Nigerian Woman Granted Asylum After Motion to Reconsider

My family has been the benefactor of the excellent work of this office. The lead attorney and assistant legal staff are committed to maintaining family ties, regardless of the adversities of the geo-political climate.

I am writing this review to recommend the services of Medya Ansari, enthusiastically and unequivocally to anyone looking for an intelligent and compassionate lawyer specializing in immigration. I am so grateful to Medya for helping us navigate the challenging, and often emotionally taxing Citizenship process because we'd have been so lost without her, especially after the attorney who was handling our case bailed out on us. If you are looking for someone to guide you through the intricacies of US immigration policies, you can't find anyone better than Medya Ansari. I am very thankful to Helen Tessema for accommodating us, even though we contacted the office a few days before our Citizenship interview.

We could have not picked out a better advocate. Apart from having a wealth of knowledge and being a highly skilled professional in immigration law, Yemi also connected with us at a personal level. Yemi Getachew gets a five star rating because she is competent, empathetic, and accessible.
Yemi had made what would have been a lengthy and complicated process more straightforward and manageable. She is also very creative and thinks outside outside of the box. Although I tend to fret a lot during stressful situations, Yemi constantly maintained a calm and reassuring demeanor by which we gained confidence from. She was very open, honest, and realistic with us. She was by our side throughout the immigration process clear up to our interview; hence, our interview was a great success thanks to the extensive prep work that she had gone over with us.
As an individual that had immigrated here herself, Yemi was able to relate to me in a personal level while also maintaining her professionalism. It truly felt reassuring to have an advocate that was able to empathize with us.
Last but not least, Yemi was and is always accessible. She would diligently call and update us about our case and how to prepare for the next steps of the process. We never felt alone throughout our immigration process and knew that we were in good hands.
I highly recommend Yemi Gatachew without reservations to anyone who is seeking legal immigration services. As a matter of fact I found out about her from a close friend who had undergone a complicated immigration case. She handled it exceptionally well and has done an excellent job representing my wife and I as well.

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.

This firm has long been the local experts on asylum law and they continue to be the best in the Bay Area. Medya is so knowledgeable and stays apprised of all nuances and changes in current immigration law. Medya answered some questions for me and I was really impressed with the depth of her knowledge, her compassion and commitment to excellence.

A short while ago, my wife and I consulted Miss Ansari on the subject of applying for U.S. naturalization and citizenship. We found Miss Ansari, from the very starting point, quite energetic, knowledgeable, and efficient. We thus retained her to represent our case. I think the whole process took us about four months, and we are now U.S. citizens. It is also of interest to new applicants that her fees are very reasonable and indeed are worth it. I might also add that the office personnel were courteous and friendly.

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!!!!!)

I must state here that Media was like family throughout from start to finish, specially her continued follow up and updates, despite the complicity of the matter. Now and after few months of hard work and dedication, the matter is resolved and we are home again! Thank you Ms. Ansari for your superior work, your display of passion, and for your professionalism. We are grateful to you for many many years to come.
