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.

I strongly recommend her as an immigration attorney

I had the pleasure of hiring the services of Ms. Van Wormer last year when I needed urgent help in an immigration matter. after seeking the consultation of 3 other counselors I have to say that Ms. Van Wormer was not only the most helpful, but she was also there when needed the most. Counselor Van Wo...rmer has proven to be a professional attorney who has the ability to respond to legal queries and questions in timely manner. I am very thankful to Ms. Van Wormer and the help her office has provided me throughout the last year, and I strongly recommend her as an immigration attorney.

I am very lucky I got to work with her on my case

I am writing to thank you for the excellent service that I received from your firm. When we met with Attorney Van Wormer took our case with respect and the entire process went smooth. Ms. Van Wormer; outline, highlight and analyzed our case in details and then gives us the options available. What I a...dmire most about her; she listens to her clients and then response according with no judgement. Also she can be reach directly by email and phone without any hassle. Highly recommended Rachel! I am very lucky I got to work with her on my case.

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!!!!

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.
