Highly Recommended

I strongly recommend my attorney, Katie. She is a highly compassionate and capable attorney. She was able to provide me with detailed advice on the potential risks and all options I had regarding my immigration status. I am extremely grateful for her honest evaluation of my case. She was thorough ...and detailed and provided me with invaluable recommendations. She always listened carefully to my concerns; trying to get the full picture and not to miss any details in order to provide constructive solutions. All these factors characterize her as highly professional who works for the best interest of her clients. Every time we spoke or met I felt at ease that my situation was genuinely important to her.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. Ms. Albarelli excels in Client communication. Communication is an essential element in legal representation. She able to explain right and responsibilities to Client's in a understandable format. Second, Ms. Albarelli has demonstrated a commitment to the Client's case. Immigration process is not at times very speedy. She shares the commitment by navigating the labyrinth of the process to achieve the Client's desired result. Finally, Ms. Albarelli's compassion for the Client is very high. You are not just a case or a number, the Client's cause is her own. To that end, she is involved in related community activities outside the legal world. In sum, Ms. Albarelli's diligence and intelligence in the immigration field give the Client the highest level of professionalism."

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.
