"For me, the desire to file a green card application became simultaneously and urgently a complex task accompanied by plenty of changes. Upon the recommendation of my Boston leading business lawyer, I turned to Ms. Kornfeld, Esq.

I would have expected her comprehensive knowledge and strategic wisdom. I would have expected a diligent handling of my matters to the extent that I would support the process. What I neither expected, nor can adequately acknowledge, is the dedication and commitment Ms. Kornfeld put to my case.

Ms. Kornfeld built the case. She took full responsibility. She built the product. She drove the data and documentation process. She filed my case within 3 months. Her responses to whichever question and concern would literally always come within hours, even to Europe and Japan.

As a technology entrepreneur I strive to work with the best possible professional I can access. I am convinced that Ms. Kornfeld is one of these rare professional treasures."

— Thomas J. Schwalbe, Founder CPC, Inc.

"After I received and read the copy of the submitted I-140 application I was instantly reminded why I hired you. Not only that you are one of the best immigration lawyers out there but also you personally engage in the most minute details of the process. I decided to file I-140 before the company went trough a successful financing round when things were not looking that good or stable from the outside. Your (I-140) arguments in favor of the ability to pay were a superb job. At the time I tried to play the devil's advocate but I was not able to figure out any cracks that would allow me to  attack the arguments, so I said: let's see what the USCIS thinks. Well they seem to recognize a well-written and documented application! From the time I hired you to the I-485 approval it took nine months! Nine months for (PERM, I-140 and I485) preparation, filling and approval. I understood the advice to have realistic expectations but when this news hit this morning I needed to sit down!

This short "thank you" note cannot fully express your commitment, dedication or my satisfaction to your services; I would probably need to write a few pages for that! Thank you and congratulations!

"Monique the Unique!!

She is A+, affable, affordable, accessible and above all admirable. Monique is very personable and individualizes her clients. To her the client is a real person and not just a case she is working on. She is truthful, genuine and always a phone call away.

I am a practicing surgeon in Massachusetts and have been in USA for the last 14 years. I have experienced multiple interactions with many attorneys for my immigration issues. I have not come across an immigration attorney who can be reached within a day, remembers you, and cares for you, until I met Ms. Monique Kornfeld. She has all the qualities that an attorney should possess, but you rarely come across.

I recommend Ms.Kornfeld with the utmost of confidence and without reservations."

" Ms. Monique Kornfeld handled my application for a green card. Her service far exceeded my expectations. As I am totally clueless to all the details and steps that pertain to this task I was counting on her efforts to get the job done. Ms. Kornfeld is an extremely knowledgeable and effective professional, always on top of things, always responding
to my e-mails promptly, always prepared for the next step.  I acquired my green card much sooner than expected and that’s because of her relentless efforts. During our collaboration I only had to deal with her and no-one else. I must say that she gained my trust from day one and never let me down.

I am deeply grateful to Ms. Kornfeld and I would give her my highest
recommendation without any reservation. "

"We first met Attorney Monique Kornfeld in 2003 during a qualifications-based interview process, in search for an immigration lawyer to represent our interests in a green card application case. Although we had previously worked with two other immigration law firms (work visa applications), we were not convinced that their performance and experience in dealing with green card related specifics was adequate to give us confidence in likely success of such an important undertaking.

It goes without saying - we wanted the best representation possible. After considering ten law firms and personally interviewing five, we selected Monique Kornfeld's law office. This is a decision we are extremely happy with. Monique's professional expertise is outstanding and her approach to cases is tailored to best accommodate the needs of each specific situation. She exhaustively explained the advantages and shortcomings of every legal course of action possible. Working closely with us, she developed a strategy that was both prudent and effective. As the case progressed, she always made herself available to answer any concerns and questions we experienced. This helped us gain confidence and a sense of security in a situation that was anything but certain.

We have already recommended Attorney Monique Kornfeld to our friends and acquaintances and will continue to do so in the future."

"Immigration is a very personal journey for an applicant. Small technical issues can lead to huge consequences, procedures change midway without notice and often it is hard to know what to ask, or even who to ask. It can be  emotionally draining because a fear of the unknown pervades.

Monique Kornfeld helped me get the green card. I can readily say that:

1)       She responded to my inquiries promptly. Whether they were simple technicalities or involved issues, responses came quickly (within a day).

2)       She responded personally: I dealt with her and no one else.

3)       She was thorough: Whether it was the filing or subsequent issues, her work was thorough. She was on top of the procedures so that I was never lost.

There is, however, something more that sets her apart. Monique  empathized with my journey. She helped me retain faith in the system through all my cynicism, calmed my fears with optimism for the outcome. She did all this, while being legally prudent, prompt, and engaging. That is a somewhat rare combination of qualities, I feel, and therefore highly recommend her.
