When hiring an attorney it is important to select someone knowledgeable who takes the time to explain the process. Rosa and her team guided me expertly through the immigration process from start to finish. What stood out was the attention to detail given to my case, timely responses on my queries and the submission of documents, detailed explanations and overall thorough preparation offered by Rosa. The immigration journey can be uncertain which is why I chose to be represented by Rosa Barreca. I trusted her with my life. My family is forever thankful to her and her team!

I applied and got my US citizenship with Rosa L Barreca as my lawyer. My case was not the hardest but it had difficulties. I had been sent back home once. Rosa helped me stay focused on what needed to be done and empowered me. It is very traumatic to trust a system when that system has failed you before. Rosa was not only my lawyer, she fought for my right to become an american citizen and the whole process ended up being very simple and easy. I was scared and blocked before but she helped me do it. And I am now "proud to be an american"! I highly recommend her services, she is understanding, strong and very human. And a winner!

i have dealt with several lawyers over the years. i would rate Rosa Barreca at the top. I had major complications in my immigration status due to a felony charge that was filed against me. She advised me to plead to a lesser charge (misdemeanor) & I was able to stay in this country. She is professional, courteous & informative ( speaking to me in terms that i can understand). I will continue to use her in all my dealings with immigration. She gives great advice & gets things DONE

I worked with Ms. Rosa for my case and she did an amazing job. Even though it was a difficult and time/work consuming case she put all her effort into it to give me the best result. She always kept us updated and let us know the status of the case frequently. I was blessed to be able to find her as a lawyer to take care of my case. If I need a lawyer for cases like this I will most definitely reach for her and if anyone around me needs an immigration lawyer I will recommend her to them. I am truly thankful for all her work and I greatly appreciate her effort and work for my case. Thank you Rosa!

I have worked with Ms. Barreca for immigration as well as getting other legal advice and services. She has great knowledge in immigration as well as criminal laws and most importantly she is very responsive and friendly and made me feel very secure in terms of legal issues I have experienced recently. I was very grateful that she has represented me in and out of court.
