Recommend Ms. Rondon 100%

My case was approved! And it all was thanks to Ms. Rondon. I was on a time crunch while applying for a green card and Ms. Rondon made me feel at ease while preparing the application. She was always in contact with me throughout the process. Everytime I recieved a new notice from USCIS, she would emai...l me about it and send reminders in case I had an appointment to go to. Any question that I had during the process, she would promptly clarify it for me. She met with me prior to the interview to prepare me for it, which really helped. She was also with me at the time of the interview. Ms. Rondon is an excellent lawyer. She very knowldgeable and thorough with her work.

Amicus Curiae Beautifully done and well written by Ms. Rondon

Ms. Rondon took the case of a civil rights concerning in US Federal 9th Circuit court. She wrote an amazing, well written and articulate Amicus Curiae. The Amicus helps shed the light on Custody battles for Arab Americans and the racism they face. She done the research and put the facts in a 39 pa...ge brief. Very dependable and professional. I would like to thank her from the bottom of my heart as my children would have gone to India if she was not involved. I appreciated her and her time and experience. Thank you so much.

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.
