Vanessa and Allison

I had a complicated case about I-601 and I-212 waivers, I have tried to file it by myself which didn’t give a successful result and I decided to hire an lawyer so I didn’t know who to pick after consulting couples of them, as I was googling my search I’ve found Caruso law firm and I read what they po...sted, just the resume of their post gave me the answer to my problem and I decided to hire them as I only had 2 Months deadline so Vanessa and Allison worked with me and my wife over the phones and through e-mails as I’m living in Canada and them in USA, the waivers were submitted before the deadline and a Month later my 2 waivers were approved. Thank you Vanessa and Allison also to your team if you have one. If there is someone there needs an immigration lawyer please don’t waste time, I highly recommend you to contact Caruso law firm is the best one, they took my case in heart, they were available anytime I needed them on a phone, on e-mails, by txt messages, that was fantastic and amazing, the fee was also reasonable so there is nothing to complain about. Thank you Caruso law firm

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.
