Alison & her team make things looks easy and it became easy because they are on top of it. I'm so grateful for their help. If I knew this was so easy and efficient I would have done it a long time ago. She is also very knowledgeable about Immigration Laws. Thank You Alison & Team!

After living abroad for many years, it became time to move back to the US as soon as possible and get immigrant visas my non-citizen wife and child to take care of aging parents. Responses from law firms recommended online for the immigration process varied from low responsiveness, to poor clarifications, to more focused on a high-budget customer group. Alison and Yew Immigration Law Group stood out as the one, highly recommended team who answered immigration questions clearly; set realistic expectations on timing and process; laid out what would be required of us and what we could do ourselves; provided clarifications of steps, goals and costs, and importantly, was generous with smart perspective. Her input, from the first call, shed light on an understandable green card application process.
After choosing to start the process myself, I realized that the substantial work of assembling the required documents, history, records, translations etc. was on us either way, but the skill of navigating the process was only going to be effectively done through good legal support. With Alison and team working on our case, the process picked up speed, pushed through stalls, and considerately addressed outside-US adoptions. Guidance was clear and thoughtful, and support was readily available through all steps. As a result, we received permanent residence feeling support and excitement but little stress, both important for a family move. I would gladly work with Alison and Yew Immigration Law Group again.

Alison and her team are very professional, capable, efficient, and helpful. I knew her about five years ago by one friend when another lawyer failed my L1 case. Alison successfully helped me get my L1 visa and the renewal one year later. Recently, one of her team member, Michael also helped my wife, nearly 60, successfully get her status from B1 to F1 under very tough situation.
Highly recommend!

I highly recommend Alison and her legal team. They have provided me with world-class legal support on two immigration-related issues. I cannot express my gratitude enough for Alison and team for the professional help they provided to me and my family.

I don't usually write reviews, but the support I had received from the firm was exceptional. My case was regarding change of status to Permanent Resident. I referred to them by a friend in late 2020 during peak COVID, with all the uncertainties around us. We got our petition approved and could not be happier :)
Alison and her team were extremely helpful during the process.
1) Responsive: I received timely response to all my queries and Alison took time to explain certain nuances even though she did not need to
2) Knowledgeable: She and the team clearly have grasp on the law and how it evolves. For example, I received a particular RFE which would have required me to gather lot of documents - putting additional stress. Alison informed me of a changing law and that we should wait. We followed her advice and next week received a letter informing not to respond to RFE.
3) Organized & detailed: I liked that everything was organized on their online folders etc. They also caught few errors as I was providing my info.
Overall, I highly recommend her and the team.

'Efficiency' indeed is the exact word that characterizes Alison YEW of YEW IMMIGRATION LAW GROUP, a P.C. - I approached her firm in order to obtain a Green Card. First, very clearly the whole procedure was explained to me, all documents were soon gathered, verified and submitted. It was then just a question of 'waiting' during which, at regular intervals, based on the various stages of the USCIS requirements, Alison kept in touch ... to finally announce to me that my 'so desired' Green Card was on its way to my home. It is amazing how a First Class Immigration Lawyer can simply transform what could be a 'paperwork nightmare' into a 'total peace of mind accomplishment'.
Thank you so much Alison!

I came to Alison and Yew Immigration after receiving a request for evidence following my naturalization interview. This was the third attorney I had contacted for help with my case, and none of them were able to give me advice about my specific situation. Alison immediately found a route we could take and was extremely helpful and responsive as we built the case. I was ultimately successful in getting citizenship and I owe it all to them!! Highly recommend working with them as they truly care and will guide you through what can be a very stressful process.

I write this review to attorney Yew and her team, including Michael and Veronica, for their professionalism and good law service that they provide. Attorney Yew helped me to response to a change of status case of form I-539 during Covid time when all the timeline and deadline were messed up. My case was approved in 7 days, super fast compared to most cases. She helped me for my non-immigration visa case with USCIS, in which most law offices did not take in the case. I would highly recommended attorney Yew.

I needed to consult with an immigration attorney to fight my deportation order. After meeting with Allison Yew, I know my case is in good hands. Allison is very knowledgeable about immigration and criminal law. She is looking for all the possible way she can help me. I had many attorney for my case before. Allison is the kindest and smartest one of them all. If you are looking for someone to fight for your immigration right. I highly recommend having Allison as your attorney.

Alison is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and communicative. Under the current administration, immigration VISA is often subject to excessive scrutiny, and every petition has become an uphill battle. I have received two RFEs that are difficult in different ways, and Alison helped me get approved in both cases. She has an in-depth understanding of not only how immigration laws and regulations work but also the inner-workings of USCIS. Alison has a calm personality and always responds to my questions quickly, making difficult moments a lot less stressful. I can not thank her enough and I can not recommend her highly enough. FIVE STARS!

I cannot recommend Alison Yew’s talent and expertise highly enough. She is simply one of the very best lawyers you could ever be fortunate enough to have chosen, and you can wholeheartedly feel assured that once you have chosen Alison as your attorney, you will feel 100% confident that she will move heaven and earth to see your case through with no stone left unturned. Her diligence, perseverance, and detailed knowledge about my case was stellar and impressed me over and over, time and time again. I know of no other person I would have entrusted to have helped me through the extremely stressful and difficult time my legal case presented to me.
Although my situation was outside of her normal focus, which is immigration, and had to do with an unlawful rental situation I was involved with as a plaintiff, she heroically offered to take my case on a contingency basis, allowing me to pursue a legal course of remediation I otherwise would not have had the means to pursue. She came to me as the guardian angel she in fact IS, offering to help me, and she saw me through to the very end. I can never thank Alison enough.
Again, her knowledge and persistence, her invaluable assertiveness, timeliness, and commitment to my case were instrumental in achieving an optimal outcome. Her personal support throughout the ordeal was as equally appreciated. She is not only an expert litigator, she is also one of the very nicest and most compassionate people you could ever know, and her integrity and faithfulness to my cause were unceasing. She repeatedly gave me renewed hope whenever I started feeling frightened or defeated, and I not only felt that I had an exemplary lawyer supporting me, I also felt that I had a real and trusted friend who cared deeply and sincerely about my welfare. Someone like Alison, who can see us in our most vulnerable and fragile states and continue to provide encouragement all along the way, is alone worth her weight in gold. Legal issues are frequently not merely technical; they often carry some deep and painful corresponding emotions. Alison was the cure for both, a reliable and trusted captain steering us both capably through the dark and stormy legal waters.
I would recommend this woman to anyone and everyone. She is a shining star, and will most likely be your lucky star.

Alison accepted my citizenship case after I had submitted the form 400. My case was kind of tricky because I had 2 long stays out of the US, and I was pretty much worried that my case got rejected. Meeting with Alison was kind of relief for me.
She was by my side for all the journey I had with her great ideas. she helped me to put together some documentation and was present in my interview session.
I recommend Alison if you have an immigration case and need a good support!
