The BEST immigration lawyer in the USA

I highly recommend Angela to anyone who is dealing with any kind of immigration issues. She is the BEST lawyer in Indiana, I would even go on to say that she is one of the BEST lawyers in the United States. My case was extremely complex and unprecedented. It was so complicated that I had to change la...wyers because they didn’t know how to handle it. Someone recommended Angela because she is known for handling very complicated cases. My case included a custody battle involving 3 continents (Africa, Europe, and America), a search warrant by the international police organization, and being in removal proceedings in the US after applying for asylum. This is only a light overview of my case, it was more complicated than that. Angela is very professional, patient, always available, and extremely knowledgeable about the US immigration law. She makes you feel like you are part of her family. As my case was never seen before, they were a lot of obstacles along the way that Angela was able to overcome efficiently and in a timely manner. My kids and I received our green cards few weeks ago. I have tears rolling down my face while I am writing this review. If Angela hadn’t handled my case, I would have been removed from the US with my kids. Angela made history with my case. This is the first time that a case like mine was approved in the US immigration system. I deeply RECOMMEND Angela to anyone dealing with immigration issues not only in Indiana but everywhere in the US. You will never ever regret it. Do not waste your time with other lawyers like I did, trust Angela with your case.

Excellent lawyer and person. Angela won my immigration case, a difficult deportation case that other lawyers could not take. Very profecional.

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.
