Get green card

Attorney Barry L. Frager was hired to assist with my marriage-based green card application. During the initial consultation, I received a clear overview of the process, potential challenges, and associated timelines, which significantly reduced my worry. Communication throughout the process was exc...ellent—all questions were promptly answered . Thanks to their dedication and precision, I got my green card without any complications. Attorney Barry L. Frager at Frager Law Firm are highly recommended to anyone in need of skilled and compassionate immigration legal assistance.

Immigration

Mr. Frager: He is very professional. Has years of experience. Makes the process less stressful. Goes out of his way for his clients to make sure that the paperwork is correct and sent to the right place. Spends the time to explain and make sure that you understand the procedures. Everyone in... his office was very polite from the person on the phone to the person that you meet at the door. He is willing to travel for you. My wife and I chose him for his experience and his length of time in service on both sides.

Outstanding firm, lawyer and person! Hire them today!

100% recommend this firm to anyone looking for an immigration lawyer. Barry and his staff are extremely caring and professional, making sure you not only have an incredible customer experience but also achieve what you hired them for. Barry’s knowledge and professionalism are impressive as he will ma...ke sure you win your case. The firm made me feel very secure and confident during the entire green card process. Besides the amazing law knowledge, another HUGE benefit is the fact their firm is in the same building as USCIS (immigration services). Don’t think twice and hire them today. You will not regret. Thank you for all you did for me Barry and team! Best, Kevin T.

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.
