Lisa Suzanne Anderson's Lawyer Endorsements
"Anytime that I have a client that has immigration questions or issues, I refer them to Lisa Anderson. Lisa's knowledge and experience of immigration law is vast. My clients have been extremely satisfied with her work and I will continue to refer anyone who needs immigration help to her."
"I highly endorse Lisa Suzanne Anderson for her expertise in all areas of immigration law. She and I participated in volunteer work together at a local Los Angeles citizenship clinic and she is always very caring toward those needing immigration assistance. She is also an expert in removal, deportation, appeals and asylum cases. She has years of experience working with immigration clients and is highly regarded in our legal community. I have had an opportunity to see her work and I recommend her without reservation."
"As an attorney, I found myself needing a qualified colleague to advise me on an urgent immigration matter. Lisa Anderson came highly recommended, and now, I am recommending her too as a highly talented and effective immigration lawyer. Lisa possesses a rare combination of qualifications, practical experience, and personal attributes. In addition to her intelligence and knowledge, Lisa brings to the table a uniquely informed perspective – having tried cases on behalf of the Immigration and Naturalization Service at both the trial and appeals stage and, now, as an equity partner of a law firm, guiding clients through the complexities of immigration law. Equally important, Lisa is kind and compassionate. She cares. I cannot speak highly enough of Lisa, not only as an attorney but also as a person."
"Lisa Anderson is one of the most brilliant immigration attorneys in the United States. A UCLA law graduate, and hand picked by President Clinton's Attorney General, Janet Reno, to litigate cases for the Immigration and Naturalization Service. She is a kind, caring, yet tough immigration attorney who solves complex immigration matters with shocking ease. I will always be privileged to be her legal partner and colleague on any and all legal matters."
