An amazing Lawyer who genuinely cares about her clients.

Anna, as well as her amazing team, provided such excellent advice and help during the entire process of my Green Card application. She is passionate, dedicated, friendly and most importantly amazing at her profession. My wife and I truly thank her and the team at Maggio & Kattar for their dedication ...and we will be defaulting, in the future, to Anna for any further immigration assistance.

Made a mountainous immigration process seem like a molehill

Applying for a self-sponsored Green Card is a daunting mountainous process. Ms Gallagher and her law firm Maggio & Kattar afforded an impressively smooth Green Card experience. I am very grateful to Ms Gallagher and her team (Elsy Ramos and Elisabeth Carlson) for their work on my behalf- they wer...e always responsive to my concerns and did their utmost to facilitate the process. I highly recommend the law firm to professionals such as myself considering applying for a self-sponsored Green card.

Fantastic representation

Anna assisted us with filing for permanent residency. She was not only extremely professional and knowledgeable, but also put us at ease with the process. She was accessible and made us feel comfortable in asking questions to clarify the process. She was open to answering any and all questions we h...ad. She briefed us on what to expect during the interview process and attended the interview with us. We highly recommend Anna for her professionalism, accessibility and true passion for what she does. Thank you!

Great immigration attorney!

I consulted with several attorneys regarding my case - a very difficult immigration situation. Anna was the only one who offered a creative solution, and she was the only one who really cared about me as a person and how my immigration status affected my entire family. She actively reached out to f...ind a way to turn my situation around. Today, I am a proud US citizen! Thank you, Anna - couldn't have done it without you and your wonderful team!

Recupere mi Ciudadania Americana. Got my American Citizenship back.

Me faltan las palabras para expresar mi inmensa gratitud hacia Anna Gallagher y todo el equipo de Maggio+Kattar. Mi caso no solo era único, sino también difícil, ya que había perdido la ciudadanía americana en 1984; pero gracias a la atenta y estrecha comunicación que Anna tuvo conmigo a través del p...roceso logró armar un caso fuerte y no dejó de luchar hasta recuperar mi ciudadanía. Antes de tener el placer de conocer a Anna ya había consultado yo a 4 diferentes abogados, ninguno de ellos supo tan siquiera como proceder con el caso y me advertían que no había modo de ganarlo. Agradezco con todo mi corazón a Anna y a todo el equipo de Maggio+Kattar por su paciencia, dedicación, e impecable esfuerzo que le dedicaron a mi caso. Quedaré agradecida por siempre, Regina I have no words to express the immense gratitude I have for Anna Gallagher and the whole team at Maggio+Kattar. My case was unique and challenging; I lost my citizenship back in 1984, but thanks to the close communication Anna had with me at all times she was able to put together a strong case for me. Before coming into contact with Anna I had already seen 4 different lawyers, none of which would take my case. Not only did Anna take my case, but she fought restlessly until I got my citizenship back. I want to wholeheartedly thank Anna and the whole Maggio+Kattar team for the hard work, patience, and dedication you put in my case, I shall always be thankful. Regina

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Anna Gallagher is highly respected throughout the nation for her knowledge of Immigration law and for her tenacity. Interestingly enough, I lectured with Anna about 6 years ago at a national conference. The title of that seminar shows her tenacity with her clients. It was entitled: “Out in the Cold: People with No Options Under Our Current Immigration System,” and it drew hundreds of attorneys who wanted to learn from her. Anna is ethical, smart and very practical."
