I’m so happy that I choose her!

She was always on tome and remind me of upcoming consultations or documents that need to be sent. My immigration case was 5 years long and she was with me at all the time! She knew what to present to judge and what to say to help my case. We went to court once and Thanks to her, we won my case! She i...s not pricey and she is honest! I will highly recommend her to anyone!

Absolutley the worst Immigration Attorney and Law Office in Northen Virginia

Based on my experience as a client. It was been a nightmare to deal with Germaine Sobral and her law offices. I don't understand how she's been able to practice half ass immigration law for as long as she has.. I was her client for 4 years and all she did was eventually set me up for failure. After s...eeing no results with her I went with another attorney and in 2 months I obtained my immigration status. Which goes to show how terrible this law office really is.. How can you have someone as a client for 4 years and set them up for failure. I hired a different attorney and that attorney was able to resolve and pointed out all of the errors that Germaine sobral and her law office made in regards to handling my case. I feel disgusted and angry that I wasted so much time with such a terrible attorney like Germaine Sobral and her law offices. I am just happy that the nightmare is over and that I have a competent attorney behind my corner. I absolutely do not recommend this attorney
