My lawyer rocks

Jennifer was the best thing that ever happen for me since the day I reach to Florida. She is very detail and made sure I understood everything, my paper work had no issues and she went with me for my interview that made me feel so special.

Nuestro Testimonio De Victoria !

Saludos Primero le damos Gracias a Dios. El poder encontrar a la licenciada Jennifer. Ya que hubiese pagado en 2 ocasiones a abogados " llena Papeles". Lo primero que naro, es que todo los abogados daban el caso por perdido, no nos daban esperanza y nos llenaban documentos incorrectos. Nos hacían cre...er que todo estaba bien. La licenciada Jennifer tomo nuestro caso siendo un caso internacional ya que nosotros estabas radicados en la isla de Puerto Rico y ella en la Florida. Nuestro primer logro fue el perdón ( waiver 1-601A ) luego de ello siempre estuvo a la disposición de corresponder las llamadas, positiva y dispuesta. cada error en nuestro caso , que los "llena papeles llamados Abogados" fueron rectificados por la abogada . Ejemplo: Formulario 260 ( rectificado) Logro la cita consular en tiempo de pandemia Una semana antes de la cita nos preparo para el caso frente al cónsul. Muy dedicada, profesional. Nuestro caso era muy difícil ya que nos pidieron waiver y no estábamos seguros que nos iban a dar la visa. La licenciada estuvo hasta el ultimo momento con nosotros, La recomendamos para todo tipo de servicio migratorio en especial los waivers, no importa la distancia. Sus servicios los recomendamos al 100 % Estoy muy orgullosa de mi compatriota Dominicana!
