Helen Tarokic

Immigration lawyer | Jul 27

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"She has trained on T visas for victims of human trafficking and has worked to stay on the cutting edge of immigration law practice. Also, she is one of the kindest people I know. Her legal work should be highly valued by her clients and she has earned the respect of her peers. It's so important to choose the right immigration lawyer. Also, cooperation with the lawyer, coming to appointments or court on time, and being respectful of her time, will help her help her clients the most. I hope anyone who hires her for representation knows how lucky they are!"

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.
