Immigration Support - Recommend

Had a great experience with Miranda who helped me with my wife's I485 and my I130 for change of status. The package was worked with her and her paralegal in a very smooth way and had no request for evidence asked by USCIS meaning all information was complete.

Five-Star service

Five-Stars for Miranda Baner. I am a Retired Army combat veteran and I support and endorse legal representation from Miranda Baner. She displayed patience and a true sense of seeking a prompt resolution from day one. She gave me the B.L.U.F. (Bottom-Line Up Front), which I thoroughly appreciated ...without being pretentious or condescending. Additionally, she never gave me the impression that she was billing me unnecessarily or overcharging for her professional services. A big THANK YOU to Miranda for your support, patience and professionalism!

Warmest thanks to a life changing experience

We hired Atty. Miranda to help with my green card application in the U.S. While the process was undoubtedly complex, Atty Miranda and her team were consistently supportive, providing us with clear direction and what to expect at every stage. Thanks to her and her team's support diligent effort...s, our application was approved just a few months after submission. We are ecstatic and we couldn’t have done it without Miranda's expert advice and thorough support. A special thanks to her diligent paralegal, Keegan for handling follow-ups and keeping us on track. We’re deeply grateful for their exceptional service. Cheers!

Excellent Immigration Attorney

Excellent immigration attorney for my husband and my mom. Attorney Miranda was very quick to respond to my immigration questions and I recommended her to my friends.

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.
