Testimonials

After a few attempts to find a competent immigration attorney to work with my asylum claim, Kara Lavy was the only one that scored really high. She throughly guided me ever since the beginning during the consultation, where she diligently explained me the steps to take based on my unique claim. Once she took over my case, she managed it with great ownership and efficiency as well as keeping great communication with me all throughout the process up to my interview at the asylum office. The outcome was absolutely positive, therefore is really hard to describe my absolute satisfaction with Lavy Law, and if I can give more than a 5-star review, I absolutely would without a doubt. Thanks a ton, Kara!

I contacted Lavy Law to help my wife from Mexico obtain her green card. We wanted an attorney who could speak Spanish and help us navigate the process in both languages, if necessary. There was only one issue in our case that came up with regards to my domicile, as I was living in Mexico for a substantial period of time. But, Mrs. Lavy helped us to respond to the request for evidence in a satisfactory way so that it was no longer an issue. Also, we had to wait a very long time for the National Visa Center to give us an interview date, but Mrs. Lavy also helped us by making an expedited service request which was granted. According to my wife, the interview went really well, she felt well prepared, and she was informed on the spot of her visa being granted. Now, we are excited to be able to start our new lives together in the U.S.

I hired Lavy Law to help me terminate my federal probation. I was eager to be able to travel outside of the U.S. and probation severely restricted my ability to travel freely. I told Mrs. Lavy I wanted to file the motion as quickly as possible, and she responded in kind - by filing it as soon as possible. Fortunately, our motion was so strong that the Judge granted it without a hearing, despite outstanding restitution payments.

​I hired Lavy Law to assist me with my criminal case in federal district court. I was accused of assault of a minor and have no criminal background. I was very nervous because I had never been prosecuted for a crime before and was concerned this charge could affect my employment and my time with family. Mrs. Lavy helped guide me and my wife through each step in the process and understand the risks associated with trial and taking a plea. In the end, I was able to the make the best decision for my case and avoid any time in jail or home detention.

I hired Lavy Law two times- first, to help me obtain an immigration safe disposition with my criminal case in Alameda Superior Court. As an immigrant from Mexico who was in the United States for my PhD, I did not want a conviction that would prevent me from staying or returning to the United States. This was a very emotional time for me as I had never been charged with a crime before. Fortunately, Mrs. Lavy helped guide me through each step in the process and succeeded in reducing my felony drug offense to a misdemeanor non-drug offense to avoid any immigration consequences.

The second time I hired Lavy Law was to expunge or clean my criminal record so that I could feel safe to return to the U.S. and start doing business there. Mrs. Lavy helped me prove to the court that I was reformed and worthy of having my probation terminated early and my case dismissed. In fact, her motion was granted and now I can move forward with my career.

Dear Ms. Lavy:

I am very pleased that I contacted you, and I simply could not have been more pleased with the process and outcome. I am more than delighted in how you were instrumental in bringing my lingering visa issue to a resolution most beneficial to me. Thank you for all your help and highly professional work, and especially for being so trustworthy. Being a foreigner, and outside the US, I was totally dependent on you to deal with my pending issue at the Berkeley Court and American Consulate in Brazil. The fact that you can understand Spanish and Portuguese was also helpful. Besides, yours was a reasonable and honest price, even though I had to completely trust your word on how many hours you were spending on my case.

You not only did not disappoint me, but did the whole work with a comforting touch, always quickly and friendly responding to all my calls and questions.

If you ever want to use me as a source of recommendation, please know I would give you the highest praise. I have no reservations in providing my highest recommendation of you and your outstanding firm to anyone with a visa or criminal issue. Thank you very much for a job well done and with such successful results.

My experience with Lavy Law was extremely positive. After finding them through a Google search and reaching out to them, Kara Lavy responded soon after, assessed my case and she immediately came up with a collaborative strategy. Ms. Lavy was in close contact while preparing to present our case. The motions she filed on my behalf couldn't have been more thorough while leveraging her relationships with local DA and justice contacts to ensure a smooth process in the courtroom. All motions were granted in my favor, and I offer the highest recommendation to anyone looking for professional, responsive, dedicated and experienced attorney services.
