Confident and Thorough

Prior to our first meeting with Loide Jorge, my husband and I had met with several other attorneys that told us we had no chance in getting a favorable decision for a green card. According to them, our situation was too complicated and the timeline to organize a case was too short. No one seemed inte...rested in taking us on as clients and those that did didn’t seem confident at all. We were starting to collapse under the weight of it all, when we received Loide’s contact information. After my husband’s consultation with Loide, he was eager to move forward with her. He was happy to feel that she wasn’t intimidated by our bear of a case. After meeting with Loide together, we walked away feeling confident that she was going to give it her all. She immediately organized us and threw us into a whirlwind of activities. It was a demanding process, but she was patient, steadfast, and not afraid to tell us that we were dragging our heels at times. After our application was filed, everything started to fall into place and in just a short period of time Loide was prepping us for our interview. After the interview, we were told by the examiner that the case was complex and not to expect a decision until spring. The interview was in October! In just a little over a month, Loide contacted us with the news that the application was approved. A few days after that, the green card arrived. Today as I write this testimony, my husband is making airline reservations to return home after being away for 10 years. I firmly believe the case Loide prepared for us was so methodically laid out that the examiner was able to extract from the huge file a clear story of events that led to my husband being held hostage to the immigration process for ten long years. We knew if he understood the story, the end result would be favorable. Loide believed in her abilities to put a case together and her confidence became our encouragement. As I look back on everything now, an old saying comes to mind…Some things just have to be believed to be seen.

Smart, Compassionate and Responsive

Ms. Jorge was contacted about a stroke victim, whose medical care was in jeopardy because he was being denied his Social Security benefits, which included Medicare. The client's Social Security was being denied because of his immigration status. The client had an old residency card that needed to be ...replaced. Time was of the essence, because the client needed further surgery and needed to be transferred to a new medical facility. Ms. Jorge was first of all, compassionate, responding to the circumstance of the client with extreme interest and empathy. She immediately rattled off a series of procedures to follow, to expedite the immigration process so that the client could receive the medical benefits that he was due, after working for 45 years in the United States. On the morning of the official immigration meeting, Ms. Jorge was extremely prepared and through her counsel and expertise, we were able to obtain the crucial documentation to ensure the client would receive his benefits. I cannot stress how impressed my family was with her superior knowledge, availability and promptness - she would respond to emails, text messages and phone calls beyond regular business hours. Everything turned out well, thanks to the compassion Ms. Jorge demonstrated in my family's time of need. Ms. Jorge was reassuring in that I could tell that she was very knowledgeable about immigration law. I would recommend Ms. Loide Jorge to anyone. She is a "fierce fighter" for the rights of others!!

Effective and prompt Immigration Service

I had the esteem privilege of having the services rendered by Ms Jorge over the past few months. She demonstrated impeccable knowledge and responded to predicaments promptly and effectively. For the few months she was of service to my wife and I we were indeed humbled by her dedication to our cause. ...She comes highly recommended from us. To Ms Jorge I say than you for a job well done.

Loide Jorge - EXCELLENT CHOICE FOR AN IMMIGRATION ATTORNEY

Loide, got my case at the last minute, with only 2 day to my interview and she was so patient, calm, and thorough. She helped to alleviate all my anxieties. She not is not only an attorney, but she has a human side to here that is exemplary. If I could get the word out to the world, I'd want them ...to know...that Loide is one's best choice of an attorney as it relates to immigration matters. She is extremely knowledgeable and was in touch via email, text and phone.
