Mille grazie! Thank you kindly for your testimonial. It has been a pleasure to work with you and your team.

Experienced, knowledgable, and trustworthy. Highly recommended

I consulted Paul to explore the possibility of filing a marriage-based AOS (adjustment of status) application. Paul is concise, detailed, and quite versed in immigration law, he answered all of my questions in full detail, and was more than willing to provide his insight on my case and the potential ...outcome of my situation. I highly recommend retaining Paul's services if you want to file a marriage-based green card application because he's quite organized, transparent, and upfront with your odds of filing a successful immigration application.

Paul and Carol speak also French which is also very convenient.

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.
