US Citizen requesting an immigrant visa for our adopted daughter

Attorney Stefanie Parchment represented me in our Immigration Family Petition case as US Citizen requesting an immigrant visa for our adopted daughter, who was residing outside the US. Mrs Stephanie Parchment is a very knowledgeable, bilingual and caring attorney, always available on the phone or ...email, responding very promptly to our queries, with affordable costs. Our case involved a very long time of continuous contacts with the different US governmental agencies and Consulate, filling forms, affidavits, and providing a great deal of documents, which ultimately lead to successfully obtaining a Resident Visa for my daughter. We are very grateful to Mrs Parchment. We really felt that she had our best interests at heart.

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.

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.
