Best Immigration Lawyer Ever!!

My US Citizen wife and I hired Vanessa Caruso for my adjustment of status case. We had a free over the phone consultation. She's well grounded and up-to-date on immigration issues. My adjustment of status I-485 case was approved without an interview exactly two months after we submitted our applicati...ons.

She is simply a wonderful lady

Just had a free consultation regarding my Citizenship, Vanessa & Allison are wonderful persons to work with and super specialized act like a doctor when you’re talking with them and make you feel relaxed and provide the best solutions. None of other Attorneys have this great quality.

Excellent,friendly and one of the best lawyer

Thank you lawyer Vanessa & Allison you are the best. In 2017 my wife had interviewed in U.S embassy the officer accused her being married with some unknown person and the officer told her they have all the information and you are lying, me and my wife got shocked . I called so many lawyers no help ...even some lawyers told me the embassy have right information and you have no chance of winning this case got more shocked then finally thank God I found carusolawgroup and talked to them and told them stories and also it was free consultation. The lawyer Vanessa and Allison they were so helpful they took my case very seriously and they treated me so good with in 3 months they filed my I-601 waiver and I got approved with in 11 months so excited so happy. During the processing if I have any questions or concerns I always call and email they always answers right away.. any body looking to hire lawyer please contact them. I highly recommend carusolawgroup.com

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.
