Best of the Best.

My husband and I hired Jesse to represent us in our immigration case. My husband petetition to get me a green card. After we were told nothing can be done by 2 diff immigration attorneys, Jesse told us right away I can do this and she did. We loved how well informed, connected, helpful and honest sh...e was. She not only took her time always kept us Informed in every step of the process and let us know what could be done. If hot a wall she knew a way around it or how to break it. She always made sure we knew everything that was going on with our case. Providing us copies, explaining the process and never just have us hopes but gave us results. She is best of the best and will recommend to anyone who is in need of an immigration attorney. Thanks to her I’m now an American citizen and has giving me a new life and being able to stay for good with my husband. That’s why I give her 5 stars out of 5. Thank you for eveuthinh Jesse and everyone in the Matthew green office. All friendly staff as well.

Best immigration lawyer in the west

Jesse was the only immigration lawyer I spent more than 10 minutes with upon our first meeting. She listened to my story and asked questions and didn’t request an outrageous amount of money for our consultation. Every lawyer I visited here in Tucson Arizona ( total of 7) told me, after taking my mone...y of course, there was no way my husband was ever going to gain legal status in the United States. But then there was Jesse. She was eager, compassionate, and determined to help me and my children fight for my husband. And she did just that. Jesse changed my life. Jesse was professional and returned every phone call when she missed my call, every email. And fought for my husband like she was fighting for someone in her family. I have recommended Jesse to so many people. And the knowledge I gained in working with Jesse has been a blessing. We are forever grateful for her as well as the Law Office of Matthew Green.

Once Again!

We have returned, my husband needed to remove the conditions off of his Resident Card and even though it's not a huge case like our first time around we still chose to work with Jesse again. Why, because we knew we could put all our trust into her to make sure we had everything we needed and if somet...hing went wrong we know she would fight for us until the end if needed. She is always upfront and explains everything in a way we can understand and keeps us updated when things change. Jesse is really outstanding and has always made our case HER case as well. So, look no further because you cannot go wrong with Jesse at the Law Office Of Matthew H. Green.

Great lawyer... amazing results..

From the beginning of my case, I was told my immigration case was hopeless by other lawyers in NV and AZ that took my case and I was told to just accept the deportation and not waste the time or money... My family hired the law offices of Matthew Green in Tucson AZ , who advised me also that my cas...e was near impossible but they can get me home on Bail.. basically I was buying time to spend with my daughters and family ... Mrs. Jesse Evans-Shroeder took my case over... Jesse represented me in front of the Government and made each court appearance count.. With new ideas and arguments that were amazing.. I went from a hopeless case, to winning my case and keeping my US residency and even a good shot at citizenship!! Mrs. Evans is very passionate about her work and treats you like a human being even like you're family. Even during court appearance, she made the whole process easier and less stressful... She fights for you and argues your case with total confidence and no fear of the government attorney or judge.. She was straight forward and keeps you totally informed during the entire court proceeding process!! From beginning to end.. When She won my case in court you can tell she was very happy for my family and I.. which says a lot to me about the person she is, both professionally as my lawyer and as a human being.. My family and I are forever grateful that we found her and she made the impossible happen for me.. I strongly recommend anyone in the immigration system to hire Mrs. Jesse Evans-Schroeder as their attorney .. She will do everything in her power to help you win your case... Thank you very much

Best Imigration lawyer!!

Jesse is the best!! I was picked up by "ICE" in January of 2012 and place in process of removal from the country. Although I had a very difficult case, Jesse explored all options available to help me, advised and prepared me for my day in court. To make long story short I was granted cancelation of r...emoval, along with getting some pending charges pardoned. Recently I became eligible for citizenship so I reached out to Jesse once again. Although my rough record could have caused some bumps in the road at the citizenship interview, she worked her magic. I am eternally greatful for everything she has done for me. I am proud to say that on 09/16/2017 I will be attending my oath ceremony for citizenship.
