Lisa Scott

My partner and I had a consultation with Lisa about whether to go for a K-1 visa or a CR-1 visa to bring my partner into the US. Lisa was very helpful during the consultation, and provided us both with a lot of information regarding both our specific case, and the general process as a whole. She answ...ered a ton of our questions, and it was immediately clear that she not only understood the process as a whole, but had specifics that pertained to our case in particular. We both came out of the consultation feeling way more confident about the process. During the entire consultation, she was also super kind and friendly. I can't recommend Lisa enough, she was amazing to work with! I am so glad we sought her out for a consultation.

I’m currently a rising senior in high school, and the college application was looming ahead. I was very desperate to get my green card because I knew that I would need it to apply to many big scholarships as well as receive federal aid. My family had been waiting for 6 long years, with practically ra...dio silence from USCIS on our application status. Then, in March of this year, we received a Notice of Intent to Deny (NOID) from them, giving us 30 days to respond with evidence, lest we face deportation. That was a terrifying moment; I felt all my college dreams and future hopes slipping out of my fingers. My mother and I went to speak to the lawyer we had at the time (not Lisa), and he basically gave up on us immediately. He told us how impossible our case was, and how there was really no way to fight it and we should pretty much start getting packed and ready for deportation. We left his office and made the executive decision to get a different, better lawyer. We found Lisa online (this website actually!) right after, made a phone call to her office and within half an hour, were on our way to her office. While meeting her for the first time, she immediately struck me as an extremely attentive and caring listener, which let me know that she is an attorney who really cares about her clients. We gave her the copy of the NOID letter to read and, contrary to our previous lawyer’s opinion, did not consider our case impossible at all. Within the hour of meeting her, she had already strategized an approach for our case and gave us more hope than we’d felt in a while. She was unbelievably kind, empathetic and above all, amazing at her job. It was obvious to us while working with her that she knew very well what she was doing, and that she had a passion for it. She helped us successfully have our best response of evidence packaged in the allotted 30 days and sent back to USCIS. We were then back to waiting again. During our waiting time, I had also been pursuing a summer internship at Fermi National Acceleration Lab (Fermilab). I was extremely excited about this new opportunity, but I was almost unable to do it because I lacked not only a green card, but a valid work authorization. Wonderful Lisa, again, stepped in and directed me towards a solution for this problem. She got me in contact with someone in the senator’s office, who helped me get my application for work authorization expedited, and it came right in time for me to work at Fermilab! It was honestly a dream come true, and I appreciate Lisa greatly for helping me make it happen. Just 2 days ago, we received a letter in the mail from USCIS: An Approval Notice. Our green card was approved! I’ve never felt more joy. It was unbelievable timing as well: right before I entered the bulk of my college applications. After waiting for that news for 6 years, Lisa made it happen within 5 months, which is simply a testament to her incredible skill level as an attorney. I wholeheartedly recommend her as a lawyer; she cares about her clients and will put in all her efforts to help you get what you need. Lisa’s the best!

My L1B and L1A visa processes had been previously managed by a different law firm. When moving forward with a green card petition the assessment provided was vague and the attention received was not up to my standards so I decided to seek a different firm to review my immigration status and represent... me. From beginning to end the process was flawless. Prior to accepting representing me Lisa reviewed my case, requested a one on one meeting in which she formulated multiple questions and by the end of that meeting she had already laid out a clear legal strategy to petition a green card. After that first meeting, the process continued to be flawless and dynamic, with a robust team following up with me to ensure I provided all the necessary information in a timely manner. Lisa and her team provided detailed information during every stage of the process and guided me with professional and kind attention that was much appreciated. I highly recommend Lisa and the Scott Group Migration Law Group.
