“I originally contracted Ms. Debbi Klopman to handle a visa for a foreign national employee that works for a company I own in South Africa. Being a small business owner and knowing nothing of immigration/visa law; I found myself quickly up to speed by way of Debbi's vast knowledge on the subject. Debbi worked diligently to organize a game plan for a visa that was right for my employee AND right for my business. If you are looking to bring employees into the states for short term or extended projects, I can highly recommend Debbi. She will get you where you need to be and keep you within the parameters of the ever complicated maze of immigration law.” July 27, 2008

Dear Debbi,
Thanks for helping us out once again. You seem to have the talent and skills to make even the most impossible people cooperate!After so many years of doing work for us, you are an integral part of the community. We have been fortunate to work with someone so compassionate and ethical attorney. You have had to be a 'counselor' in every sense of the word.
Warmest Regards,

Dear Debbi,
I just wanted to drop you a line to thank you for your
continuing diligence and sound advice.
As you are well aware, H-1b availability is
uncertain from year to
year, so we have been making more use of L-1a visas to transfer
some of our managers to our New York headquarters. Your
ability to turn these cases around in such a successful manner has
greatly assisted us achieving our staffing objectives.
I appreciate your dogged efforts to turnout a complete,
finished product. Your tenacity and overall knowledge is most impressive and has
been a source of support for us over the last decade. We look forward to a
continued, successful relationship and thank you.
Sincerely,
Ken Plotkin

Dear Ms. Klopman
So nice to finally be working with an
immigration lawyer I
can count on to return calls, know her area of the law and propose
proactive
and creative solutions to so many issues that arise in the corporate
arena.
Thanks again for your assistance and look forward to working with you.

So thanks for everything--the green card, the O extension
and for making the experience vastly different from the one I had with my
previous immigration lawyer. Instead of feeling that mine was just another
file, I felt that you understood both how to get the job done and also to understand
what I was going through.
Because of your efforts I am now in the position to control
my career development and as a result of becoming a resident I was able to
accept the appropriate job opportunity. When I finally do get my tent show, you
will be sitting in a front row seat! Thanks again!

I would like to thank you on behalf
of my family for
rescuing our application for permanent resident status. For four years
we
entrusted our permanent residency application to a lawyer who made
little to no
progress. When we were introduced to you and you advised us to file the
case in
the extraordinary ability first preference category, we were surprised
and
reticent but then amazed that within months we had our employment
authorization
documents followed a few weeks later by permanent residency. Not only
did this
give me flexibility to follow a more fulfilling career path but my wife
was
able to work and my son could get his Learner Permit. The immigration
lawyer is
both advisor and legal counselor because it is such a stressful and
bewildering
process. When you told us “not to worry,” we
learned that we could really relax
in the knowledge that everything was under control. Your support and
intimate
knowledge of the legal process is what distinguishes you from the rest.

Dear Debbi,
Before meeting you we had worked with
many immigration
lawyers. Whenever we ran into a problem, they were somehow unavailable.
Also,
to a person, I had no confidence in any of these attorney's
intelligence or
decision making ability.
By contrast, you are always available
when we need you and have actually turned down work
when you
felt the chances for a successful outcome were slim. As our biggest
challenge
has been to find qualified workers, you have proposed solution after
solution
in the form of different visa programs which we have successfully
implemented.
We look forward to working on a new training program with you sometime
in the
near future.
What prompted me to write this to you
was our most recent
experience. As you well know, two of our most valuable technicians
threatened
to leave us if they could not be reunited with their children. You gracious agreement to review their
cases even
after they chose another attorney meant a lot to me.
Now,
less than four months later their children have plane reservations to join their parents in New York. Had
we not
been able to bring these children to the United States we stood to
loose my
best employees.
I just wanted to write this to let
you know that your
efforts had not gone unnoticed. Thank you Debbi.
Yours truly,
Bianca Jurim, Vice President

Hi Debbi,
Thanks once more for agreeing to intervene. Somehow the previous damage wasnt irrevocable!
Your efficiency,dedication and knowledge about this crazy immigration
system got us here in record time...and for the start of the school
year for my four teenagers. You are the only immigration lawyer we
would refer as we are confident that you would do everything in your
power to get your client a visa. We arent the only people we know that
for whom you have obtained those elusive H1B visas after first being
denied! Just miraculous--
God bless,

Dear Debbi,
I just wanted to
write a note and thank you for your hard work and personal attention in
handling our company's most recent green card sponsorship case. We have worked with other
law firms in the
past, but none can compare. You
responded to our every concern quickly and compassionately, and it felt
as
though you "held our hand" until the end.
