Not for us

I hired Lisa and her firm to help my husband immigration case. It seems as if she cared about the money more than the case. My husbands case was rejected many times, then she stated that the case was to complicated and didn't want to help us any more and refered us to another attorney. Funny thing is... that if she could not handle the case why wasn't any of our money refunded. Isn't ahe supposed to be a specialist with 30 years of immigration cases?

Great experience with Lisa. Would recommend to anyone.

I got an appointment with Lisa on a short notice. She was really nice and answered all my questions with great detail, and advised me on my best options to achieve my immigration goals. She knew exactly what I was talking about and was able to find the waiting times relates to my case pretty quic...kly. I would definitely recommend Lisa to anyone looking for an immigration attorney .

Excellent Lawyer

Our case was too complicate, and whole family was almost at deportation. Now, immigration service withdrew their action, and we are normal state. Lisa Brenman and her law firm is really sincere to client who need their help. We really appreciate all her hard work, and we definately would recommend he...r for most of immigration related cases.

For Chris and your Family- We are so pleased that the Immigration Service reversed its inclination to revoke the lawful status of your family. It is important for USCIS officers to understand language and cultural differences when they interview applicants. Interviewing officers must also be held accountable if they do not follow proper procedures and USCIS regulations. We are happy all of you may now move on with your lives in America.

Lisa has helped our organization to get an employee's visa approved and has gotten approvals of extensions for our employee. She is caring and c...ompassionate, and she has always given us the right advice. We highly recommend Lisa Brenman.

Highly Recommended! Honest, fair and compassionate.

Before coming to see Lisa, I had a bad experience with another immigration attorney in Winston Salem, NC. After that experience i did not have much trust in immigration attorneys. In 2010 while searching for a new attorney I came a cross to several good reviews about Lisa Brenman. I made an appointme...nt to see her and she was honest about the complexity about my case (due to unprofessional doings from my previous attorney). She took our case, we followed her advise and that was the beginning of a wonderful relationship of trust. I am proud to recommend Lisa to anyone with immigration issues because I know that they will get the right advise. Thank you Lisa!
