Definitely will recommend!!!
I am from Kazakhstan and hired The Okoh-Brown Law Group and they filed my petition in July 2014 and I was very happy with their service. They stayed on top of my case, called me whenever there was something to report. Called me to make sure that I had received my finger print notice and most import...

Great Attorney!
I hired attorney Okoh-Brown to represent me in a child support case. Her rates were very reasonable. She was able to get my child support reduced almost 50% and while we were at court she stayed on top of what was going on at court and caught an error that would have caused us to be there all day. ...

Great Attorney!!
We were amazed at Lisa's competence from the initial consultation. Every attorney my husband consulted in NY & Houston, while I was detained in Houston, TX detention center, stated that there were absolutely no possible way of me being release until my case was over, due to the fact that I was det...

Only cares about her fees
Doesn't care for getting results for you, as long as her fees are taken care of, she'll do the motions needed but doesn't care for the outcome as long as she's paid, and if you want her to stick around until the end, everything is a separate service and a different fee. Doesn't even know who she's ta...
So everyone. I want you all to understand Alma came to me through a service that is called LIMITED SCOPE. she only paid for us to do certain things on her case. What she paid for was done. She did not understand her contract and could not seem to understand even after it was explained to her multiple times. Now due to her lack of understanding what she signed, i am greedy or only care about money which is utter nonsense. I am tired of people who sign documents they don't understand and then want to blame lawyers who cam in an try to help them. We were able to finish helping her but based on the contract she signed with the firm we helped with she had to add services as she went along and pay for any additional services. My representation was limited to whatever the contract said and that was also explained to her. Alma instead of trying to bad mouth me online, seek to understand your contracts. You also did not pay ME. You paid the firm you signed the contract with. It is sad that you do not take any responsibility here and acknowledge that we tried to explain YOUR contract to you. Go back to the firm you signed the contract with and talk with them but don't you dare say all I care about is money. I represent clients for free and I do work on many cases and do not make a dime. I am a damn good attorney and I fight for my clients and I care but what you said here is totally and completely false.
"I endorse this lawyer. Ms. Okoh-Brown is one of the most conscientious attorneys I have dealt with. She really cares about her clients and making sure they are taken care of. A very competent attorney. I normally do not endorse attorneys but this is one I highly recommend."
"It is an honor to endorse Lisa. I worked with Lisa on a criminal defense case wherein my client faced deportation issues if he had accepted a plea. Lisa armed me with the specialized immigration knowledge I needed to provide my client with the tools he needed to make a fully informed decision. We went forward, fought the case and won. Lisa is THE attorney to talk to if you have an immigration issue at hand."
"Lisa is a very conscientious and a very knowledgeable asset to the industry. She is very detailed and extremely patient. She also happens to be very professional who improves the industry by her actions to fellow attorneys and to those who need help with their legal matters."
"I endorse this lawyer. Attorney Okoh-Brown has a wonderful reputation as a zealous advocate for her clients and is a credit to the legal profession."
