIS required to her office and on Wednesday the next day at noon I received a phone call from an immigration officer to come the same day if possible for an interview (although it was originally waived) and he would approve the Green Card on spot!!! When we went for an interview she was there with us. The officer did not ask anything about our relationship, only some (basic) security questions (are you a terrorist and similar). Without her we would have to reapply or file a motion. Either would cost us a lot of time, money and stress. I am very happy we met her, although it was a random luck! Thank you Marylin!

Other lawyers said they could not help, she immediately solved my problem

After school officials at my university decided that I had violated my immigration status, they were about to terminate my SEVIS record which would have resulted in my losing my lawful immigration status. I called several immigration attorneys; most of them told me that since these decisions are at t...he university's discretion, there is not much one can do and they cannot help me. Ms. Orbach-Rosenberg, however, told me that we should not let this happen, and that she saw a way to turn this around. The depth of her knowledge and experience was immediately clear from the questions she asked about my situation. She listened carefully, and gave me advice as to how I could convince my university to change their decision. I followed her advice and it worked perfectly! Thanks to her, I still have my lawful immigration status. To all of my friends who have immigration questions, I recommend that they contact Ms. Orbach-Rosenberg.

Excellent Immigration Lawyer!

My overall experience with Marilyn was exceptional. From the initial phone conversation where she compassionately spoke with me regarding my situation, to the final result, which was me getting my permanent green card. Marilyn is experienced in dealing with unusual, unique or difficult immigration st...atus's/situations and handles each case with thorough care and consideration. I admit that I, like most people in strenuous immigration proceedings was nervous and upset during the process; these things are not easy, but Marilyn was able to help me work through it all with ease. Do understand also, that she is busy with a lot of cases, so trust that yours is being taken care of, and that she is aware of dates and impending deadlines - be patient and she will get back to you as soon as possible. I highly recommend Marilyn as an immigration lawyer and will be recommending and seeking out her services in the future.

Ms. Orbarch-Rosenberg is an amazing attorney. My cancellation of removal case was incredibly difficult, but with her intelligence and effectiveness she successfully resolved my case. Thanks to her I am able to remain with my family in the United States. I couldn't thank her enough!
