Client

Professional and knowledgeable Attorney, who knows all that she does as far as citizenship cases is concerned. After consulting 5 Attorneys they turn and pay consultation fees of not less $ 150 , they turn me away that there is no way that they could fight my case, " that it's hard at this time of... administration ". They couldn't even take their time to go through the papers i presented to them!!! But amazingly and energetic Carrie to it to perdonal , went through word by word, and adviced me that She will try to fight it and for sure she did upto my interview with immigration officer and indded i went through and now am waiting for my Oath Ceremony invitation. I completely with all my heart recommend her to anybody out there having any case as for immigration at USCIS, no to risk out there with what i went through the 5 Attorney's, JUST TRY CARRIE NGUYEN, YOU WILL NEVER REGRET. She's super and She will handle your case perfectly, hence come out successfully.

Not satisfied

This is about Law offices of Carrie Nguyen in Arlington, TX It would be great if they came out straight forward to their clients about the whole price for their services. From Monday to Friday when they contacted me about an extra $1000 added to my contract (her or her assistant forgot about it when... we were in the office on Monday) not even a full five days that she would charge us for what she said were government fees but we did our research, talked to several other attorneys and we didn't have to pay some of the fees she was talking about.. She kept 1,500 for doing nothing. I can say she did help to get my husband released from ICE but the second time we hired her to help with my husband's green card she did nothing to help us and ripped us off. When we first arrived we talked to Ms. Carey, she told us that it would be 6,000 but when we were pulled back into the room the assistant wrote in an additional 1,225. That was on Mon. June 18 and on Fri. June 22 we got a phone call from her assistant Daisy about the government fees which were 1,000 that she claims she forgot to mention. If you see our contract you can see where she wrote in 1,225. If someone makes a mistake and doesn't put a fee in their contract I understand but you are talking about two fees that add up to 2,225.
