Excellent attorney

Barbara Brenner helped my husband with a complicated case. He has a green card thanks to her. She is very experienced and knowledgeable (can cite immigration law changes from the '90s off the top of her head). Most important, she is clearly known, trusted, and respected by employes of USCIS. An inter...viewer told us "You have a good lawyer." Good lawyers cost money. Her rates are standard in the field. Anyone who is expecting representation to be cheap is being unrealistic.

Stay away!!!

Absolutely the worse experience ever. She lied about the total fees and just kept sending more bills each time she sent me an email. Worse part is, she never even filed our case after 7 months of her back and forth and excuses. Anywhere from being short staffed to she was away from the office. The li...st went on. In the end I’m out my money and now have to start all over to find another attorney who actually knows what they are doing. I will file a complaint to every know agency in NYS! Hopefully she can not do this to anyone else!

PLEASE DO NOT HIRE BARBARA

Barbara Brenner is the worst immigration lawyer. She is only concerned about money. If you want to do anything with immigration, consult other lawyers. Don't choose her. If you choose her you will loose a lot of money and get stressed out. She will take more money, if you are from other country and... new to this place. She will ask a lot of money at the last moment of immigration interview, its just like a trap! please don't go for it. Don't get SCAMMED by Barbara. PLEASE DON'T END UP IN HUGE DEBT.

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.
