Highly Recommended!!!! First Class immigration attorney.

Bruna and her staff provided assistance with obtaining my wife's Green Card. They were the utmost professionals. Great communication; in the initial consultation Bruna provided a clear explanation and walked us through the process and timing of such. Any time throughout the process when we had a ...question or concern Bruna and her staff quickly provided a response. Bruna provided what she promised and more and my wife's Green Card was obtained with no issues. Fees were also reasonable.

Bruna fez do meu sonho Uma realidade. Super competente, pega o seu case com garras e dentes, parece que batalha por causa proprietary. Atende e responde as ligacoes te mantem atualizado de tudo. Melhor escolha q fiz. Meu advogado anterior so fez besteira. Gracas a Deus apareceu a Bruna na minha vida.... Recomendo de olhos fechados!

Bruna is an excellent professional, she helped me a lot with my immigration process in the USA, giving me quick assistance at all times, letting me know each step of the process. My green card has been approved! I highly recommend Bruna.

Dependable and Excellent Immigration Attorney

A friend referred Bruna Frota to me as an immigration lawyer. Bruna is a real, honest and passionate immigration lawyer. From the time of my consultation until the time my I-140 immigrant petition under national interest waiver (NIW) was approved, she was with me every step of the way. She is very ea...sily accessible, and respond to emails and text messages almost immediately. She was efficient and timely in preparing the paperwork, forms for every stage of the application, and was diligent and thorough in creating a comprehensive case file to ensure I was providing all information necessary for a successful adjudication of my case. My application was successful - and fast - and this was largely due to the care she took in advising me on all areas of the process. There was not a single issue. I am extremely proud of the quality of legal representation I received from her and I would highly recommend Bruna to anyone who is looking for an immigration attorney.

Competent , realiable and ethical attorney.

After a bad experience with a law firm in the U.S. where my relative’s EB1A I-140 was denied, I decided to change counsels and hired attorney Bruna Frota because she came highly recommended by some friends. She was very Throughly on her legal analysis and made my case very strong from the get-go. Her... team was always engaged and available to answer questions via text, email and phone. They were always available and met all deadlines promised which was essential in my case. I am a physician and thanks to her spectacular work I will be able to avoid the J-1 physician route and obtain my work permit before starting my residency.
