Great Lawyer!

Rebecca helped me get through the US naturalization process with patience and diligence. My case was a little more difficult than most and she kept me informed of the process and set my expectations well. I moved during the process and she flew up to help me in another state - and it cost less than... I had researched on my own! The fee she charged was very fair for the work she ended up doing on my case. She came with me and prepped me well. I would recommend Rebecca if you are looking for assistance with naturalization/immigration - she is kind, patient and works hard to make sure every possibility is foreseen and can be handled. I am now a US Citizen and I thank Rebecca whole-heartedly! I'm hiring her again to handle my mother!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
