As the HR Director for a tech firm expanding into new markets, navigating the complex web of employment-based immigration and compliance was a daunting challenge. Barbara Melendez was recommended to us for her leadership in immigration law, and the recommendation was spot-on. Her deep expertise in both family and employment immigration, particularly for multi-national entities, proved invaluable. Barbara didn't just process visas; she crafted a strategic compliance roadmap for our international hires. She expertly handled a particularly sensitive L-1A intra-company transfer for a key executive, anticipating potential requests for evidence and preparing a bulletproof petition. Her professionalism is matched by her personal approach—she is always accessible and explains intricate legal concepts with clarity. Thanks to Barbara's guidance, we secured critical approvals without delay, allowing us to onboard essential talent and maintain seamless operations. She is a true strategic partner.
