The most experienced, caring, knowledgeable, attentive attorney!

I am beyond grateful to my amazing attorney, Pamela Peynado, who has been by my side for over 9 years. When most attorneys didn’t want to take on my difficult immigration case, Pamela stepped in with confidence and dedication. She noticed every small detail that could become a challenge and found a s...olution for every aspect of my case. Thanks to her relentless support and expertise, I was able to obtain my green card—and today, I proudly call myself an American citizen. Pamela has been more than just a legal representative—she has been my guide, advocate, and inspiration throughout this journey. Her attention to detail, people skills, charm, and sharp legal mind make her not only the best lawyer, but also an extraordinary woman. Strong, smart, and powerful, she is someone I deeply admire and look up to. Pamela, thank you for everything you’ve done. You truly changed my life, and I will always be grateful for you.

The best Immigration Lawyer in Georgia

Where do I begin, first off I want to express my gratitude to all the amazing staff within this immigration law firm. Literally from the receptionist to all the paralegals and most importantly all the lawyers here at Lee and Peynado Immigration Law Group. I recommend this law firm 100%. Lee and Pey...nado Immigration Law Group take pride in their cases and make sure every case that comes across these lawyers is BEAT! When I say they take “NO” for an answer is I MEAN IT’S A NO! I want to personally take the time to express my gratitude towards Mrs. Pamela Peynado- Stewart. I am so thankful I reached out to her to take over my husbands case in May 2019. My husbands case was a very difficult case and I can really say it was not a beatable case. She provided many many hours in my husbands case, worked hard, worked late hours along side Mrs. Megan Gil (attorney), and Stephanie (paralegal). I can say everyone in this law firm is compassionate, caring, dedicated, and hard working individuals towards their clients and cases. I have no doubt that anyone who hires any of the attorney’s here at Lee & Peynado Immigration Law Group will regret it. The help they provide each and everyone one of the families is unbelievable. The dedication and admiration towards all the cases is beyond expectations. Every single one of the employees from the receptionist, assistants, paralegals, to the lawyers have amazing communication skills and great structure here at this law firm. Everyone’s always on the same page. There aren’t any run arounds or beating around the bush. Everyone’s straight to the point which is what I loved. I want to wrap my review by saying thank you so much Mrs. Pamela Peynado-Stewart for reuniting my husband with our family! After 8 long months of fighting his unbeatable case you did it! You beat his case and my husband came out a green card holder! My husband and I won’t ever be able to repay you. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR CALL NOW AND SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT FOR YOUR CONSULTATION!!!

Simply the best

The level of professionalism exceeded my expectations. Pamela was able to successfully help me when my case but above that treated me like a person. Her level of professionalism was only exceeded by her compassion. She treated me like family.

Amazing and efficient lawyer!!!!

Pamela is an amazing lawyer. She pays close attention to details and will make sure your applications go smoothly the first time around. She follows up and double check status of applications. If she has to go onsite for follow ups she doesn’t hesitate to do so. She is amazing to work with because sh...e is so passionate about what she does. Her staff is very friendly and profesional. I’ve never had any issues with setting up appointment or follow ups. I recommend Pamela as you your immigration lawyer. She is the best. You will not be disappointed!!!
