Daca to Residence

I had DACA since the start of the program, so I was no stranger to the immigration system. The stakes were much higher with my green card, so I wanted an experienced attorney. Mr. Straub did a fantastic job of preparing my husband and me for the interview. I would have been a complete mess without hi...m. He truly does know how to ease any anxiety prior to an interview and guide us through every possible outcome. I have not seen my dad in nearly four years, and I am so excited to board the flight to visit him finally.

K1 Visa

I tried to get my husband a visa on my own. It was confusing and stressful, but I got through the first part okay. Then everything went wrong, and I got a scary letter from immigration telling me he had to leave. I called Attorney Straub in tears. He calmed me down and gave us a plan. He guided us ev...ery step of the way. I wish we had hired him from the beginning. My husband just got his green card, and we are so excited to move on to the next chapter of our life together in the U.S.

Wonderful Experience, Great Lawyer

Attorney Straub was recommended to us by a friend in the legal field. Not knowing much about immigration, we were hesitant and nervous to contact him. After a few emails, we were able to set up an initial consultation with Attorney Straub. We had many questions, but he explained everything in a very ...clear and easy to understand way. He answered all questions promptly and without hesitation. His knowledge and experience in the field was clear and made us feel much more comfortable with our situation. Attorney Straub is a very courteous and experienced lawyer who is great with his clients. After the initial consultation, we immediately knew we wanted to hire him for our case. Less than a year after our initial consultation, we got our case resolved and Attorney Straub helped us every step of the way. We really appreciated his constant reassurance and guidance throughout the entire process. We would highly recommend him to anyone.

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.
