Over the years I have worked with numerous attorneys in order to procure visas for cast and crew members to work on the films that was producing. Debbi was by far the most diligent, knowledgeable, and persistent attorney that have worked with in this regard. While most attorneys seem content to do as little as possible and produce generic applications, Debbi leaves no stone unturned to make sure that the application is as strong as possible. Given the pressures of making a film and the anxiety provoking nature of needing a visa in order to bring in essential cast and crew to work on the production, Debbi’s hard work and insight gave me confidence that we would get the visas we needed.

Debbi is a winner - a highly intelligent and effective lawyer who is truly passionate about her clients. She was successful in getting my E2 investor’s visa approved for my startup business, which requires real expertise. Debbi is a true professional, knows the law and stays abreast of the latest developments in an ever-evolving and often puzzling area of immigration law. I would recommend Debbi without hesitation for even the most complex cases. Having established some roots in the US, but on H1B status, I lost my job and the options seemed limited to getting another job immediately or packing my bags and getting on the plane. In a panic, I called several lawyers, most brought bad news and had little empathy for my state; few seemed to care and were generally dismissive. I then had the good fortune to be referred to Debbi Klopman. Debbi agreed to meet with me the same day and listened with patience and care, calming me down and giving me hope! She patiently assessed my situation over a couple of hours and quickly developed a strategy for success. Over several months Debbi guided me through the E2 visa process, which however painful, resulted in a winning outcome. Debbi did such a good job with my case, and was so fastidious with the details, and wise with the positioning that “we” were immediately approved. It really was a team effort from start to finish. In fact, Debbi often drove me to succeed at my business in order to better bolster our case. The E2 process is very complex undertaking with strict requirements, and in many respects it can be so frustrating that giving up seems the only rational decision. Debbi helped me stay the course through some rocky patches and delivered in the end. Throughout the process Debbi was understanding, always willing to bear the brunt of my very vocal frustrations and talk me off the ledge to get things done. Debbi knows the law, is really smart and was very clever in shaping a case. Most of all, Debbi really cares about her clients and is a genuinely nice person.

I am an independent film producer who hired Debbi to assist us with a last minute visa request after had hiring a UK-based actor for the lead role in a feature film. Debbi instantly proved herself to be a tireless and devoted champion of our cause, remaining in constant contact throughout the course of the project and providing near-instantaneous answers to questions regardless of the time of day. Her level of experience with immigration work is clearly beyond reproach, and I never once felt that I was not in the best hands. She is a dutiful and persistent person, and all her efforts more than paid off: our actor's visa was swiftly approved, and I credit this entirely to Debbi's extraordinary understanding of how to succeed in the immigration process. I fully intend to hire her again the next time I need help with an employee visa, and she would be the first person I would recommend to anyone in a similar situation.

Debbi Klopman is a top notch lawyer. 100%. I used her services recently to help my family with naturalization matter. The process was very complex, involving multiple family members, going back in time, requiring documentation and evidence of events we rarely keep strict track on,...etc,..etc. She navigated the procedure with extreme professionalism and practicality. Within few weeks she was able to bring things down to the so desired positive outcome. Debbi has demonstrated deep knowledge of the law, communicating to institutions in different countries, filing the right applications,..and all this in environment of a pandemic!! Kudos to Ms. Klopman and her Immigration firm!!

Applying for a visa is a stressful process. If you're lucky, you get a lawyer who walks you through each step, supports you as you build you case, and makes things easier. If you're extremely fortunate, like me, you get a lawyer like Debbi who does all that, and goes beyond what's required- to be present for you, to answer all your questions within hours, to understand how you work, and to work with you to present a compelling case for why you deserve to be given a visa to work in the US. With Debbi's help, I applied for, and was approved an O1-B visa as a Game Designer, a less common field of work. As soon as Debbi took on my case, she started working diligently. Even though she wasn't familiar with the field of games, she spent long hours researching the field of games and the significance of my work. I was very surprised when within a week or so, she was already using terminologies of my field! She pushed me to get her all the materials, and we built a strong case that we were both very happy with. I feel that the greatest gift she gave me wasn't helping get my visa approved, it was helping me see my own true worth. Thank you for everything, Debbi!

I highly recommend Debbi to any international artist seeking to go through the intimidating visa application process. I worked with Debbi this year and now successfully have my O1b visa, all thanks to her. She is a thorough professional who provides her expertise generously and unbiasedly, while holding space for the mental and emotional strains the process can have. She is a true partner through this journey; one I could reach out to any time of day, with any sort of question and I knew she would have my back. Debbi is a fighter- her astute knowledge and experience guided my case in the best way possible and allowed us to streamline our efforts. I'm grateful to have worked with her and look forward to continue doing so. Thank you Debbi!

Debbi has been able to help me out with my O-1 visa case like no other lawyer has through her intelligence, knowledge, and creative thinking. As a Creative Director and O-1 visa holder of over 8 years, it was a shock when my latest O-1 visa was refused at a European consulate interview back in fall 2020, with the travel ban cited as the reason (which they are not allowed to do). The subsequent 221g that I was issued narrowed the course of action I was allowed to take. The lawyers I had been using for 8 years prior were giving me bad advice, and this is when I turned to Debbi, who I had found through a very informative Forbes article where she had been quoted. She responded to me immediately, and through her intelligent thinking and creativity she advised that I sign up to a case which is taking legal action against the US government against situations such as the one I found myself in, something I wasn't even aware of that could have be an option for me, and had not been recommended to me by anyone else. As it turns out this was the correct course of action to take, and I can't thank Debbi enough!

Debbie understood who I am as an artist from the very beginning of the process. She shared with me a clear strategy on how to present my case and that have me the confidence needed to move forward . She was always available and present. I highly recommend her!

Debbi is a dream to work with - I've worked with many lawyers on my various visa cases and Debbi is by far the best. I had a difficult case and she made my dream possible in a very uncertain time in the US. Debbi takes not only tackling the case seriously, but she also invests so much time understanding the people behind the case. She worked tirelessly on my case but also supported me through the process, explaining everything, understanding my concerns and providing me an honest and invaluable insight to the reality of my case. I couldn't have asked for a better partner to work. There is no-one I would recommend more. It's a privilege to work with Debbi.

I decided to apply to remove my green card conditional status by myself and received an RFE. This led me to contact Debbi to schedule an initial consultation during which she was very knowledgeable and friendly. I decided to hire her to help me with my case and she was extremely responsive and helpful throughout the whole process. She was able to assemble my answer to the RFE in a couple of weeks and my Green Card was approved right after that! Thank you Debbi!!
