You can trust her

If you are seeking a very reputable, knowledgeable and approachable attorney, you are in the best place..don't look any further. I was here reading these five star reviews at some point and am glad I did. The attorney is very thorough and wont waste your time. She is straight to the point and at the ...same time very understanding. The assistants are also very good with communication. I highly recommend Irene Mugambi.

Irene is the best lawyer in the world (my opinion).

Irene is the best lawyer in the world (my opinion). Not only did she took care of my divorce, but she also helped me to get custody of my son ( best feeling ever). I learnt that legal fees are expensive but Irene made it inexpensive and very easy for me. Also She handle my case as if I was her son. I...n fact Irene is a God sent. I strongly recommend her. —-Thanks Felipe and the entire team!!

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 .

The Best Immigration Lawyer!!

I came to Mrs. Mugambi's office after a bad experience with another lawyer. She was so helpful, understanding with my case and went above and beyond to help me. She was able to give me some options to be able to get my case approved. After all her hard work and her Legal Assistant Esther, I was app...roved for my DACA and work permit. I am so happy I came into her office!! I will definitely come back to get her help until I become a U.S. Citizen!!

Irene Mugambi - The Best!

When other's either refused to take our case or said it could not be done for an international adoption from a country in Africa with complicated immigration and adoption laws Irene was open, honest and trustworthy from the get go. She said that it could happen and it did! Her personal communication,... advise and experience was right on target. She is the Lawyer with a Passionate Heart! I highly recommend!

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.
