Excellent immigration lawyer

Pamela did an excellent job helping me with my Greencard and citizenship applications. Pamela was always available to answer questions. She has an in-depth knowledge of both the law and the agency processes that is very helpful in navigating the immigration system. I always felt very confident with P...amela's advice and assistance.

Ms. Hartman is a great professional and a wonderful human being. She has helped a couple of friends and family with their immigration issues and we are very happy with the results.

Got my permanent green card approved!

Pamela was knowledgeable and was the only lawyer that showed optimism regarding my case. I eventually got my green card and I am thankful I chose her to help me in the process. My case was a little complicated because I had a temp green card through marriage but then got divorced. They sent me a RFE ...letter asking for more documents. I will say I also did a lot of the work, gathering documents and putting together a good application as much as I could. And she put it all together and wrote a nice cover letter, etc. Together we were able to get my permanent green card application approved!
