About Andrew

Learn Andrew’s areas of practice.

1
Practice area

I am a reasonable fee/low-bono community immigration attorney. My main office is in San Rafael and I share my time between this and my two outpost offices, in Oakland (2 mins from Amtrak Jack London Square) and in Palo Alto - on S. California.

 

I am also the immigration attorney for a local nonprofit - the Brazilian keep my private fees low - the same as the non-profit - since i can't compete with myself. And because I get all the nice clients that way.

 

I limit immigration court work to asylum cases and children, so I don't compete directly with my wonderful colleagues dedicated to removal defense.

 

Come see  me for the smallest form, green cards, naturalization through to a U-Visa or VAWA application, or anything to do with minors or dreamers with immigration issues,

 

Or just for a consultation to talk over your immigration issues and options.  Also, if you are here through the employment route, your lawyers represent your employer, and you might find it helpful to discuss questions with an independent attorney. Particularly one with a long career in business before becoming an attorney.

Amazing attorney who truly cares about you
My husband and I decided to file marriage based adjustment of status on our own since our case was pretty simple. When the interview got scheduled, we started to get nervous. I contacted many lawyers in the area just so I can get information on what to expect. However I was shocked to be told that most lawyers wanted 1000 or more for the service saying that they will need to review everything. Andrew was the only one who understood what I needed took the time to listen to our case gave me the advice I need.

Excellent Service and Support
Andy helped my wife and I with a complex issue that threatened our small business and green card status. He organized our response brilliantly and allayed our fears with solid legal arguments and research...all for a very modest fee. We are very glad to have found him.

Quick Question - quick and helpful answer
I asked a question in the forum, the answer of which I suspected. Andrew gave the answer which was the easiest, quickest way to get something done. Other lawyers gave answers which were time-consuming and resource-intensive. Thanks!

You can't go better than Andy Bartlett!
Andy is a fantastic lawyer who really cares about his clients. He is thorough in his research and recommendations. He goes above and beyond to make his clients aware of all aspects of their issue so that one can make a very informed decision. Most importantly, I really feel Andy is trustworthy and will do the right thing for his client regardless of how much money he can stand to make. When can you say that about a lawyer!? I am used to the fancy NYC lawyers, but I feel Andy has a higher standard than any of them I have worked with. He bills very reasonably and has an a higher almost altruistic goal in his practice of the law. You can't go better than Andy!

Good advice from attorney Bartlett
I had questions about my citizenship status, and attorney Bartlett took the time to explain the legal possibilities. He was kind enough to communicate via several follow up emails, offering good information and suggestions for my situation. Many thanks to attorney Bartlett for his knowledgeable and forthcoming assistance.

Very Specific lawyer
This lawyer is very responsive, specific and detailed in his response. His response gave me some calm at times of frustration in my N400 application. He saved me from wasting my time and my money. He is good guy and I recommend you to route your questions to this person.

Immigrant student
I gave this attorney a scenario and he was on point. Three attorneys responded but his response was the most comprehensive. With his advise I would not err or have any doubt whatsoever to what the law is, what immigration policies are and therefore would not break the law. Extremely helpful and accommodating.
