Excellent Lawyer

Rebecca is an outstanding immigration attorney. My case was complicated! I won't go into much detail, but after reviewing our case she decided to take it. Rebecca is professional, honest, responsive and completely supportive. Thru out this whole process and paperwork preparation she make sure ever...ything is correct and in place. She is very detail oriented attorney , which is very important. Always informed us of each and every step of the any immigration process, promptly responded to my phone calls and e-mails. We felt confident having Rebecca help us file the application. We are so glad we had the opportunity to work with Rebecca Marie Whiting, and would highly recommend.

Thank you for helping us bring our family together!!

Rebecca was amazing when it came to all the filing of paperwork that my husband and I had to file for his immigration. She was very helpful with ALL my questions. She always kept us up-to-date. She was very personable. Anyone that has to go through a nerve-wracking process like we did, would strongly... benefit from her expertise.

Best experience possible with a complicated immigration case!

I met Rebecca Whiting after having an ungoing immigration case for eight years. After INS abandoned my immigration petition for years I just needed to move on with my life and somehow put an end to this situation. My case was complicated due to a divorce being involved. Ms. Whiting laid out a well de...tailed strategy and a year later my case concluded in success. She is a perfect combination of brilliance, passion and empathy. She was always easy to talk to, prompt with answers, highly knowledgable. My only regret is that I haven't contacted her years earlier. It has been an absolute pleasure working with Ms. Whiting and I would strongly recommend her.

  • 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.
