The Go To Attorney!

Everything was done in timely manner. Attorney Zayas-Davis did everything proper to make sure everything was correct. I was informed very well. Me being a Military Veteran, the Attorney went out on her way to make sure all resource available to me were utilized. Attorney Zayas-Davis made sure my c...ase was treated well at The Senegal Embassy. She made me confident and knowledgeable in the whole process. She made me and my wife feel comfortable. I am now more knowledgeable then before when it comes to Immigrant Visa process. I Felt like I was family at her office. Attorney Zayas-Davis made herself available for our reach. Attorney Zayas-Davis even continues to provide valuable information after the approval of the case! I am a completely satisfied client!

Fully Recommend

I went to see 4 different lawyers for my case. All of whom told me my case was incredibly difficult and problematic. They each offered me solutions but none of them seemed to be 'on my side'. Marilyn didn't have much time but she made the effort to listen to my story , took the time to think out all ...possible scenarios and explain them to me fully - as well as reassured me that she was on my side whatever happened. The dedication, compassion and kindness she showed to me, a stranger, was unmatched even before I designated her as my attorney. Once she had my file, she worked diligently to make sure my life and that of my children would not be disrupted. She called me personally each time there was a milestone in my case and effectively outlined next steps. I would recommend her fully to anyone with any immigration issue, not only can she be trusted to do the utmost on your behalf but you can rest assured she knows all the little intricacies of immigration law inside out and will use that wealth of knowledge to advocate on your behalf.

Great Attorney

She is a great Attorney that always spoke with the truth, since 2002 I have been waiting due to the laws, finally I am a Resident. She has always kept me inform of any changes in the law. Pretty much my whole family has worked with her and we all have been satisfied with her services.

Excellent Caring Attorney

I highly recommend Ms. Zayas-Davis. She is an excellent attorney that went the extra mile to insure my residency case was successful. There were several issues that came up and with her expertise and skill the issues were resolved. This was very hard on me and without her compassion and empathy I... couldn't have made it. She is very thorough and kept in touch to update me on the case and see how I was doing. She is not only a great attorney but an even better person.
