Camille was my supervising attorney where we both worked in Long Beach California. Camille has been instrumental to my knowledge and experience with immigration litigation. While there are thousands of immigration attorneys, all are not created equal. Camille is one of the most knowledgeable and experienced immigration attorneys that I have come to cross paths over the past 13 years.

I endorse this lawyer. Atty. Bowman is a very knowledgeable and experienced immigration attorney. I myself have sought her advice on my earlier removal cases. Not only is she very keen on issues relating to deportation or removal, but she is very astute with issues relating to criminal convictions and their effect on one's eligibility for immigration relief. On top of that, she is honest with her clients and will tell you if you really indeed have a case and won't unnecessarily string you along.
