Amazing attorney!

Emily helped our family to get our citizenship. She is brilliant in her field and truly understands visas and immigration laws. We worked remote with her and she was available to answer any questions via phone or email. In addition to accurately filling out all paperwork, she helped us prepare for... interviews. I would highly recommend Emily for any immigration needs.

She is a professional

Emily was extraordinary! Very clear, efficient, and professional. We had our L1/2 visas extended with Emily's office. The process was as fast as it could get. We didn't feel we needed to provide any unnecessary information, like in previous extensions with other law firms. The process was swift, an...d we received the authorisation and extension with no need for any additional information. After having a bad previous experience with law firms and hearing many stories from friends regarding their bad experience with law firms taking care of their visa extension or green card, I would most definitely recommend Emily Singer Hurvits to anyone.

Emily is the best

Over the past four years, I’ve had the privilege of working with Emily, who has guided me through some of the most challenging experiences of my life. Navigating the complexities of the O-1 work visa and EB-1 visa was no easy feat, and I faced more obstacles than most could imagine. From multiple RFE...s, denials, litigation, and interviews—just hearing these terms might give anyone a headache, and you can probably understand what I went through. But Emily was there with me every step of the way, turning what seemed like insurmountable hurdles into victories. In the end, I received the approvals I needed, and it’s all thanks to her unwavering support and expertise. Even with all the issues I faced, the strength of my case was never in question. Emily built my case with meticulous detail and professionalism, taking the time to truly understand my field and finding the best ways to showcase my qualifications. Her dedication was unparalleled; she personally handled every aspect of my case, from writing to filing, and her responsiveness was a lifeline, especially in urgent situations. Through all the ups and downs, Emily became more than just an attorney to me—she became a trusted friend. As the world around us changed, her consistent support remained a source of comfort. I am beyond grateful for everything she has done for me, and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to have by my side throughout this journey.
