Posted by Micene | March 01, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Immigration

Professional and Courteous

Over the years (H1, Green Card, Naturalization), I have been lucky to have benefited from Elaine Kimbrell's advice and support. She - and other attorneys on the Ware | Immigration team including Elaine Kimbrell, Samantha and paralegals Julie and Yolanda - guided me every step of the immigration pro...cess. I always felt that I was receiving the best advice at the right time, with the right level of communication, follow-up, and support as needed throughout the process. All that with a human touch. I would recommend Ms. Kimbrell or Ware Immigration to anyone seeking help with their immigration journey.

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.
