Highly recommended for immigrant visa process

Professional, effective and friendly - I can't recommend McEntee Law Group highly enough. My wife and I worked with Ray and Fiona on securing my immigrant visa and always felt like we were in great hands. The team at McEntee Law Group clearly have vast knowledge of a wide range of visa application... processes, but they also have a commitment to making their clients feel supported with regular check-ins, quick replies to emails and an empathetic approach. My wife and I are very grateful to McEntee Law Group and would happily recommend its services to others.

O-1 Visa Approved - Thank you.

Fiona and team assisted us with keeping a key team member on our Innovation and R&D team in the country so we could continue to innovate and get our products to market. I've heard the O1 visa is one of the most difficult visas to get approved for. Fiona and team got us through the process success...fully. They also did all the heavy lifting so the process seemed effortless to us, even though I know it took a lot of work on their end. I couldn’t be more grateful to Fiona and the team for pulling this off! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!

First rate.

The visa process was made so much easier. We’ve been touring the U.S. for many years & Fiona & the team made the process a breeze. Thank you Fiona!

0-1 Visa Application

I completed a successful 0-1 extraordinary alien visa application with Fiona, Raymond and the rest of the MCEntee team. They made the process easy and also moved very quickly in a short time frame. I felt very supported and taken care of. The team of Law Clerks were very quick to get back to me if I ...had any questions or concerns. Visa applications can be really stressful and the team always made me feel like I was looked after. I would highly recommend them to friends and colleagues.

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.
