Testimony from Rodolpho Pereira

Gisele Ambrosio is an extremely competent and dedicated immigration lawyer. She helped me achieve my dream of practicing my profession in the United States. The immigration process is complex and bureaucratic, but Mrs. Ambrosio and her incredible and oustanding team guided me through every step, f...rom the beginning to the approval of my visa. She and Erica was always available to answer my questions and reassure me. Mrs. Ambrosio is a committed professional who truly cares about the success of her clients. She is a leading figure in the field of immigration and I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for quality legal assistance. I am grateful to Mrs. Ambrosio for her support and guidance. She was instrumental in helping me achieve my dream.

Visa for Individuals with Extraordinary Ability or Achievement O-1B Visa

I worked on several cases to bring foreign artists for a tour in the US. We were using P-3 Visa previously and by using this type of visa we were having a hit and miss approval. By discussing the issue with Gisele, she mentioned that for the type of artists we were bringing a much better visa option ...was the O-1B visa (individuals with extraordinary ability or achievement). Gisele gave us excellent guidance on what documents we would need. With all the evidence collected, Gisele put together a very strong case and by using the premium processing, we actually got the approval for the visa in a matter of 3 days. Gisele provides excellent customer service and always kept us on the loop. I highly recommended her services.

Green card 5 months after applying!

Our experience working with Gisele was great! Communication with her was easy and to the point, we communicated via email, text message and video chat for most of our questions and concerns. Delivery to her office was simple. Though my husband’s case required some additional evidence after submission... to USCIS, this did not hinder our case whatsoever. We received notice of an interview appointment in less than 5 months. Gisele prepared us for the interview in a very clear way and made us feel confident. At our interview Gisele accompanied us and I’m very pleased we made this decision since she did contribute to our interview in a positive way. My husband’s green card arrived exactly 1 week after our interview it was incredible! We are so pleased with our case and preparation provided and guided by Gisele, we recommend her to anyone going through the green card process!

Excellent service, with all the support and attention necessary.

Gisele was always very supportive providing all the information and clarifying any doubts and concerns. We really appreciate her patience with me and my wife throughout the whole process. Besides all the help collecting and organizing all the documents necessary, she brings a strong and powerful pr...esence (having a lot experience in the field) that was essential for our peace of mind and smooth interview. We recommend Gisele to anyone who needs a guiding star in any immigration process. Thank you so much Gisele!!!

Best Immigration Lawyer Out There!

Gisele was extremely helpful during my citizenship application process. I had a bunch of questions and she was always available to answer them quickly + thoroughly. I am from Mexico and after 13 years of living in the USA I was accepted as a citizen and I could be happier with Gisele's services. I hi...ghly recommend her to anyone who wants a lawyer who is truly present + really willing to help you out.!
