Highly recommended!

Mary Lynn helped me with the response of a Request for Evidence on a TPS case, I had temporarily resided on different countries in the past and this can represent a problem if you don't present your case properly. After wasting time with another firm and feeling fear caused by them, because the first... thing they inform you is their fee and that they cannot guarantee a positive outcome. I reached out to her to make a consultation and after talking and answering some questions, she assessed my situation and suggested a course of action. She's experienced, caring, knowledgeable and resourceful. We started working together and she took the time to review the immigration laws of these other countries and my statuses while living there to better make sense of my situation and present a clean case. She walked with me throughout the whole process and I'm very happy to say we had a positive outcome. I'm highly satisfied with her services. Thanks again!

Mary Lynn helped me a lot while working in my immigration case. She was always available to answer any questions that I had and made sure to always bring me the best assistance. She got my complicated case approved and I am very thankful that I am now a permanent resident and living in the US with my... family

If you are looking for an immigration lawyer, please look no further. Mary Lynn Tedesco is so amazing I can’t even begin to explain how thankful i am with her. I started my green card process with her when she was working at another firm and even after leaving she helped me tremendously. She answered... all my questions for my interview and walked me through everything i had to do. I felt more comfortable talking to her than to my current “lawyer”. She is so nice and walks you through the whole process. I recommend her so much, you will not regret it. Thanks to all her hard work I finally have my green card!!
