Great service and expertise

My husband and I were very pleased with Ms Hyde's knowledge, expertise and professional manner in processing our visa. She is patient, friendly, hardworking and a clear communicator. She is reliable and timely in her email responses and extremely organized. Ms Hyde guided us smoothly through the visa... process with ease and with a positive end result. We highly recommend Ms Hyde for all your visa needs. You will not be disappointed!

A Bank of Knowledge

Ioana is everything my wife and I could have wanted during our visa process. When we contacted AILO and were put in contact with Ioana, she answered every question in detail, already had a clear understanding of what we wanted and was very open about the steps required. Even with COVID, the ever c...hanging travel bans and US immigration developments Ioana led the way and knew exactly what was needed. We cannot thank Ioana and the team at the American Immigration Law Office enough.

Delightful experience

I initially engaged with a different lawyer to work on my case, but I found that this individual was not consistent and I had to keep chasing them, even though I had expressed interest about using their services. I decided to search for a different firm/lawyer, and I came across the American Immigrat...ion Law Office. Their receptionist, Liane, was the first point of contact and she was very friendly, responsive and informative. I immediately had a good feeling about the firm after my engagement with her. When I spoke to Ioana for my initial consultation, she was also helpful and knew what she was talking about. I decided to hire Ioana to take on my case with regards to my student visa. She was friendly, patient and kind, and always explained things to me in detail, keeping me up to date with everything that was going on. I felt rest assured and confident that she was doing her best to get the best possible outcome for me. When I had queries, she would answer promptly and was also realistic with me about the possible outcomes, never over promising and keeping me aware of the different scenarios that could arise. I managed to get my visa and felt prepared on the day about what could/would happen, and I can confidently say that I would not hesitate to use Ioana's services again. I don't really write reviews, but felt it necessary to write one as my experience was very positive and I have come away with a smile on my face, and so I would recommend her firm in a heartbeat. It was overall a delightful experience, and I am happy that I came across the firm.

Stress Free Process With Ioana

Ioana was brilliant to work with. Being in an international relationship, my husband and i have worked with several different firms through our journey and we can easily say that by far Ioana at American Immigration Law was the best and most reasonably priced. Any questions were answered thoroughly ...and promptly, she was always one step ahead of us so that we were never waiting on anything from her end in order to progress. Even the initial consultation was above expectations and very informative. If we ever need to seek help again regarding immigration issues we will absolutely be contacting her again. Thank you Ioana for making what could’ve been a very stressful situation straightforward and much easier.

A tedious process made incredibly easy

We hired Ms. Hyde for a spousal visa for myself. She has been, from the very beginning a pleasure to work with: We found Ms Hyde being extremely knowledgeable, calm and genuinely caring for my case. The whole process can be tedious but Ms Hyde made sure everything was explained and broken down in...to details and baby steps. At every question and (many) issues that arose along the process, Ms Hyde replied promptly and effectively, and nothing seemed to be any trouble. When the COVID 19 stuck Ms Hyde supported us in an outstanding way. We will be forever thankful for the support given, and I would recommend this firm to anyone seeking assistance for US immigration matters. Thank you again for the outstanding work!

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.
