Best in the US
We were pleasantly surprised to find a lawyer who cares. Sarah works very hard for her clients. She pays attention to detail. You get the sense that you are her only client. Detail and empathy are clearly the most important ingredients for success. And success is what she achieved for us in my wife's immigration case. We are forever indebted to Sarah.

She is an awesome immigration lawyer!
I retained her for a friend with asylum needs. She is extremely detailed in preparing the filing; helpful and thorough and down to earth as well. She does care. Not your run-of-the- mill "take your money and run" immigration lawyer. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

GOOD LAWYER
The first and foremost quality about Sarah that I truly appreciate is that she is very approachable. I don't have to think twice before sending her an email about any of my immigration questions and rest assured she will reply back. That I feel is so important when you are dealing with the complexities of immigration law.
