Life Saver

Kathryn will fight and her attention to detail is next to none. Very thorough and she does her homework. Confident and relentless. Don't even think about other attorneys who will charge you a retainer with a free consultation. You will get what you pay for. Go to SDP and associates and let the ...professionals handle your case.

Look no further than Ms. Kathryn

I am literally short of words to describe how amazing Kathryn was with my husbands case. She was detail oriented, passionate about my husbands asylum case, professional but yet still empathetic towards all our concerns. She broke down every legal term, layed out all our options and worked above and ...beyond to get my husband home within a shorter time frame than he was suppose to. I know God is using her to make a difference in the lives of individuals like my husband and I. If you have an asylum case and want to set yourself up for success look no further than for Ms. Kathryn Weber. Thank you again Kathryn.

Excellent immigration attorney

Kathryn helped me obtain legal permanent residency for my spouse after our marriage. Although our case seemed to be straight-forward, we ran into an unforeseen problem at our immigration interview. Kathryn quickly identified a solution for us and we were very thankful to have her as our advocate. She... also followed up many times with our case officer to ensure our case was adjudicated in a timely fashion. My only complaint would be the somewhat opaque pricing scheme employed by her firm (e.g. paying by the hour without knowing how many hours it would take rather than paying for a final product), but I think this is standard practice in the industry. I would highly recommend Kathryn for anyone seeking legal advice on immigration matters.

Highest Recommendation!

I used Kathryn for my permanent residency application 5 years ago and when it became time to apply for my Citizenship, I promptly received a notification from her firm informing me of my options. Kathryn as always facilitated everything and made it very easy and clear on what to expect from the appl...ication process. Everything went smoothly and Kathryn prepared me for every possible scenario. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a highly skilled and very professional Immigration Lawyer.

Best Lawyer Ever!!

Even though, I was referred to Kathryn Weber by a coworker who was in removal process and Kathryn help him resolve it, my husband and I still did our research. We went to couple of lawyers for consultation, but we decided to hire Kathryn because she seemed knowledge and also because of the positive r...eviews that she had. We had a very complicated case, after about 5 years from the first initially immigration interview our case was denied based on marriage fraud (We had a different Laywer not Kathryn at that time). It was easy to work with Kathryn and Susan (the best legal assistance ever! Love her to death). Throughout the process Kathryn guided us step by step and kept us informed with what’s going on. It was very easy to communicate with Kathryn, I used mostly emails, she was great at responding quickly. No words can express how grateful I am to Kathryn and her legal assistant Susan. Because of Kathryn and her hard work, I am now able to call myself a lawful permanent resident. I will highly recommend her. I will use Kathryn again for sure when for applying for citizenship.

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.
