Immigration Case

It's been 3 years when I hired Atty. Elizabeth Rompf Bruen with my immigration case. I am very thankful for her for giving me hope. She is the only lawyer who listened to my case and accepted it without any hesitation. I truly appreciate her effort to explain different options and recommended the bes...t option to proceed with my case. A lawyer with compassion! She is really expert in her field. Truly belongs to the Super Lawyer.

Thanks for everything!

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Elizabeth. She gave me very good support through the Immigration Process. She knew what questions to ask and what issues to address. She was very calm and positive through the process. And……..the bottom line is……..she got the job done. I am very proud and thankf...ul to now be a United States Citizen! I thank Elizabeth for making this happen. Donovan

Student Visa Success!

After contacting several immigration attorneys and being misinformed, I was lucky enough to be referred to Mrs. Bruen. With her advice and legal counseling we were able to find the best solution to my situation. Even though I was not able to change my status while in the US, I was able to successfull...y obtain my visa abroad. She guided me through the process, from filling all the application to getting my interview ready. I am now ready to go back to the US with a student visa and start a new stage in my life. Highly recommended!

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.
