Excellent experience.

Carrie helped me achieve my permanent residency status in the United States. Working with both myself and my wife, Carrie showed that she was not just interested in us as clients, but that she was interested in our lives and our story as people. She was thorough and professional throughout every step... of the way in my path to residency. We encountered a few hiccups along the way and Carrie was there to help us every time not only in terms of clarifying the process, but with creative and substantive solutions to help us overcome these obstacles. She is fair, flexible and genuinely cares about her clients. Immigration processes can alter lives and even under the the most straightforward of conditions, can be stressful and ridden with anxiety. Carrie helped to ease the stress by letting us know what we can expect each step of the way, providing informed and helpful answers to our (many) questions, and made herself available by phone, email and in-person meetings when we needed them. Carrie was integral in our ultimately successful residency case. We would not hesitate to utilize her services again and highly recommend her for anyone in need to legal representation in this area. Thank you Carrie!

great victory!

Carrie won the citizenship case of our son the first tray! It was not an easy case, but because of Carrie’s hard work and commitment, the winning strategy had succeeded. Carrie is a very bright and diligent lawyer. She started the process with careful and intensive analysis of all details. Then she ...adopted an optimal strategy and formulated main arguments. And besides the high professional skills, Carrie has a very nice personality. It was easy to communicate with her. She works via the Internet connection and is available for questions at any time. If you need an immigration attorney, then Carrie is the best choice!

Carrie is a great lawyer!

Working with Carrie has been an amazing journey. I was really impressed after our first meeting when I exposed my case. She needed to do some research before coming up with options to proceed. She said she would e-mail me soon, but I thought it would take her some days. I arrived home and checked my ...e-mail. To my surprise, I had an e-mail from her explaining what my options would be. Such a fast response spoke louder than words so I realized how committed, passionate, hardworking, thorough, responsible and diligent she was. She is a great lawyer with a lot of experience in working with immigration cases. I thought the process would be really long, hard and overwhelming since I had to gather a lot of documents, but she is so detail oriented and organized that I didn’t see the days go by and very soon, the application package was ready to send. It is so easy to work with her through e-mails and phone calls. She is always there to answer questions that arise during the process and also discuss the best options to win the case. Despite the fact that there are a lot terms used by attorneys that sometimes are quite difficult to understand, she always does her best to be as clear as possible as to the terms she uses in such a way that the client understands everything. If you need an attorney for your immigration case, Carrie L. Rosenbaum is undoubtedly the right one. Believe me, you won’t regret it.

Dedicated and honest professional

After trying to deal with 4 other immigration lawyers I turned out to be lucky enough to find Carrie Rosenbaum: 1. We won from the first try! 2. Carrie is result-oriented -- she cared about winning my case (i.e. her professional reputation) more than about getting my money. 3. Her fee was reas...onable and she worked very hard on my case. She spent quite a serious amount of time to carefully examine and research the specifics of my particular case. 4. Carrie was exceptionally diligent and attentive to all details. 5. Carrie gave me a really good understanding of how the law related to my case, she explained everything to me so I could understand what factors were in my favor and what parts of my case were harder. 6. Carrie was with me every time when I needed her. Every single one of the hundreds of my questions received a quick, comprehensive and clear answer. I can say with confidence that Carrie Rosenbaum is a dedicated and honest professional.

Highly recommended!

Carrie Rosenbaum won my husband's case from the first attempt. The case itself wasn't easy and obvious and we were ready for an appeal. While preparing the documents, Carrie was very meticulous, attentive, helpful and knowledgeable. She answered our numerous emails within half an hour, often less,... in non-business hours too. I highly recommend Carrie to those who need an experienced, honest and responsible lawyer.

"I have known Carrie Rosenbaum for several years and have collaborated with her on a few cases. She is extremely dedicated to her profession and her clients. I trust her judgment implicitly as I have observed her thought process, legal arguments, and research methods, which are superb. I have also seen her speak as a panelist at an AILA conference, which she helped organize and where she served as an editor for the conference handbook. She is an excellent and caring attorney and I hold her in high regard professionally and personally."
