Very reliable immigration laywer

Amy has helped me over the last two years for H1B transfer, EAD/AP and AOS applications, and it was a very pleasant experience. Amy has been very supportive and helpful along the way, helping me with preparing paperwork, preparing for interviews, and being very patient with all my questions. I consid...er myself being lucky to work with her for my immigration cases.

Awesome Immigration Lawyer

Amy helped my husband get his adjustment of status and green card in less than a year. My husband and I would recommend Amy to anyone dealing with immigration issues. Amy made the process very pleasant and easy to follow. She guided us through the whole process of the application and took care of eve...rything until the end. All we had to do was to follow her instructions and advices. We are very glad to have Amy help us with our case.

Trustful lawyer

I have been working with Amy for last few years for my green card process. She started the project with very much comprehensive explanation on the process, risks and opportunities. During the process, she has provided not only excellent high level support on my case but also tried to enagage in the... personal details. Whenever I made some urgent inquiries she has been very responsive so that there would be minimal delays in making progress. I strongly recommend her as your immigration attorney.

Visa Application/Renewal

Amy Royalty has assisted my employer/myself with my visa applications/renewals over the past four years while I have worked in the United States. Amy has always been very professional, courteous, responsive and thoughtful throughout the time we have worked together. Amy and her team definitely 'g...o the extra mile' to ensure that there are no unexpected surprises through the application/renewal process. I have observed this on a few different occasions now and I am extremely grateful for their consideration. It has been an absolute pleasure to work with Amy and I highly recommend her.

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.
