Thank you very much for your help

After we got married myself and my wife were quite confused about what we need to do that will enable me to work and travel in America. We went to Rachel and she helped us get all of our arrangements in place to move forward correctly. If you make one misstep, you can find yourself in trouble or prol...ong the process. It's not something we could have done by ourselves. Rachel went out of her way to help us. We really do feel that we got a lot more than we paid for. Whenever we met with Rachel it was never rushed and I got the feeling that she would spend the whole day to help us understand the whole process(this was never needed as she is very efficient and we understood our situation very quickly). Going through this process can be very stressful and overwhelming. It's comforting to know that we could call or email Rachel and she would be there to lend a further hand. Thank you very much for your help, your office and staff are very professional and as we progress further with our case I will never hesitate to contact you again for future legal advice and assistance.

She educated me on everything

Rachel Van Wormer was a life saver. I went to her feeling completely helpless and clueless about my immigration situation and DACA application. She educated me on everything and kept in touch with me every step of the way. I emailed her and called her throughout the process and she always got back to... me in a timely manner. I would recommend Ms. Van Wormer to anyone. She's not only intelligent but nice and caring, plus relatively affordable. Thank you again!!!!

May the most High bless you and your family

Rachel Van Wormer is the best professional and trustworthy lawyer I met. When I walked into the office, I really felt comfortable with her ward contact and very friendly smile. Instead talking traditional, I found myself talking to a friend/sister. She walk me through the process step by step, filed ...and followed up my case. The fee was extremely reasonable. I definitely recommend Rachel to anyone and everyone with immigration problems. Thank you Rachel and may the most High bless you and your family.

Rachel is top notch. She knows what she is doing and she is able to communicate quite well. I would highly recommend her. Her consultation fee is quite reasonable.

The right answer and choice be Van Wormer.

My name is Sisay I am a resident in Virginia. It was almost more than a year since I knew Van Wormer. She is the best and professional person I have ever meet. She knows what is expected of her and give respect to her clients. She never miss appointment and gives flexible scheduling to meet her and d...iscuss important issues. The exceptional qualities of Van Wormer are: Time management , reasonable pricing, and respect. This days it becomes common to see lawyers asking high price (either consultation or handling fees), but Worrmer never do that because her priority is to see your case solved with out problem, Therefore when it comes to choose who your immigration attorney is, the right answer and choice be Van Wormer.
