Excellent!

Bruna is the best attorney I have known so far! She helped me with my EB3 PERM and everything went really well. She is knowledgeable, competent, and caring. She is always prompt to resolve any issue that comes up, and she figures out the best methods to attend her clients. She really cares about good... results and her fees are fair. I highly recommend her.

Immigration process

Bruna guided me through the immigration process and she helped make the process as painless as possible. Bruna is extremely responsive and kept me informed every step of the way. She is professional, patient, ethical and efficient with the experience and skills to handle the issues - no matter how ch...allenging or complicated.

US Immigration Processes (NIW) Consultation

I got my National Interest Waiver application approved under forty days by the grace of God. Bruna Frota’s (the Attorney at Law) exemplary skill and professional guidance led to the smooth approval without any “Request for Evidence”. She is exceptionally knowledgeable in US Immigration Law and pro...cesses. But, I must warn that Bruna will stretch you until all requirements are met. When she tells you it is ok to go, then know that you have a high chance of receiving your approval without RFE

Excellent immigration lawyer

Bruna has successfully taken care of my Green Card application for my family and me. After losing my VISA and becoming out of status, she proposed me different options, with good assessment for each on likelihood for successful outcome. After deciding to go for a not so simple NIW Green Card process..., she very successfully assisted me, with very clear advice and instructions. Demand has first been challenged by immigration services, finally been approved after she defended my case. I now have just received the Green Cards for my whole family. Not only did she prove to us she was our perfect lawyer for our demand, but she also added her moral support in the long and sometimes challenging process we have followed. Her proficiency in French and Spanish also provided additional help for our bicultural family, as she had perfect understanding of our backgrounds and documentations. I cannot but highly recommend Bruna as Immigration lawyer.

Excellent and Professional Immigration Attorney

Bruna assisted me with preparing my application for permanent residency in the US. She is very knowledgeable and her vast experience with immigration cases was extremely helpful. She is very professional and easy to work with. I am completely satisfied with her work and will continue recommending ...people to contact her for their immigration needs.
