Excellent Lawyer

We hired Monica to help us navigate the green card process for my husband. Monica was very thorough in explaining to us the different options. In addition, she was always available when we had questions, from the simple to the complex. Monica also sent us very complete lists of every document we ...needed to compile, how much everything would cost, and what the process would be like step by step. She prepared all the final documents for us; we only had to sign them and send them to her. She also prepared us well for the interview. All in all, thankfully, the process didn't take too long, and we are definitely sure that we couldn't have navigated the process without her. We were so happy and pleased she agreed to work with her, and would definitely highly recommend her services to anyone.

Attorney Review

I highly recommend Monica Kinene's services as an attorney. Her work on my husband's immigration case was thorough and professional, and she provided results much faster than we expected. She communicated with us clearly throughout the process, and kept us updated on developments at all times. A trul...y caring professional, she went above and beyond in assisting my husband and myself. I would recommend Monica Kinene without reservation to anyone in need of legal services.

"Monica is a true gem of an attorney. She is kind, intelligent, and honestly pleasant to be around! From our first meeting, I have been impressed by her dedication to helping those often left behind by the immigration system - victims of crime, human trafficking, and other horrible situations. She has the compassion and heart to not just fix immigration problems, but to help in any way she possibly can."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"As a volunteer attorney with the Georgia Asylum & Immigration Network, Monica assisted two immigrant victims of crime in obtaining legal status to remain in the United States. During both of these experiences, I found Monica to be compassionate, poised, and always prepared to complete the task at hand. I highly recommend working with her."

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.
