Thank you

For my Adjustment of Status case, Kristie has been very responsive and very thorough about the process. She conducted a very thorough interview to gather the necessary information from us, explained all of the forms, walked us through the application process and what we could expect, gave a detailed... list of the documents and information that we needed to gather, and handled everything in a way that made the process understandable, as easy as possible for us, and in a manner that showed she truly cared about us and attaining the positive outcome we sought. She guided us every step of the way from filling applications to case approval and everything in between. Due to COVID 19, so many things have changed in application process and Kristie updated us every step of the way. We were at ease due to her support during the whole process which led to the positive outcome. I would definitely recommend her for any immigration services.

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.
