I hired Ms.Nancy Taylor Shivers. She helped me with my imigration case and took it very professional. I'm very pleased with her work I highly recommend this lawyer for anyone who is having trouble with their imigration case. She is very honest and extremely helpful.

She is straight forward and knoweledgable and advise what is needed for the cse. She looks tuff but she deals case very nicely.

I was working on J1 status years ago and need to go through H1B visa application. I did not know her before but find it was nice to have in my case. I asked what kind of documents we need to present she mentioned everything what I need to submit, when I need to submit and what are the filing fee and ...other necessary charges. Then I follow the steps step by step manner it worked fine. After the H1B I submit my Green Card process through this attorney. She is very experienced and able to answer any difficult questions.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
