Ana Maria Schwartz

I retained attorney Ana Maria Schwartz for my permanent residency petition in 2013. She and her office have been very responsive and helpful throughout the whole process. Ms. Ana is knowledgeable about the process and the immigration system. She explained the process and the potential scenarios that ...we may encounter clearly to my husband and I. Through meeting, phone calls, and emails, she has been very patient and proactive in helping me with the petition process. She informed us of everything that was sent to the immigration and sent us a copy of all documents that were submitted. The day of my interview, I remember it was pouring outside but she arrived early. My petition process went smoothly and she was there for us every step of the way. She is attentative and passionate about her clients and a pleasure to work with.

In the middle of my wife's visa process, we learned that we needed to file a waiver to obtain a green card. We spoke to several top lawyers in this field from Houston to Los Angeles. We knew our case was complicated and we needed a great lawyer to help us. Despite their reputation, we never receiv...ed such personalized attention as we did when we interviewing Annie Schwartz. In fact, most of the time, we could not even speak with other attorneys and had only their assistants try to reassure us that their attorney was great. Well, we did not feel comfortable sending money to an attorney we could not speak with. In our first consultation we knew we made the right decision. It was very easy speaking with her and we appreciated the time spent listening to us with no pressure. My first language is English but my wife’s is Spanish, since Annie is perfectly bilingual we both felt very comfortable discussing our case. Despite being located in two different cites, our whole process was completed through emails and phone calls and she produced everything on time. She always answered our questions personally, not through an assistant, over the phone or email and a couple of months later our green card was approved. We highly recommend Annie Schwartz to anybody searching for a great immigration attorney. We haven't thanked her personally, but as soon as we make our way to her city, we will do so. Many thanks to Annie Schwartz and of course we thank God for leading us to her.
