Would recommend to anyone looking for immigration help

Rebecca helped my wife and I apply for a Green Card EB-2 with a National Interest Waiver. The process is quite complex and stressful, but she made it very smooth. She will share the right amount of information to advance efficiently without feeling overwhelmed. As Rebecca sent us a copy of the file...s sent to USCIS, you immediately understand the high quality of the work and her high success rate. I would recommend her services to anyone looking for immigration help!

Professional and caring

I consulted Rebecca over the last five years since I decided to start my immigration process. She was always available, prompt and supportive. We worked with Rebecca for the I-751 application to remove conditions on my Green Card. After I obtained my conditional Green Card, Rebecca took care of the I...-751 application (submitting additional evidence for removal of the conditions). She has been great in giving us frequent updates, being very organized and reliable. Three weeks after submitting to the USCIS the packet that she prepared, I received my approval and a week later my permanent Green Card was in my hands! It has been a pleasure to work with her, and I am planning to use her services in the future.

Fabulous experience

Rebecca was refered to me by a friend that hired her to work on a changing status need to permanent resident (greencard) from temporary working Visa. From the moment we first talked on the phone, Rebecca was permanently available to discuss not only any of my questions, but also to deal with my anxi...ety in being proactive to suggest action plans and time lines. I would highly recommend Rebecca to anyone who needs immigration help. My experience was nothing short of fabulous. I am absolutely sure to hire Rebecca whrn the time for my citizenship arrives.

top notch immigration lawyer who truly cares

My wife had to work oversea after we obtained our green card, we worked with Rebecca to make sure we do what we can to make sure our green card and path to citizenship isn't at risk. Throughout the process, Rebecca is always available to provide her professional advice whenever we need and she has sh...owed consistently that she cares about us not only as a client but as another human being. She stayed on top of everything we need to take care of for our citizenship application once we are back in US. She also took time out of her busy schedule to attend my wife's interview and patiently answered all the questions we can think of and made us feel very relaxed and confident throughout the process. I would highly recommend Rebecca to anyone who needs immigration help.

Helped me get my H1-B!

I am from Canada and came to the states for school. I had absolutely no idea what to do when it came time to apply for my visa. Rebecca was really great at answering every question I had clearly and made the entire process feel easy. I felt like I had someone on my side that knew exactly what they ha...d to do and that helped me stay relaxed and stress free. I received my H1-B visa and am now able to stay in the USA!
