Thank you

Hello! Firstly just to the doubting Thomas's like hi, who had always thought people where being paid for the reviews when I saw there was testimony. I took this upon myself to do this and I wasn't given a peni for this review. I was just like one of you. Today I have came to say thanks to Wafula beca...use she's God sent from heaven, it's been 9 years guys. I can't even explain it all. I finally got my work and travel permit, I could not thank you guys enough and the employees, you guys rock! How you encourage, listen, and help in different ways and so polite, though I'm waiting on my Green Card which I hope and have faith that it's on the way to me soon as well. Thanks once again guys, please whoever is out there still thinking and doubting get out there and be the next to testify like me. Thanks!

The best Immigration Lawyer I know

The Wafula legal team has been great since they started handling my case. They notify and update you promptly. They ensure you follow the right steps to help your case.I would recommend this law firm to anyone in need of quality legal services. 5stars! Update: January 2025 I got a notice for a se...cond interview in July 2024. I was worried and was wondering why another interview was requested. Attorney Wafula prepared me for my interview and encouraged me to remain calm and trust in God. She was there every step of the way. During the interview I was giving a RFE which we submitted the same month. I am happy to say my 10yrs Green Card finally came this month. You can't go wrong with E.M wafula. I was in Memphis at her office and I saw how things are handled. Her team is always on point, they follow up, and they are very professional. I am so thankful and happy at the moment. I highly recommend Attorney E.M Wafula.

The Best Immigration Attorney

When I talked to Attorney Wafula in 2021 she gave me a reassurance of the future looking brighter when I had lost hope. I got my work permit a month right after she took up my case.It's been a journey. Now I have received my Permanent Residence card. God has been in control and Patience pays.Thank yo...u so much Attorney Liz Wafula, May God bless you and continue using you to change people's lives. If you have any Immigration case, she is your 'to go to' person.Very professional, and articulate in her work together with her team.Blessings.

Worst Service ever

She took the money and was never on time. Missed deadlines and no response ever. The front desk people give immigration advice even when they are not authorized to. Wasted one year by just delaying saying attorney is out. Poor communication Even after multiple efforts to reach attorney via email..., calls or portal no timely response ever or even a response, just automated msgs All talk during consultation but no actual work Very unprofessional Can’t even provide options based on immigration status when other lawyers show you options This law firm is a total waste of time. If you are an immigrant plz don’t waste your time or money.
