Immigration complex legal challenges

I’m incredibly grateful to Catherine Brown and her staff for their exceptional legal support in bringing my son to America. Facing complex legal challenges, I turned to their firm for assistance, and they exceeded my expectations in every way. Their expertise and dedication were evident from the star...t, and they navigated the process with efficiency and professionalism. Thanks to their efforts, my son is now with me, and I couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend Catherine Brown to anyone in need of legal assistance for immigration matters.

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.
