Madeline AF Ellis's Lawyer Endorsements
"Top-notch attorney. Highly respected in the legal community."
"When Ms. Ellis was based in Bangkok, I referred to her a tricky E-1 visa application for a Thai national. She did a superlative job of helping to secure his E-1 visa on a rapid timeframe. Maddy is excellent attorney, and I'm glad to see she is back in the United States, where she can put her expertise and work ethic to even better use for the largest number of people. I recommend her without hesitation."
"I endorse Madeline Ellis. She did a great job updating parts of my immigration law treatise. She is a great writer and researcher. Steve Yale-Loehr"
"I have known Ms. Ellis for many years. She is an expert in U.S. immigration law matters and is also a pleasure to work with. Worth noting is her can do, no nonsense approach when achieving results for her clients. Ms. Ellis has an impressive record of achievement, having worked at top U.S. law firms and key government agencies. Any client would be fortunate to have her as their attorney. I endorse her without reservation!"
