Ariel Rawls

Skilled and compassionate guidance through a complex visa process

I engaged Ariel Rawls at Grossman Young & Hammond to assist my family with a complex employment-based visa application that had hit several procedural snags. From our initial consultation in their Bethesda office, Ariel demonstrated a clear and reassuring command of immigration law. Her background, including her recognition by Best Lawyers in this specific field, was immediately evident in her strategic approach. She meticulously prepared our documentation and anticipated potential issues with USCIS, which proved invaluable. The process was stressful, but Ariel's professionalism and personal attention made it manageable. She explained each step in understandable terms and was genuinely invested in our successful outcome. While her expertise is top-tier, there were a couple of instances where email responses took a bit longer than expected during particularly busy periods. This is a minor point in an otherwise excellent experience. I am confident in recommending Ariel Rawls for anyone in the Baltimore/Washington area needing skilled immigration counsel.
