Have a real tough immigration case ? Contact Irene

First off, i have never taken my time to write reviews , ever. This case however is unique. Irene and her team are well experienced, very professional, organized, dependable, follow-up on ur case and are affordable. Trust me, I've been around the block and have dealt with lots and lots of immigration... attorneys. My case took well over ten years to resolve, at some point the IJ had decided that i be removed from the united states. Irene got my removal cancelled and my adjustment application approved! I usually troll the internet reading immigration case blogs and reviews and never thought someday i be writing one and a postive one at that. If you are reading this review and you are in a bad place like i was immigration wise or have any questions I'll strongly recommend contacting this lawyer. Hopefully someday you will be joyfully writing your own review .

Wow! If you want an attorney who is not afraid to be aggressive in your representation, call Irene Mugambi

First and foremost, I would like to say Irene Mugambi is among the best immigration attorneys around. If you are still deciding on which lawyer to pick and you have her in mind, go for it. A few things I can say about Irene, has the experience, I think this one sets her apart, she is thorough, detai...led, knowledgeable and professional. She has the ability to dissect a case with absolute calm. Nothing seems to rattle this lady or distract her from her goal on a case. She is an approachable and friendly attorney. She has good support staff Janet, and Esther, who will keep you updated on everything, I don’t think you will miss anything with them be it follow up calls or updates. Thanks for the person who recommended me to Irene, I haven’t regretted that decision. If you need a seasoned court/trial attorney, you may want to consider her.

Spousal case

She was very realistic, specific and knowledgeable about our case and the timeline. She guided us thoroughly in times of doubt. She was there for us at the interview and helped us to a succesful acquisition of Green Card.

Excellent Attorney Client Services

I was absolutely honored to have Ms. Mugambi represent me. She is exceptionally professional, knowledgeable, and respectful of not only the client, but the clients' situations. She will be upfront from the very beginning on whether or not she believes she can help you and will not take the case and w...aste time and money if she doesn't feel that she can be successful in the situation. She is honest, timely, and respectful. More than anything, as realistic as she is, she is also a giver of hope when needed. She was a God send and a life changer to me and my family.
