Thanks to Sarah, I got my O1 visa without needing extra projects or hackathons to ‘impress USCIS,’ as other lawyers suggested. She crafted my case so effectively that it was approved without an RFE. Sarah was incredibly supportive, providing clear, helpful explanations throughout the process. Her pricing is very reasonable, and she’s fully transparent about both her fees and USCIS’s fees. Importantly, she handles each case personally, without offloading to paralegals or assistants. I *highly* recommend Sarah's services.

After attending one of her presentations I emailed Sarah asking for advice on my case (waiver for J1 visa). We have been exchanging emails for more than five months. Sarah is a very professional lawyer as you can see it for her prompt responses and precise advices. In these few months she has been on top of the changes that have been happening in these times of COVID-19. I have followed her advices and everything has gone perfect.

Sarah is a brilliant lawyer, outstanding in her work, with a thorough knowledge of the American immigration system. Her research into each individual case is impeccable, as is her ability to draft a crystal clear petition. She was my lawyer for an O-1 petition, and it was her confidence in my case that led me to file the petition in the first place. No query goes unanswered, every point she makes is clear and sharp, and she responds to every email immediately.

I spoke with Sarah Edgecomb about my immigration situation. Even through her caseload was full, she nevertheless spent a good deal of time giving me guidance even outside of any consulting agreement. I was very impressed with her clear communication about my immigration situation. She is a very clear thinker and laid out options, risks and interconnectedness involved in various strategies extremely well. In the world of immigration law where absolutes are not always at hand and ambiguities abound, Ms. Edgecomb so very clearly explained the risks and benefits associated with various immigration pathways and answered my numerous questions very well. I learned quite a lot in our brief conversation. On top of her intelligence, geniality, and clear, methodical thinking, Ms. Edgecomb demonstrated exceptional generosity by spending so much time with me in an initial phone call. If she only were available for additional clients I would definitely seek her counsel. I highly recommend Ms. Edgecomb to anyone desiring legal counsel.

I would highly and easily recommend Sarah over any other immigration attorney. I applied for permanent residency in the toughest category - EB 1 A and I finally got my green card. My case was quite complicated and did not fit the usual template that other lawyers follow. In the beginning of the process, I honestly did not believe in myself as much as she did. I was extremely lucky to have found Sarah. Before consulting Sarah I contacted few other Attorneys and to say the least, they basically didnt see me fit in their usual template. Sarah really studied my mathematical engineering background in astounding details. This is something I didn't really expect from any attorney and I found it very impressive. The petition drafted by Sarah was immaculate, extremely thorough and ingeniously highlighted my abilities towards qualifications needed for EB-1A. I had many many questions throughout the long process. Sarah diligently replied to each one of them with exceptional details. She is a true expert in her area and knows the process in and out. She always provided me with all possible answers to my questions and then always provided her professional advice on so many issues that came to my mind. She is highly experienced, very talented, extremely thoughtful and very caring. Whenever I had a question, Sarah would answer my questions promptly so that I could move onto other aspects of my application rather than waiting for answers. She really went extra miles in being able to truly help me through this, at times, nerve wrecking and difficult process. If you have been thinking of applying in the EB-1A category or one of those national interest waivers categories you are probably aware that the process became much more difficult in terms of approval by USCIS in 2017-2018. It is during this period she filed my petition and helped me get my permanent residency. In all, I found Sarah to be very intelligent and extremely thorough. If you truly follow her guidance and if she believes you have a good chance, there is no reason you would not succeed.

I am an experienced attorney, and when I have run into particularly complex problems over the years that involve immigration law I go to Sarah for a consultation. She has not only an encyclopedic understanding of immigration law, but is extremely knowledgeable about current (and potentially future changes) in the field. I recommend her to anyone who asks me for help with any kind of immigration work.

After speaking with other attorneys that were unable to provide the help we needed, we were lucky to find Sarah. Sarah is professional, knowledgeable, honest and extremely generous with her time. During our consultation Sarah spent more time than we were expecting and she was able to address all of our concerns in a concise and meaningful manner. Although we were willing to hire her, she explained that at this time our case was straightforward and we should be able to fare well without her assistance. Other attorneys were giving us the runaround and advocating for us to hire them and this is why Sarah is stands out. If our case becomes more complicated we will hire Sarah in the future. We strongly recommend her services to anyone in need of a top end immigration attorney.

I strongly recommend Sarah. She handled my application for permanent residency in the EB-1 category in 2016. Communication with her is always quick and efficient. Her work is not only flawless in content but also thorough and timely. Working with Sarah I knew I was in the best hands.

I recently got an O-1 VISA with an extraordinary ability in the sciences and Sarah exclusively handled the submission for me. She is an amazing immigration lawyer and I will absolutely ask her for Green card later. Sarah’s processing was so speedy that I have got it within one month since we submitted. Sarah also has keen insight to evaluate key requirements of the O-1. It made me optimistic for getting the VISA and feel comfortable. She carefully reviewed the documents including papers, articles, and certifications and tried to find more things which I overlooked. It was great to see her for the work. So I will strongly suggest her to my friends who need VISA. Thank you, Sarah, so much again.

Sarah is one of the most outstanding professionals I have ever met. I have consistently been impressed with her services, from our initial (free) consultation --- an hour-long conversation in which she ran through my options with incredible detail --- to the final stages. She answered all correspondence very promptly, and was very well-versed in the aspects of immigration law that were relevant to my case. Her answers were always very detailed, logical, and mindful of different angles and options an applicant might want to take. Most importantly, she is incredibly kind and easy to talk to. I could not recommend Sarah more highly. I am so glad that I found her and would use her services again in a heartbeat.

I applied for permanent residency. My case was quite complicated and I didn't have a hope because a lot of expert lawyers said it was a weak case. Sarah guided me through the process and reviewed all my documents carefully. She kept me informed along the way and my case was processed and approved successfully. There is something reassuring about dealing with the best of legal talent,Sarah. Her ability to always have a ready answer on hand to even the most complex questions is astounding. She gives more than you pay for. She owns the client's problem and does everything possible to help the client succeed. The time line and sequence of events based on my experience with Sarah evolved exactly the way she said. No surprise-Peace of mind. Thank you Sarah! You went beyond the call of duty and made my dreams come true.

Sarah assisted me in a tax case with the IRS. I am a Spanish postdoc working in a hospital in Manhattan. In my case the issue was that I should have been included in the Spanish-U.S treaty for Student and Trainees by my institution which would have allowed me to be tax-free while I was paid by a fellowship as indicated in the treaty. Neither my institution or the IRS recognized my fellowship as a fellowship but they misclassified it as “income for personal services”, which does not qualify me for a total tax exception under the treaty. Sarah has a lot of experience working with scientists, which is a big advantage because she is familiar with a lab structure and function. Sarah believed in my case from the beginning. She was extremely professional. She did everything in her power to push the case forward, always keeping me informed and answering my questions. After much work and effort, we won the case after the appeal thanks to Sarah’s persistence and excellence. Hiring Sarah for my tax case was the best thing I could have done.
