The most professional and experienced US Immigration Attorney in Bellingham

I have been associated with Drew Pettus for 7 years. I have referred associates to him for help with immigration issues and fiance visas. My referrals have praised his work highly. Drew cares deeply for his clients and the outcome of their particular case. If you have issues in any area of immigratio...n, you will not find a more professional and experienced attorney in US Immigration.

Top marks

Drew was instrumental at not only obtaining an E1 visa for myself, but also explaining the process and keeping me in the loop. At all times Drew was there for me not only in the beginning but also for the renewals. My highest recommendations for a excellent lawyer and someone who has become a great ...friend and confidant

Knowledgeable and competent

We retained the services of Mr. Pettus to acquire a renewal of an E2 Investor Visa which due to the circumstances and changes within our corporate structure was a difficult and rather confusing renewal application. We had retained the services of the attorney who applied for and obtained the origin...al E2 (so there was a complete history of the application) he advised that it was not possible to obtain the renewal - that was not an option for us. We were given a referral to Mr. Pettus. After our original discussions, we provided Mr. Pettus with all of the documentation he requested, together with the necessary retainer. Within a very short time, the "difficult and unattainable" renewal was in our hands, complete. We found Mr. Pettus competent, very knowledgeable and extremely efficient with a process that can be quite daunting. We would highly recommend him to anyone with a complex immigration application.

E2 Visa

We have used Drew Pettus as our immigration lawyer for the last 15 years. He did an excellent and prompt job on all of our Visas and our business requirements. I would highly recommend him for any immigration law dealings.

Knowledgeable, Competent, and Professional

Drew Pettus has represented me for more than 15 years. He successfully filed E2 and Permanent Residence applications on my behalf. I have found Drew to be knowledgeable, his advice accurate, and his work most professional. I would highly recommend Drew to anyone seeking immigration assistance.

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.
