Exceptional Attorney

Olga is an exceptional attorney who I have had the honor of knowing as both a colleague and friend. I first met Olga when I joined Gardner and Taylor, PLLC as a Legal Assistant. Olga applies her extensive knowledge of immigration law to the various industries she represents which includes, but is not... limited to, medical manufacturing; mining; fitness; and engineering. Olga is committed to her clients and through her kindness and compassion, she creates a wonderful client experience.

An Expert and a Wonderful Human Being

I have worked with Olga for over a decade and she has been outstanding in her help with my clients and their individual immigration challenges. Olga is a subject matter expert and I have used her to help navigate the complex and ever-changing landscape in immigration as it relates to federal emplo...yment law. Olga is quick to respond and helpful in all of her interactions and she is the consumate professional. I appreciate her skills and her follow-up and I would recommend her to anyone in need of immigration law expertise. Olga, thank you for all you do. Joe Tate SPHR - SHRM, SCP

One half of the best immigration attorneys in Utah

18 years. My path to naturalization took 18 years, and Olga has been on my team for 15 of them, advicing and guiding me in the process. Olga started advicing me in 2008 when I filed for my permanent residency, and for the next 15 years, first as law clerk, and then as my attorney, has guided me th...rough H1B apps, employment authorizations, travel permits, a permanent residency, and finally the naturalization process, in May 2023. Olga was most helpful in guiding me through my permanent residency application and the subsequent processes. She took care to explain what needed to be done at every step of the process, and followed up to make sure I had done my part. She was instrumental in helping me assemble the documents I needed at every step, and offered excellent advice on what to do when I didn't have a document we needed. Olga is also a quick communicator, and I have sometimes gotten answers to my questions within minutes(!) She has always been patient and professional answering my numerous questions. I am not just speaking from personal experience. I have worked for the same Utah employer for the last 18 years, and starting with me in 2005, Olga's team at Garder & Taylor have been the go-to immigration attorneys for my employer. Over the years, I have seen Olga guide almost 100 of my fellow employees through the immigration process, and all of them had glowing reviews. I highly recommend Olga for her professionalism, knowledge, and because she makes the immigration process seem easy.

  • 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.
