Emily Mira Cohen

I cannot recommend Emily highly enough. I worked with her on my U.S. student visa after a very discouraging first experience that ended in a rejection. The stakes could not have been higher: without a successful second attempt, I would not have been able to begin my program. From the very beginning, ...Emily combined professionalism with empathy and clarity, and she immediately gave me the sense that I was in capable hands. What impressed me most was her ability to translate a very complicated and stressful situation into a clear, step-by-step plan. She walked me through exactly what needed to be done, and—crucially—she helped me craft and edit the supporting documents that ultimately made all the difference. Her edits and suggestions were thoughtful, precise, and always grounded in her deep knowledge of immigration law and consular practice. I could see the benefit of her many years of experience in every comment she made. Equally important was her availability and responsiveness. She made time for me even at short notice, answered quick questions with patience and clarity, and often stayed beyond the scheduled time of our calls just to make sure every concern was addressed. That level of dedication was invaluable in keeping me calm and confident as I prepared for my second visa attempt. The result speaks for itself: my visa was approved on the second try. Without her guidance, I am certain I would not have succeeded. She gave me not just legal advice, but also the confidence to walk into the consulate knowing I was fully prepared. I am extremely grateful that I found Emily and had the opportunity to work with her. She is not only a highly skilled immigration attorney but also a true partner in what can be one of the most stressful processes someone can go through. If you are looking for an attorney who combines deep expertise with exceptional client care, I cannot imagine a better choice.

Ms. Cohen went above and beyond my expectations during our consultation. She was very knowledgeable and provided detailed answers to all of my questions in a thoughtful and kind manner. I had a lot of different concerns to ask about and she listened to each one patiently. I left the consultation feel...ing both confident and reassured. It was a welcome change from previous experiences I have had with attorney consultations. I would highly recommend a consultation with Ms. Cohen. Thank you!

Just had the pleasure of speaking with Ms. Cohen. I had some questions regarding an upcoming submission of immigration paperwork. Ms. Cohen attentively listened to my questions, gave me extremely practical answers, advised me on what to expect through the process, and how to handle each possible scen...ario. A delightful, informative exchange. Thank you.

I'm a recent grad student. I had questions regarding my job offer and the Post Completion OPT. Not only did Emily give her valuable time to listen carefully to my problems, but she also corrected my understanding of the situation, calming me down and telling me why I should not be worried. She gave t...hree possible options that I can go ahead with: A best-case scenario, a second-best case scenario if the first one doesn't work, and a worst-case scenario to prepare for as a contingency plan. I was surprised by the length and breadth of the knowledge + experience that came across while I was listening to her advice. Emily is inarguably the best immigration person I've ever worked with. I would hands-down recommend her for any kind of immigration situation you encounter. She's my permanent immigration lawyer now. There are very few professionals in this field that, in addition to excellent knowledge, also come with a great attitude and a lot of positive energy.
