Kathryn was the attorney I chose for a spouse petition for my husband's legal status. She is very thorough and knowledgeable in immigration. She was successful in this case and I will be using her again for the citizenship process in three years. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a capable and trustworthy lawyer.

Rarely a situation as sensitive as an immigration process is met with so much dedication and ethics as Katie does. She strives to provide as much focus and time as possible to the most minute detail, that being written, scheduling, explaining, presenting, comforting, reassuring, discussing, delegating, preparing, submitting, tracking etc. and still following up continously with each of these tasks. You will not find anywhere else her level of honesty and determination to provide the service she knows are realistic in a the most respectful and humble manner. When you meet Katie and spend weeks, months, years looking at her pristine work; you feel as a family member is looking out for you. If Katie tells you results will come, you can trust they will. I have nothing but the most gratifying experience for the nearly 10 years of a highly professional service and multiple recommendations to family and friends. Simply the best at she does, meeting expectations and above every time in English and Perfect Spanish.

Katie treated my family with respect during our visa process. She answered our questions and listened to what we had to say. She also worked around our schedule and was very helpful in making sure that the process fit into our schedules. Katie is much more approachable than other attorneys and was always available for us. She also made helpful payment arrangements for us to make the whole thing more manageable.

Katie helped a family member with green card issues; we consulted with her together because he was not in the US. His process was delayed for a long time. She was very helpful - she listened to everything we had to say; including our frustrations. She was genuinely nice, and provided a lot of details up front, and was frank about the situation. She went over process; the steps...etc. She helped us to get the process back to the way it was supposed to be. She gave us her time without ever making us feel like we were taking too much of her time. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

I strongly recommend my attorney, Katie. She is a highly compassionate and capable attorney. She was able to provide me with detailed advice on the potential risks and all options I had regarding my immigration status. I am extremely grateful for her honest evaluation of my case. She was thorough and detailed and provided me with invaluable recommendations. She always listened carefully to my concerns; trying to get the full picture and not to miss any details in order to provide constructive solutions. All these factors characterize her as highly professional who works for the best interest of her clients. Every time we spoke or met I felt at ease that my situation was genuinely important to her.

Katie has represented me for the past six years in a very complicated case. Throughout this time she has earned my trust and respect. Her vast knowledge of immigration laws and procedures make her an asset to anyone with an immigration issue. She has the ability to think “outside of the box” in order to resolve the unthinkable. As a client, you will find that she is honest, passionate about the cases she accepts, meticulous and is always prepared. Every time we are in court I notice that she appears to be very well-respected by everyone in the court room. Katie is heavily involved in community service, especially in promoting immigrant rights and education. Her dedication to her work and community that she serves always goes above and beyond!
