Very happy! Very thankful toward Mrs McCauley and her staff!!

I have hired Mrs. Rhonda McCauley for my permanent residency application first and some years after for my naturalization. And in both cases I am really very happy with the outcome and for having hired Mrs McCauley! First Mrs McCauley is an expert in her field. She is very knowledgeable and has a lot... of experience in her specialty. Secondly, and it's also very important, She and her team have your case "at heart". They believe in what they are doing, they are compassionate people, helpful and supportive. And this is very important when you go through an immigration process that can be long and difficult. Thank you very much Mrs McCauley and to all your staff!!!

HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY

Let me start off by saying that Rhonda has been a great help to my family and I, she has helped us tremendously for almost 10 years. She has helped my family in many different areas including filings of applications and most recently me with my DACA. We would not consider going to any other immigrati...on attorney. She has even insisted on allowing us to have her personal cell phone number so that we are able to contact her at any time. Her staff is very pleasant and her prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend her services to anyone! Recomiendo los servicios de la abogada McCauley a todos.

A answer to my prayers in keeping my American dreams alive

I hired Rhonda McCauley for the first time seven years ago to handle a very delicate situation involving many different agencies and many different problems. She visited with me immediately even traveling over four hours to visit me in a detention center. I was released that same day due to her effor...ts after spending several weeks away from my family. Since that time she has helped me and my extended family on every legal issue that has arisen without a single failure. She and her staff have made me feel as if I were their only client and that my problems were their top priority. She has also helped most of my fellow church members and seeks the Lord's guidance in her work. I highly recommend her to anyone who is needing help with immigration problems. She has always been prompt in returning my calls and answering my questions and her staff is very friendly and seem to be highly skilled.

Experience

Rating:  5.1 (Average)

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2019.

Reprimand issued in AR, 2019

updated on 09/04/2020

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.

Caution issued in AR, 2012

updated on 08/07/2015

A caution means that an attorney did something wrong, but may still practice law. The attorney was cautioned in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior. Details of the infraction are made part of the public record.

Rhonda’s comment:

“The discipline carried a fine of $50 which indicates that this was not considered to be a terribly serious offense. I was unable to prove that I had provided a copy of the Board of Immigration Appeals decision to my client, though it was my contention that they were provided a copy in person. They were not eligible to remain in the U.S. at the time I was hired, but I was able to mitigate their situation over about five years of essentially pro bono representation.”
