Permanent residency granted - money well spent! Grace is awesome.

After using Rapid Visa to obtain a removal of conditions for my husband (who is from Costa Rica), we received an RFE. We were extremely concerned, so we contracted Grace to help us with the process. It was money well spent! She made sure we put together such a solid portfolio that the USCIS granted m...y husband permanent residency only 2 weeks after receiving our paperwork. We weren't even called in for an interview. Grace was thorough, approachable and down to earth. Don't cut corners - you'll end up having to pay for it later.

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.
