DACA Application

Vanya Hession is a great Attorney! She understood the law like the back of her hand, and her experience dealing with immigration cases has developed her instincts very well. Personally I like to know whats going on in my case from time to time, and an open dialogue with my attorney is very importa...nt to me. Vanya Hession was very timely in her email responses and understood how important this case was to me. She's thorough in her work, provides logical arguments, and considers all options before advising a plan of action. 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.
