Fantasy Lawyer!

Carrie possess all of the qualities of a fantasy lawyer: Knowledgeable, passionate, thorough, a great listener, awesome problem-solver, diligent, persistent, responsive, prompt, funny, strong, non-judgmental, and quick. My foreign husband and I approached her with a really complicated green card ...scenario. We had been going around and around with other lawyers, trying to figure out even how to approach the problem. Carrie not only immediately grasped the complexity of the situation, but offered realistic options and an organizational plan for getting the ball rolling. We were extremely impressed with Carrie's breadth of knowledge of immigration law. Her confidence, passion, and caring really make us feel like we are in good hands and have a good chance of getting the results we are seeking.

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.

Ms Rosenbaum's Work Review

Ms. Rosenbaum successfully assisted my family with a difficult situation with Customs and Border Protection. Eventhough we live in Indonesia and our communication were mainly through emails, she managed to explain everything very clearly about our situation, and work very hard to help us won the ...case. We were very pleased with her work and would highly recommend her to those who may have the same situation as ours.

Compassionate Immigration Lawyer

Carrie helped us win our green card case on the first try. She's smart, friendly and her fee was very reasonable. Most of all though, she went out of her way to make my husband and me feel comfortable throughout the process. I sent her an incredible number of emails with nervous questions, and each t...ime she responded immediately with a thoughtful response and a reassuring message along the lines of "It's my job to help you... send me any questions you have." She believed in us and in our case from the get go, and this got us through some of the more trying moments of the process (like immigration losing a piece of our evidence, and waiting for the welcome letter).

"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."
