Professional/ Honest/ Knowledgeable

We came to Ms. Mugambi in search of a honest and trustworthy attorney to help with my husbands legal status. After going to 2-3 other attorneys in the metroplex and getting the run around we were just getting ready to give up. She was recommended to us by a previous client of hers. On our first visit... she explained everything to us and gave us our hope back. She explained in simple terms what we needed and how she and her staff would help us thru everything. And they kept there word. Her and her staff are very professional and treat you with respect and are were always willing to answer our questions and never made us feel uncomfertable. So we are blessed to say that after everything that we have gone thru and with all the help of Ms. Mugambi and staff my husbands waiver was approved. There is not sufficent words to express the joy and blessings that are family is feeling at this time. And it feels great to know that she was always looking out for us . Thank You Ms. Irene Mugambi and to all your wonderful staff as well. So if you are looking for an attorney to get the job done and be honest about it she is the attorney to go to.. They will be with you until the end...

Gets the Job no Matter the Obstacles

By far Irene G. Mugambi is at the top of her profession. Every step of the way she kept me and my wife informed and gave us the best advice on what we should do and how we should approach our legal matters. She never came in with just a plan A. It was always a plan A, a plan B, a plan C and then a pl...an D just in case. She was always prepared and was very knowledgeable. When dealing with her she really cared and wanted genuinely to do the very best for u. Irene has handled my wife's case since 2004 and she took this difficult case when no one else would. Irene navigated my wife through a mine field and never gave up with her difficult situation. I am proud to say my wife was granted her Permanent Resident Card after 10 years of hard work, thanks to Irene G. Mugambi.

rating Mis Irene Mugambi

Irene Mugambi handled my case with knowledge and dedication, which made me feel confident because she knew what she was doing. She listens carefully and provides enough time during consultation. Ms Mugambi's professionalism is the reason I highly recommend her, my recommendation is not just because ...of what I have achieved during may case but her strengths. The best quality of Ms Mugambi is honesty and Trustworthy. From the bottom of my hart I truly would like to thank Ms Mugambi what she did for me and my family.

Honest

Ms. Mugambi is not only knowledgeable, she explains everything very well and is comforting to talk to. She went through all the details of my situation and told me honestly where she could help me and where she couldn't.

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.
