Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value

OMG, I don't know where to start from, simply there are no words to describe how grateful I am to have found Ms. Gina Takemori. She is very knowledgeable, thorough, a great communicator, and truly represents the best interest of her clients. if Gina takes your case, you can be confident she will do e...verything and win it. Besides being an outstanding professional she also has a very nice personality and treats her clients as family members. My journey to becoming a permanent resident, and eventually a USA citizen was very stressful and complicated, all my hopes were lost but she restored the confidence in me, not just once but many many times. She laid everything out for me clearly and helped me with every step of the way. We started from nothing and Gina and her fantastic team Maria, and others worked very hard with me, she was available any time I needed her, and always made sure I was on top of what we needed to do. If you are looking for a great immigration lawyer, Please, look no further! She is truly amazing and I highly recommend her law firm.

In one sentence, Gina is amazing.

Here's my story. I'm a Spaniard and live in New York City with my boyfriend. I work as a professional for the same firm for 8 years. My H1B Visa was to expire this year, but I very much wanted to stay, to work, to live, and to be with those I've who had become part of my life. And so did the compa...ny I work for, so they sponsored me for a green card. Earlier last year (2014), I retained counsel from another lawyer who had originally started my employer’s GC application. They shuffled their feet for months. The last straw was when they told me that they had priority clients (i.e., not me) to attend to. It was looking impossible for my firm to get the green card done with them and my visa was about to expire. The situation was extremely stressful. At this time, through a referral, I found Gina and I asked her if she could help us. She jumped into high gear immediately, seeing the urgency of the situation. From the moment Gina entered my life, the situation make a positive turn and I felt I was finally in good hands. For around a 2 week period, we exchanged (no exaggeration) at least 20 emails a day. She was on the case, and had thought of every contingency and within these two weeks my employer and I got all the applications done!!! She even got my H1B Visa extended as to minimize any possible issue. I can say with certainty that without Gina's professionalism, expert and fast work, I would not have had my green card application and my visa extension submitted on time. If you're looking for an immigration lawyer, I can recommend, without any reservation, Gina. Thank you for reading.

Gemma, Thank you so much for the glowing review. I have had such pleasure in representing you. You have been a dream to work with. I am heading to Spain on Sunday and have been thinking about you! The next time I am in the City - I promise we will meet and have that celebratory drink. Happy Holidays to you and yours and look forward to finalizing the year with good news about the GC. All my best, Gina xxx

She will make your dream comes true!

I would like to thank Attorney GinaTakemori for the excellent legal service that she provided. I hired Attorney Gina Takemori to help me and my husband acquire permanent residency in the United States. Ms. Takemori is extremely knowledgeable and she was always ready to answer any question I had durin...g the process; especially the most complex ones related to re-entry in the U.S when applying for a change of status with a H1B visa and, the ones related to the content of the letters of recommendation for an EB1 green card application. She carefully took the time to review all the letters of recommendations and gave us very good advice to help us improve our application to have a better chance of success. Thanks to Attorney Takemori and her team, my husband and I are now able to settle more permanently in the Unites States as new lawful permanent residents. I recommend Ms.Takemori services to everyone who is currently applying for a green card. She will make your dream comes true!

Best Immigration attorney

It was such an honor to have found such an amazing, caring, knowledgeable, trustworthiness and hard working attorney. I came to Mrs. Takemori for immigration purposes. My husband is Military and he got orders to Japan, I needed my green card to travel with him. The moment I explained my situati...on to her she immediately provided me and my husband the right information. Every question I had or concern I easily made a phone call or email, with in minutes I got answers! Thank you to attorney Takemori I got my green card with in 4 months! It's been a year since and I always go back when ever I need something! She's always there, it was my first attorney I ever hire. I highly recommend Mrs. Takemori, best Imigration attorney.
