I had the privilege of working with Akosua on an EB-1 visa application, and I cannot speak highly enough of her professionalism, expertise, and dedication throughout the entire process.

From the initial consultation, Akosua demonstrated a deep understanding of the EB-1 category and laid out a clear strategy that aligned perfectly with my career background.

She was meticulous in reviewing the credentials, guiding me through the documentation process, and crafting a compelling petition that showcased the qualifications in the best possible light.
What stood out most was Akosua’s attention to detail and her commitment to excellence — every letter, form, and exhibit was handled with precision.

Her communication was prompt and thorough, and she always made time to answer my questions and keep me informed. Thanks to her skill and hard work, my EB-1 petition was approved without a Request for Evidence, which speaks volumes about the strength and clarity of the case she prepared.

If you are considering an EB-1 application, I wholeheartedly recommend Akosua. Her legal acumen, work ethic, and genuine care for her clients set her apart.
