Janeen Hicks is good lawyer

We approached and hired Janeen for assistance to our immigration process, she is most helpful with any questions, extremely efficient and professional and we have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone seeking advise or assistance with immigration matters.

The Best lawyer ever seen!

I had a complicated case and I was not pleasant with my previous attorney. Very stressful times. Then a friend recommended Mrs. Pierre. During our consultation she focused on my problem, she explained everything and I decided to hire her. That was the best decision that I’ve ever made. She is very in...telligent, very responsible, always return my text messages, callings and emails. She absolutely knows what’s she is doing. She filed everything on time, always did let me know every kind of details. She did her best and I won my case. if you have a complicated case, looking for an attorney, I strongly recommend her, DO NOT THINK TWICE. She is the best! And again, thank you so much Janeen!

Amazing attorney!

Mrs.Pierre is an amazing attorney. We had a really complicated case with me and my children. Mrs.Pierre walked us through the case and offered us confidence, clarity and calmness. She was very organized and very professional. We are very thankful for her to this day. I would suggest her to anyone in ...need of an immigration lawyer!

Thank you Janeen! We are very happy working with you! Janeen is an amazing person. She is a professional lawyer. We have a really short time to prepare the documents but she makes everything easy. She knows what’s she doing. You are AWESOME! Thank you so much!

Excellent Attorney

I consulted with other lawyers before going to Janeen. The other lawyers were unable to get my husband's case approved. With Janeen my case moved super fast and was resolved within a year. She is very responsive with calls or messages. I would highly recommend Janeen!

Avvo Rating

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.
