I would highly recommend Getachew & Ansari. The attorney working with us was Medya Ansari, and she was professional, knowledgeable, friendly and dogged in her pursuit of a successful outcome for us. We worked with her first on a fiancee visa, and that was successful, then on a green card, and that too ended with a successful outcome. I wouldn't hesitate to highly recommend this firm, as we both were 100% satisfied. A very happy couple!

It is my honor to have met Yemi, and to provide this unqualified review of her, as a person and as one of the best immigration attorneys that I know. I have been benefitted by her expertise, knowledge, and professionalism. She is truly a trusted advisor. Most importantly, to me, she cares about and is committed to her clients. For her, "going the extra mile" is not just a metaphor; indeed, she will travel that extra mile for you. She makes your journey her own, and holds no bar in helping you achieve your immigration goals in the United States. I would look no further and hire her today!

What a wonderful and brilliant woman ! I wish I could say a lot, unfortunately I'm very bad at articulating my thoughts. Thank you Yemi for your help and professionalism.

I had a fantastic experience with Medya and her team. My case was really complicated, and many other immigration attorneys said they wouldn't take it. Medya found a way to make it successful. They worked really hard, and we won it. I'm forever grateful to her and her team (Helen and Rudy), who were on point all the time. Thanks again.

I hardly write reviews, but after speaking with Yemi this morning, I would feel bad, if I do not write about my great conversation with her. The front office was very helpful and polite. They immediately helped me to make an appointment with Yemi. Thank you. Yemi was very friendly, helpful, empathetic and professional. She listened to my case and gave me great advices. If I decided to go through my case with a lawyer, I would definitely be her client. Thank you so much to everyone at Yemi Getachew law office.

My wife and I came into Getachew’s law office unsure of my future. Speaking with Medya gave us a sense of security and hope for a positive outcome. Fast forward a couple of years and I’m so thankful and happy I came to Getachew & Ansari’s law office. My family is grateful for all your help. Thanks again!

Luis B.

She is truly expert and her advise is precise and nothing vague. Her support is always kind and appropriate with timely manner. We feel the sense of safety and trust. Thank you for your support!

Yemi Getachew! Well where can I start?
I had the pleasure of being recommended to Yemi Getachew by multiple Eritrean/Ethiopian people, who had the opportunity of being her clients once. I was in a desperate situation where i have been given a 30 day final notice to appeal my declined self petition to court. I didn't have a lawyer at that time, however i had gotten advice from a lawyer which led me to even a worser situation. I was desperate and hopeless. So a few days later after i finally got the chance to meet Yemi in her office, I walked out with some hope. It was a strong case. She was forward with me, told me it was going to be hard and that its not guaranteed to win but we will do our best. People told me she was the best immigration lawyer, I didn't believe it until I got the chance to work with her. She managed to help me with my asylum case in a very short limited time! She starts out being rough and very forward but only for your own benefit! She will be with you throughout the entire time holding your hands and won't give up until she wins the case! I really didn't think i was going to win, but a month later I was granted asylum with the help of Yemi! I heard she has yet to lose a case!.. I am surprised she doesn't have alotta reviews on yelp but than it made sense, Its cause all her clients are non-english speakers that are not familiar with yelp or any other app yet! They are just desperate for help from terrible situation. I would honestly say its been a GREAT PLEASURE WORKING WITH HER! She has changed my life.and I would recommended her to everybodyyyyyyy in desperate situations.. Shes the best immigration lawyer out here!!! And i hope she continues to change peoples lives! (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!)
