I am extremely proud of the quality of legal representation my husband and I received on immigration matters. Mary is very knowledgeable, thorough, a great communicatior, and truly represents the best interests of her clients. If she takes your case, you are definitely in good hands.
With a very complicated case i visited multiple law firms to help me with my situation. I came across Mary Chicorelli from Equal Access Legal Services. A very compassionate, knowledgeable and helpful professional. She handled everything wonderfully and made the whole process a lot less painful then it could have been. I really appreciate her efforts and hard work. She got me the only result i wanted to hear from the Judge. Thank you Mary!!!
I wanted to mention how very pleased I am with the professionalism and integrity with which Ms Mary Frances Chicorelli has handled our case (acquiring my mother a green card in just 4 months). After doing a lot of research on all sorts of different immigration lawyers in the tri-state area, I called the USCIS for help and guidance to find a lawyer for mom’s case. The USCIS emailed me a list of lawyers to consider, highly recommended by them. The first thing I did was call all the lawyers listed in NY, NJ and to my disappointment none of them responded or called back. It was Friday afternoon and I decided to make this last and final call to this lawyer in Philadelphia named Mary Frances Chicorelli, She picked up right away and was very enthusiastic in answering all my questions. Now I had done my research and knew exactly what I was looking for and asked her every question that I had a doubt about and she answered brilliantly and also shared some more facts that I wasn’t aware of. She knew this subject like the back of her hands. I was literally blown away with her knowledge and wonderful demeanor. That day I made a decision without a blink of an eye to go with Mary. That was the best decision I made. Not once did she stress or complicate things. She made it absolutely easy. Right from the "get go", she responded with the care, understanding and encouragement that folks like us are sensitive to, specially in matters of dealing with immigration and the Government. I was specially encouraged by her, her demeanor and her unwavering dedication to do whatever was required in an effort to get the outcome we were hoping for. At all times I found her responsive and very organized in the structured plan, the adhering to protocol and the execution of the request. Amazingly, she got us a result in about 4 months from when initiated, success and authorized legal status for my elderly mother, whom I have undertaken to support in this phase of her life. I cannot thank Ms Mary Frances Chicorelli enough, am so pleased with the manner in which she transacted this request, and for the minimal charges she required for the entire process. I will not hesitate to recommend her to all parties that need legal aid in any of the areas she specializes in. I will remain eternally grateful,
I reached out for Mary's help in August 2016 due to harassment by a previous landlord who was trying to bully me into signing a release of liability. I had previously consulted with four different attorneys before I found Equal Access Legal Services. The first three charged more than I could afford and the last attorney I called was distracted and condescending. A friend recommended Mary and, within the first few minutes of talking to her, I knew I'd found the right advocate for me. I began the call feeling frantic and overwhelmed, but ended it feeling calm and empowered. She was kind, patient, thorough, and clearly competent. She promptly sent me a simple agreement for services, drafted a clear and comprehensive settlement agreement and continued advising me on the process through completion. What felt particularly great is how quickly the dynamic with my previous landlord shifted when I hired Mary. The same adversary who had been threatening to take me to court on false allegations immediately dropped that threat and became respectful in her communications. Mary was able to resolve the matter without litigation within a month of that first phone call. I got the full settlement amount I requested, along with a release agreement protecting me from further threats. Finally, Mary's bill was surprisingly low. She offered an affordable rate based on my income, clearly discussed everything in advance, and kept her time to a minimum. I am so grateful for how quickly and capably she resolved this massive headache in my life. I plan to hire her for any legal matter that arises in the future and to recommend everyone I know do the same.
In the 12 years I have known Mary Chicorelli she has pursued the practice of law with integrity, determination, and a superior demonstration of commitment to the success of the community in which she lives. The City of Philadelphia and it's residents who struggle with immigration issues are lucky to have her service. Having faced and overcome adversity herself has afforded her a unique perspective on the challenges that face her neighbors and peers right in the community in which she lives and now devotes herself to.
Mary is one of the most passionate, thorough attorneys I've had the pleasure of working with. Her ability to dig deep and ask the tough questions, makes her an empathetic lawyer with a heart for success and betterment of humanity. I highly recimmend Mary for legal services.
