Elizabeth made the entire immigration process go as smoothly as possible. She was timely in her communication with us and always easily available by phone or email. We were reassured by her knowledge of the process and we were confidant that Elizabeth was handling the paperwork in the best and most timely manner possible. I would highly recommend Elizabeth Streefland for immigration legal needs.

I would definitely recommend anyone to hire this lawyer (Elizabeth Streefland). Things were NOT going on well for me with another lawyer as he struggled to help me get my permanent resident. One of my friend referred me with Lawyer Elizabeth and she made everything seem easy with calm head. Fortunately, she was able to help me get my permanent resident within 3 months! Such a great lawyer, Thank you Lawyer Elizabeth.

Elizabeth is not only extremely professional, she is also incredibly understanding and supportive. She made my application process completely simple and made my life so much easier to manage at a time when red tape and legal issues could have been extremely stressful. She was also there with me through the past 18 months keeping me updated and also advised me when I had to do additional things with regards to my application. She is and extremely attentive and caring lawyer and I would 100% recommend her to anyone.

Elizabeth represented me during all the green card process and work visa. It s been a long time since I have had the best lawyer ever. Her ethic, responsibility, passion and love for her job definitely describes her excellent dedication in all her cases. I would strongly recommend Elizabeth as immigration lawyer for any immigration case. She always answered my questions on time. In fact I will be working with her on the next steps I am going to need. If I have give her a rate from 1 to 10 and 10 is the highest score, I will say 20. I am truly happy and blessed for have been represented by someone like her in my case. There is no doubt that the way Elizabeth take cares of the human being in general exceed the expectations in this world.

Was there for our family from beginning to end and a great help to my wife and I. She is extremely knowledgeable and kind. I have no reservations in recommending her to anyone we know needing immigration counsel.

My brother had some questions regarding I485 denial based on his wife withdrawal. Elizabeth talked to us about the law and patiently explained our options. I would highly recommend her.

My husband is from Central America and I am from the U.S. We were advised legally by 6 immigration attorneys (including two "wannabe" lawyers) before starting to work with Elizabeth in 2007. She has been everything the others were not. She cared about us as people first. Where others always insisted on starting proceedings right away to make a quick buck, she took our stakes are seriously as we did: If things didn't work out we risked being separated -- each stuck in our own countries -- for 10 years. She is very easy to get a hold of when you need her. She watches the political climate. She has an amazing big-picture view and always gives you the straight answer.
Elizabeth is an expert unlike any other: Caring, smart, and knows when to pull the trigger. She is exactly who we needed and we are forever grateful to her for her solid gold advice.
I referred a friend to her at one point in time. Her husband had come to the United States on a fiancee visa and he was going to have to return to his home country. The lawyer they were using said there was no way around it. After a half hour conversation with Elizabeth, they knew what to do to solve the problem and keep him here.
My friend's husband is now a citizen and my own husband is a permanent resident. Don't trust anyone else with your case!

I am writing this comment to say a huge “thank you” to Elizabeth and let everyone know how fast she expedited my case. The main reason I am writing this is to let someone find her who might need a help because she is one of the best immigration lawyers I’ve ever had an experience with.
I had an interview for adjustment of status based on DV lottery on 3th of August, 2015. An immigration officer denied my case because I filed I-485 early (I had J-1 visa two years requirement and I was supposed to wait for a favorable recommendation of the Department of State). I was so desperate when I left the building, and I thought it was the end. I was told to find a good immigration lawyer who knew how to expedite the new I-485 I was supposed to refile. I met well known and experienced lawyers in Minneapolis, MN who asked $100-300 consultation fees. After meeting with them, I felt that they did not know or were not sure how to expedite the new I-485. And then, on this website, I found Elizabeth Streefland. We talked over the phone and she told me that she had done this before. I met her on 8/07/2015 without paying any consultation fees.
She explained me every steps she was going to make, and I decided to hire her because for some reason I felt safe. A fee I paid her was fair and reasonable compared to what others asked me.
A long story short, she put everything together and send the files the next day. She contacted USCIS and got my J-1 visa waiver approved in two days. Here are the exact dates:
- First meeting with Elizabeth - 8/7/2015
- USCIS approved J-1 visa two years home country residency requirement on 8/10/2015
- USCIS received a new I-485 on 8/13/2015
- Waived second biometrics and Interview – 8/20/2015
- USCIS approved my I-485 – 8/24/2015
- Green card was sent to me – 9/3/2015
During the whole process, she was letting me know everything she was doing (forwarded me every emails she sent out related to the case). So I knew what she was doing and how the process going. I’ve never had even a single question while working on the case, because she is great at keeping you updated. I am not writing the exact details (how she expedited the case) to avoid publishing a confidential information.
She is very professional and responsible, and she knows what she is doing. By the time I met her, I did not even have a hope to receive a green card. What she did, seemed impossible to me, and I am so thankful for all she has done for me. She did a great job and got my case approved in 11 days, and I am holding my green card now, right after 26 days I met her.
I hope this will be helpful for someone who is in the same or worse situation than me. If so, I highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone who may need a help.

My company transferred me from Mexico 20 months ago, and she help me to get my TN visa in less than two months. Then she informed me of my possibilities and processed my L1 visa at the beginning of the year. Finally she processed immediately my green card and I received it the next year.
During the whole time she kept in touch with me informing the progress of the process always in a warm and professional manner.
I widely recommend her.

Elizabeth has helped me through multiple work visas and permanent residency application. She is always very responsive and truly demonstrates that she cares for her clients. She made sure she was available on the phone and email even to provide support when the processing center was backlogged and hence the process delayed. Her professional advice and words of encouragement have helped me sail through the process with a lot of strength and without any problems. Her eye for detail has ensured that I sail through the process without any unwanted problems. I have dealt with supposedly the best in the business at my previous work places and would recommend Elizabeth to everybody.

Elizabeth has handled all of our immigration legal work for the last 20 years. This has included many H1b visas, several PERMs and E visas for top managers/owners. She is quite knowledgeable and has helped us many times as we explore various visa options. She is very available and easy to communicate with. On several occasions, we have imposed very short deadlines, which she has always met. I recommend her very highly.
