A friend and an attorney

Jennifer Whitlock worked for another office when my husband hired her to deal with my case- bring me to US on my fiance visa. So we cooperated - she from her office and I from my country and everything went smooth because she always new what she was doing and gave me good advice. I came to US, she he...lped me get my Green card and went on a maternity leave. It was time for my son to come and my case was taken by another attorney - and nothing was smooth any more - and not for the reason that we had any legal problems because everything was clear and clean, but the people in the office just didn't know the law so well and we were lost in the fog. So my husband did a little research and found out that Jennifer Whitlock opened her own practice and in no time we found her phone number and transferred our cases to her office. We got so lucky that my son immediately got a 10 year Green Card (she prepared him for the interview and accompanied him) and I have just given my fingerprints for my second Green Card - since my first 2-year expires in December. My next step is bringing my daughter and her family to US and never would I think of another attorney but Jennifer Whitlock to lead us through it. All in all this young woman knows what she is doing, she is ready to help and give answers to your questions at any time of week or day and you feel that you have a wise, confident and reliable friend by your side more than you feel her as just as your attorney.

Highly recommended

She is one of the best attorneys that I have met over the last 25 years. She takes personal interest in your case and will help you with the best legal options; due to her vast understanding of the immigration law. We had an extremely complicated case, and we needed the best lawyer to represent us.... Thank you Jennifer, you are not only a great lawyer but also a kind hearted person. No words can explain what you have done for us. THANKS again.

Excellent immigration attorney!

I had the pleasure of working with Jennifer on my naturalization application. She is professional, realistic, responsive and very detail oriented.  We went through every single detail on my application and she took the time to explain every aspect of the application. She kept me informed at all times... and we worked really well as a team.  To my surprise, she joined me at my oath ceremony which shows how much she really cared. With her guidance and help I am now a proud US Citizen. I would highly recommend Jennifer for any immigration related matters.
