I’m Warren live in New York. Words alone can’t express how I feel. Rootkits credit specialist did what I felt was impossible to repair. I had a $24,000 student loan from 1989 and I know I paid it off long ago with some credit card which brought down my credit score, but they took my tax return which deprived me of getting a home loan. I read several reviews about rootkits credit specialist and decided to contact them via rootkitscreditspecialist@gmail.com and texted afterwards [(760 474 3440)]. I got a reply immediately and explained my predicament. Rootkits brought back my lost joy by fixing my credit which enabled me to gain access to a home loan. Today I’m living happily with my kids. All thanks to the entire team Rootkits credit specialist. They are just the best. I solely recommend them.

From the consultation phase Elinor was very clear about how she would work with us and what we could expect and how much it would all cost. She or her team was always available and they were very responsive. She was in regular contact with updates throughout the case and I never felt like mine was just one in pile. She was understanding to life changes and always knew the best way to handle the red tape to ensure the speediest resolution. There were never any hidden costs or runaround. In cases like this you want someone you can trust and rely on and Elinor is both.

My journey to become a permanent resident and citizen has been a very stressful one but Elinor had everything out for me clearly and helped me every step of the way. She was available any time I needed her (even holidays) and always made sure I was on top of what I needed to do. She treated me like family and guided me through the whole process.Elinor was there for me in more ways than I can even imagine and I am so thankful that she could work with me. She is passionate about her cases just as she was with mine and was determined to come out of it successfully. I highly recommend her to anyone that needs immigration service and I am very happy that Elinor represented me.

I was an anxious, nervous wreck when I first started looking into the daunting and often overwhelming Asylum process. I had a friend who had just been granted asylum and I was so grateful for their recommendation. As soon as I spoke to Elinor Tesfaram for the first time I immediately felt like I was about to be in very safe hands. She reassured me about my case and really took the time to make the process I was about to undertake very clear. I hired her for my case and she worked out a payment plan for me. My case definitely came with some big challenges but nothing seemed impossible to Elinor. Her calm and professional demeanor was a gift during a very scary time in my life. I am forever grateful to Elinor and of course her team at Plenpovo Law. Needless to say, I was granted asylum and am now living my best life! Thank you Elinor... for the phone calls, the messages, the emails... for all the practice sessions and all the reassurance... for the incredible work that you do... thank you. If you are looking for someone to fight for you look no further... Plenpovo Law is run by a hero and a goddess!
