I have known Deborah since 2012. Initially, she took care of our ( me and my wife’s) E2 visa to come to the US. E2 is not an easy, straightforward process, but we got approved on the spot mainly because of the way she put our case together. It was very thorough, and there was no room for second-guessing for the interviewing officer. Later in the US and with her assistance, we extended our E2 for a couple of times, and there were no issues whatsoever. More recently, she helped us with our adjustment of status from E2 to GREEN CARD. She helped us with filing the labor certificate, i40, and i485 for both my wife and me. Today we got approved for our employment-based green card. She has been helping us for more than 7 years, and it has always been bull’s-eye. She is a great adviser, and she knows the immigration law very well. She is calm, resourceful and very experienced in her job. She also is very honest and gives you the most frank advice on your case (even if you do not wanna hear it), and her judgment is impeccable on the chances you got on a case. She is not in this for the money, unlike many other attornies. In this day and age, a reliable immigration attorney is the best resource you can have on your side, and Deborah is for sure that person

Me and my family came from Sweden to U.S. it was not easy to find a good lawyer to have a good reputation, trust them with money and take care of your case in the shortest period. Ms. Townsend had more than all of them. Her voice calms you down. We hired her right a way. We are still in touch with Ms. Townsend and I would never hire any attorney until speak with her to get referrals. I wish there was more than 5 stars in the review because she deserves 10. Who ever know me, they know Ms. Townsend. We don’t have many like her and is sad.

Deborah worked with my case for years. It included H1B, PERM and EB immigrant category. She also represented the company I work for. She handled the process with high level of professionalism. She was prompt when communicating with me and the company. She has the experience and knowledge in immigration that resulted to my case's successful outcome.

Since the first time I contacted Ms. Townsend several years ago she showed high level of knowledge, understanding of my needs and professionalism. From filing documents for H1B visa, to assisting my employer and myself with obtaining U.S. Permanent Resident status, Ms. Townsend was here every step and explaining the process, informing of the application status. When I had a question, and if I had to leave a voice mail or send an email, calls would be returned fast, emails would always address every detail I needed to know. I highly recommend Ms. Townsend, as she is an attorney you want to have on your side.

I consulted with many immigration lawyers to determine who would be best suited for my E2 Investor's visa application to the US. I found Deborah's name during an internet search and her credentials were impressive. After an initial consultation I realized that she was the lawyer I was looking for. She had the patience to listen to ALL of my questions and answer them. She also used amazing clarity in her responses (a skill that many other lawyers lacked). Even though I was based in another country, it was easy to communicate with Deborah and she always responded in a timely fashion to all requests and questions. She was the ONLY lawyer that gave me a clear list of events and tasks that had to be completed in a specific order to facilitate the E2 visa application. Deborah assisted every step of the way and delivered on EVERYTHING that she agreed to do. She made a complex process easy and made the whole thing stress free. The best decision I made was to hire Deborah. I would (and have) recommended her to colleagues and friends. When it comes to immigration law, you need look no further!

Deborah is a fine professional. She actively supported my wife and I during our visa application process. She was always available and kind and gave us precise and efficient advice coming from a long experience of immigration procedures. We got our visa in less than 3 months owing to her continuous help. A job well done.

Ms Townsend is a very highly professional attorney helping me and my family for H1B , PERM , and finally it ends up by Green Cards . she is smart enough to handle my case from day one with a very good way , I feel welcome from day one and even before we did the agreement I feel she is the most convenient immigration attorney for me between those I had meeting with them , as she has a very good knowledge & experience & clear & searching for the best solutions and I could say Ms Townsend know exactly what she is doing , she take my case and go through a very hard path to get the green card but she did it within a very good time frame almost 2 years . she is always updating me from time to time with the legal options to do and choose the best to go . the best lawyer I have ever met & with lovely character , thank you Deborah to help me and my family .

Mrs. Townsend successfully guided me through the complicated path from getting visas to eventually the green card with a time span of many years. She knows everything about the process, finds the best way to achieve the goal, and gives us good legal advice on matters that are related to my immigration. She and her office staff executed every case perfectly, in the meantime she showed that she cares and that she is my lawyer.

I was shopping for a good lawyer (which is hard to find these days), who would return my calls and emails in a timely manner, and actively work our case. I found Deborah through Avvo. She promptly returned my call, was patient with us and is now working for us to get my wife's Green Card. My wife is from Mexico and I am from the US. I highly recommend Deborah for immigration work.
