Great lawyer!

Mr. Messersmith was knowledgeable. He listed out all our options pertaining to my immigration process. He was patient and helpful. Even his paralegal Jen was so attentive and helpful right from the first phone call I made inquiring about them. Price is realistic and absolutely affordable. I am so gla...d I chose to go to Peter Messersmith.

Green Card!! Best Lawyer!!!

I would like thank to Peter Messersmith and Jen and his staff. Due to my previous lawyers mistake, I almost has fraud issue with my green card application. Peter helped my green card case with a short period, and also spent his own time to review my case. He is patient and professional with full know...ledge with the immigration law!!! I expected this to take longer, but I received my green card less then a week because of Peter helping us. I am proudly said that he is the best immigration lawyer in the USA. My husband and I are highly recommended your Law Firm if there is someone needs help in immigration case. Peter thank you so much!!!!

Highly Recommendation for Mr. Messersmith

Peter is an excellent immigration lawyer, the top of the best. Immigration is a stressful journey and all of us wish an happy ending in our cases. Peter is an expert in the immigration and he did his best in my case to get it approved. Jennifer also provides the best assistance to me in my case. Sh...e is very knowledgeable about the immigration and very friendly. Peter made my impossible case to be possible and I received my green card this week. He really made it happen. I highly recommend Peter to be your immigration lawyer. You need a lawyer to work with you and fight for you in the immigration issue. The Messersmith Law Firm will be your best choice.

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.
