Assisted in Change of Status

Julie was thorough and professional throughout the process. She guided us in collecting the necessary documentation and preparing for the interview with USCIS. The result was an interview that went better than could have reasonably been expected.

Excellent service

I am a U.S. citizen. My wife is on her H1B. We hired Julie to get my wife's conditional permanent resident card. Julie was very professional, patient, and kind. She provided five star service. Below are the steps: 1, she listened to our love and relationship history and also told us what to expec...t in the application process, and what documents were needed to prove our relationship 2, through emails & hard copies, we provided our documents for her to gather. 3, we had appointment again. And she finalized the package that was submitted to government 4, My wife received the notice for finger print and then the interview, faster than the average time that people typically spend. (Julie said that's probably because our case doesn't have too much complexity) 5, Julie went to the government interview with us, and our case got approved soon after the interview. We're waiting for the card now. I think what Julie did especially well through the process was that she always communicate with you, the more you're familiar with the process the more control you'll build. On the other hand she listens to your concerns. She tells you what is special in your case, what is not a big problem, how might gov "challenge" you, and how you "defend" it by providing correct material. She help you choose best strategy. Also, she gave us a mock interview which helped a lot in preparing the real one. To sum up, we are very satisfied with her service

Knowledgeable, organized and helpful

We contacted Julie to help with my husband's permanent residency application. With her, the process couldn't have been more easy. She was very organized and helped us to move through the process very efficiently. Or application was very straightforward as my husband is Canadian but it was clear th...at her experience is working with clients who have more complex cases.

Green card filing

I first met Julie(yes she said it was ok to call her that) thru a referral and came highly recommended. I was impressed immediately upon meeting her as she was very down to earth. That in itself made me comfortable enough to open up to her. The smile and other attributes she possess made it easy for ...me to come back. Even though Julie stated that we(my partner and I) didn't have to hire her after the initial consultation, I felt the need to. I just knew she was the one we needed to handle our case. Our uneasiness and nervousness(due to our difficult case that I assumed would be difficult) was quickly calmed and soothed with soft kind words. I recommend Mrs Julie Reiter Pellerite for all immigration needs. To make this short and sweet, our case was handled in such an expert way that we are currently celebrating our freedom in the USA. Thanks Julie. Just know that we are coming back in 4 plus years for our citizenship filing. Need a great immigration attorney please give her a call. Always there to accommodate even with strict work and personal schedules. Before I close my lengthy review I must say *MEGA THANKS JULIE*

If anyone can bring joy into navigating the immigration process, it is Julie Reiter Pellerite!

We worked with Julie for our needs with a fiance visa and the subsequent adjustment of status. When we think of working with Julie, what comes to mind is how very attentive and responsive she was and efficient in her work. She inspired confidence in us in what can be a very daunting process. She was ...patient with us yet pushed us along in the most perfect way. She knows what she is doing - she is very professional, intelligent, and compassionate. She truly walks with her clients through their immigration experience equipping them with all the information they need in order to make the most informed decisions. Any time we had a question or were confused in the process, she was always there and willing to answer all of our questions. She is organized and systematic in her work - respecting the myriad of steps necessary in the entire process. She is thorough understanding the weight of the steps, timelines, and decisions. Most importantly, we felt confident every step of the way because we had Julie leading us through it. We knew she had our best interest at heart and was as invested in the success of our work together as we were. From Erin: When I think back to when we first began the conversation about the fiance visa in 2013, she sent a list of all the steps. It felt crippling when I first received it. It was three pages long and I felt like I was trying to understand another language. I expressed this to Julie and she affirmed how overwhelming it looked and assured me that we would get through it together. I never doubted that assurance and from that moment, I know we were in it together. We went on to affectionately name the three of us as "Team Amor"! When we were coming upon the final step of the fiance visa process, I gasped and said to Julie, "We did it! You were right - we were able to do it!" Fast forward to 2019 and we are ready to engage in services again with Julie to lead us through the citizenship process. We have no doubt that Julie will lead us with the same joy, professionalism, and confidence as she did previously. If anyone can bring joy into navigating the immigration process, it is Julie Reiter Pellerite!
