Clare is the best immigration attorney I have ever had the pleasure of being represented by.

Clare helped me with getting my i751 filing approved and I could not have asked for a better outcome. She showed so much empathy throughout the process and helped me present my case to uscis with less than 2 weeks to prepare. Clare is very responsive and honest. She truly wants the best for her clien...ts and is an expert in marriage based greencard applications. I would recommend her to all my friends and family and am so glad I got referred to her.

NOT SATISFIED!!!

I hired Corado to petition for my parents... they gave us the option of making monthly payments which were deducted every month from my bank... ok! Clare had lawyer Megan Pastrana to take care of our case, The problem was, They were taking my money but they never did anything to help us, excuse... after excuse, Megan was not professional and lack of experience, always unsure on her words, doubting and making us doubt (no confidence at all) but still getting the monthly payments. We decide not to continue with them, never returned our money ($4,500) Bad personal experience with them. Be careful!

They took my money and then close my file!!!!!!

I retained Clare Corado firm to represent me in an adjustment status case, The WORST law firm ever...They will literally suck the life and money out of you. I paid almost 3x's more than I would pay anywhere else, I thought they might be better than the other firms and they focus on helping each cli...ent as they claim on their website and everywhere!! The truth is that they are dishonest and unreliable, and all they care about is taking your money. About the only person, I'd refer this firm to is someone I truly despise and want to see suffer dearly trying to work with this firm. Other than that, I would gladly give specific details of how this firm only has their best interest (NOT THE CLIENT) in mind.

Citizenship application

I went to see Clare Corado to ask her to review my case for an application for Citizenship I explained to her that I had already been to see other Attorneys in the area and that were not willing to take on my case because it was too complex I explained to Claire my case in as much detail as possi...ble during our first interview and she agreed to take on my case We meet few times to discuss all the details on my case and all the requirements, etc. A couple of months later we had another meeting in which she presented to me the entire document she had prepared that will be attached to support my application for citizenship I was very impressed with the quality of the work , the amount of research she had conducted and the legal arguments she had prepared to support my application Her attitude was very professional from the beginning, she explained to me all the facts about the case and any potential risks I am happy to report that my application for Citizenship has been approved and I know that it was in big part because of all the work and hours she put on to prepare my application and all the supporting documents to go with I since then, have recommended her to all people that I know including my daughter who is going to be going through the same process using the services of Clare Corado Immigration Services Thank you so much God Bless you
