The BEST!

I literally started my process from 0, no evidence, no deal memos, no nothing. But along with time, a few jobs and Rachel’s guidance and help I got my Visa approved. I heard she was one of the best and he didn’t disappoint, such a joy to work with her!

Best Experience

I’m a professional dancer from Toronto, Canada and was just approved for my O-1 Visa! I could not have asked for a better lawyer than Rachel. She was incredible to work with from start to finish. I was not familiar with the Visa process prior to working with her but she made sure to guide me through ...with ease. I highly recommend!

Wow, just wow!

I cannot thank Rachel enough. She is by far one of the best immigration attorney's in the entire country and I've worked with them all! Rachel exceeds the notion of 'going up and beyond' and stops at nothing to ensure you have the strongest and best visa application humanely possible. Not only is her... hard work, integrity and knowledge unmatched, but she generally cares about you as a person and wants your immigration goals to be met just as much as you do. Her passion is contagious and 'no BS' attitude is refreshing in a world that often lacks morale. With Rachel, you never have to worry about being taken advantaged of, quite the contrary (I actually think her fees should be higher) and you can be at complete peace knowing you are in the most trusted and best hands possible. Thank you Rachel for all your hard work on the renewal of my O-1 visa. It was a true gift getting to work with you and I look forward to working with you again on my green card application. Mazel tov- we did it!!

Thrilled!

Rachel was patient, professional, and incredibly detailed as she walked me through the O1 process step by step with quick and successful results. All during the pandemic! I'll be looking forward to working with her for years to come!

Rachel went the extra mile to get my visa in record time

I met with Rachel in LA on the recommendation of a friend. I liked her straight away, she was easy to talk to and understood my situation. I’m a dancer from London looking for an O1. I kind of let the application drift for a few weeks but then out of the blue got a great job offer shooting in LA. ...I was in a panic - the job offer was ideal as my 2nd deal memo but timing was extremely tight. Rachel thought it was possible - just. She was really good at motivating me to get all the evidence together. Once I sent it to her she was excellent at writing up a brilliant case. She knew exactly what to say and had some fantastic ideas about making the case as strong as possible. She was always available to advise - even with the tricky time difference. She really did everything required and more to get me that visa. It came in record time with just a few hours to spare before I had to get on the plane to LA. I am really grateful to her and would highly recommend her services.

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.
