Best immigration attorney

Lisa is an exceptional attorney; knowledgeable, trustworthy and extremely dedicated to her clients. She helped me obtain employer based green card and few months later she completed my husband’s following to join application, so he got his green card as well. There was no email that Lisa would not re...spond to or question that she would not know answer to. At every step of the process, we were confident that our case is in the best hands possible. In addition, she is supported by a wonderful team who was helpful and responsive to our questions and concerns. Highly recommended.

Olga and Lukasz, I am really happy that we were successful in getting you your permanent residence. After 33 years of practicing immigration law, I still jump up and down in the office when I see the email that indicates that the permanent residence was approved. I am glad to hear that you had confidence and trust in us, that is so important to a good working attorney-client relationship. I think the team is really wonderful, I look forward to coming to the office every day.

Highly Recommended

I know Lisa for the past 2 years. I met her initially in my University (UIUC) for a Immigration info session. A huge shout out to her as she makes an effort every year to travel and educate us with the Immigration process for International students. Lisa was very knowledge and precise. She has been k...ind and helpful since then. I have consulted Lisa for international travel options on OPT without a job offer and a number of times regarding my H1B petition from F1. It amazes me how she can respond at such a faster phase (almost instant) with a clear response and all possible options for the situation. I would highly recommend Lisa if you have any doubts with the US Immigration process!

Thank you for the kind words. I really like the time I get to spend with international students. I have been holding these kind of informative sessions at several universities (UIUC, DePaul, University of Toledo, Loyola, University of Illinois (UIC), UChicago Booth School of Business, School of the Art Institute of Chicago, going back to the 1990s. I think it is really important for students to create a strategy outlining immigration options as early as possible.

NIW

Lisa Scott is one amazing lawyer who goes above and beyond to help, and is arguably one of the best in the Chicago. I had reached out to Lisa last year in hopes to get an O-1 Artist Visa for visual arts after being a recent graduate in my Optional Practical Training (OPT). Instead of doing the bare m...inimum, Lisa and her team reviewed my case and decided to go with a National Interest Waiver (NIW). Throughout the whole entire process Lisa and her team were professional, kind, courteous, and timely with responses. It’s important to understand the people who work with Lisa both present and past are empathetic and ethical individuals that understand the anxieties and difficulty of immigration. The team is constantly working (including Lisa)- they reply to email promptly even during the weekends.  

It’s important to note that through the process they drafted professional letters and compiled a polished and organized petition package. I was in constant contact with different members through the entirety of my petition. Fast forward one year with the new changes with immigration. I finally received my interview time. Lisa decided to attend my immigration interview to assure that the process will go smoothly. Her being present was helpful and very much appreciated. Then following day my green card was issued and within a week I had the physical card in my hand. Lisa is one lawyer that cannot be emulated. I will keep consulting Lisa for any future immigration lawyer because I learned through the whole process she has a whole reservoir of knowledge. Plus she’s got a great sense of humor and is very charismatic. She truly is wonderful.

Thank you for the kind words, especially for commenting on my "sense of humor". :) I really enjoyed working on your national interest waiver. I learned a lot about your work. I will say that I feel that I am lucky to have had decades of experience in this field that I use everyday to keep up with the new challenges and changes in immigration law.

Amazing attorney!

I met Lisa through one of my friends. She helped me in getting my green card through marriage. In our consultation session, she looked at all our documents and pointed out some mistakes that we had in filling them. She advised us on how to manage everything for our interview.  Even after our consulta...tion session, she responded to all the questions I had through email. We hired her to attend our interview. Having her in the interview was really helpful. She is a professional attorney and she knows what she is doing. I would definitely recommend Lisa.
