I just did my VAWA evaluation with them! Amazing communication via email, easy set up, price was cheaper than most other places, and Emily wrote a great report! It was 2 sessions a week apart over video (no need to go anywhere in person) and then it took Emily about 3 weeks to write my report so I’d say count on at least a month or so for everything. Which is not long compared to some other places!
I was referred for evaluation by my attorney for my hardship case. My therapist is highly experienced and has a good understanding of immigration law on top of being genuine, personable and transparent. She genuinely cares about the case, I can tell that she does her work with her heart. My partner’s adjustment of status/green card was approved. I would strongly recommend this clinic for anyone who is looking for an immigration evaluation.
We had a very difficult situation- we did an evaluation with a different counselor, but we were requested for more evidence. My cousin recommends Lola so we came to see her. Lola is sincere and knowledgeable. I can see she who truly cares for her client. Her report includes a lot more details compare to the old one. She also communicates very well with my attorney, she took the time to make edits based on my attorney’s suggestions, and always keeps me informed of the procedure. We cant say enough about the Lola, because of her, we received our Green Card and now we get to spend the rest of our lives with each other. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making this possible.
