Professionalism personified - the absolute best!

Ioana Hyde is an outstanding attorney. From our very first consultation, she provided detailed, personalised advice drawn from her many years of experience in UK-to-US immigration. She guided us flawlessly through our DCF CR1 visa application, navigating a tight timeline with precision and efficiency.... She is the epitome of professionalism - always meticulous, accurate, and incredibly prompt in her communications. Beyond that, she is warm, kind, and an absolute pleasure to work with. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found her. She turned a stressful and complicated process into something straightforward and easy. Her knowledge is exceptional, and she approaches every step of the application with the utmost diligence. We truly cannot thank her enough for making our dream a reality. Her team is equally excellent - Liane handled the administrative and payment side of things with warmth and efficiency, making the entire experience seamless. If you are immigrating from the UK to the US, I cannot recommend Attorney Hyde highly enough - she is, quite simply, the best!

The absolute best immigration lawyer

Working with Ioana was such a pleasant experience, I almost wish we could go through the whole process with her again. She is extremely organized and detail-oriented, very responsive, knowledgeable about the process and our specific situation and immigration needs, and kept us calm and reassured when... we got stressed and panicky. I cannot recommend AILO enough. Thank you so much, Ioana!

Exceptional Immigration Lawyer: Expert Guidance and Genuine Care

We had the privilege of working with Ioana and her team recently on our green card process. Ioana provided expert guidance and genuine care throughout the process and helped us navigate the complexities of immigration law. Her professionalism, organization, and tireless efforts resulted in a successf...ul outcome. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of an outstanding immigration lawyer.

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!

Highly Recommend

I had previously hired a lawyer a year or so back and had a nightmare with chasing them up constantly. After that experience I really wasn't looking forward to hiring another lawyer. However this experience was totally different. Ioana is an amazing lawyer who kept on top of our case at all times. Sh...e made the whole process so easy to understand and follow - it almost felt like we weren't even working on a case as it was such a breeze! Ioana was great at responding quickly to any questions which we had throughout the process and even responded on her days off at points (which is definitely going above and beyond). We felt she really did care about us and our case. Ioana is very talented at her job and I would highly recommend her!

"I endorse this lawyer. Ioana and I practiced together for several years with the Washington State Attorney General's Office. Ioana impressed me with her good judgment, keen insights, and passionate advocacy. I was sorry when Ioana moved to England to obtain her LLM degree. She is an asset to her employer/clients."

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.
