About Law Offices of Brenda J. DeArmas Ricci

Ms. Brenda J. DeArmas Ricci is a native of Tampa, Fla. After graduating high school, she left Florida to pursue her undergraduate education at Loyola University in New Orleans, La. Upon getting her bachelor’s degree, she attended Loyola University Law School, where she earned her Juris Doctor in 1981. That same year, she founded the Law Offices of Brenda J. DeArmas Ricci and began official operations in downtown New Orleans. During the early years of her practice, Ms. DeArmas Ricci had only one employee, Ms. Irma J. Montemayor. In 1981, Ms. Montemayor had already gained many years of experience as a paralegal for another immigration law firm. Moreover, Ms. Montemayor has remained as Ms. DeArmas Ricci’s dedicated paralegal and secretary since the business began operations. They have worked together for over 30 years in the field of immigration law, and they have handled thousands of immigration cases. After a brief period at 614 Tchoupitoulas St., the practice was moved to the World Trade Center in New Orleans in 1983. The business continued to expand and the staff gained notoriety for its passion and proficient knowledge regarding immigration law. In 2007, Ms. DeArmas Ricci hired Mr. Parker S. Kornick as her law clerk. In 2009, Mr. Kornick earned his Juris Doctor from Loyola University Law School, and he has remained with the company as an associate attorney concentrating in Immigration Employment Law. Also in 2009, the business relocated to its current location of 400 Poydras St., Suite 2375, New Orleans, La. The company continues to expand by offering a variety of family immigration, employment immigration, tourist visas, temporary work visas, waivers, student visas, translations, EOIR litigation and more.

I had a real bad experience with the attorney from Brenda’s office! Rude people! If you have a very easy case then you can trust them, but, if your case is a little different, I suggest you to find someone else… Alec was the attorney that was taking care of my case, I’ve trusted him but, after all it seems that he had no clue about what he was doing. I first went to see Brenda, she sent me to Alec, he couldn’t do anything to help me when I asked him to help me with Uvisa., he wasn’t able to get it from the judge., One more time I trust him with my case, he told me I had great chance to succeed, I’ve trusted him, he applied for “I130 Petitions for Alien Relative” that was approved by the USCIS., he sent me an email congratulating me and asked me to show up to the office to start the next step but, when I got myself in the office, he told me that my chance to succeed is almost nothing, does it make any sense? He said: The I130 doesn’t mean anything (anybody can be approved for I130) if so, why he applied for that? Why he made me expend money and wait 17 months for nothing? I started to ask him some questions, he got mad at me and withdrawn himself from the case, and want me to pay for his mistakes., they don’t care about anybody, they only care about taking your money…I will take action for that. I don’t recommend Alec from Brenda’s office.

Getting an appointment set up and meeting with an attorney was so easy. She seemed very knowledgeable and offered excellent advice in my immigration issue, which allowed me to put a lot of worries and concerns to rest. Bad immigration lawyers come a dime a dozen these days and I'm glad I found a good one.

I highly recommend the law firm; they provided me with total assistance with my brother's case. It was weeks of distress and difficulty, but Mr Alec, who handled the case, gave me a lot of security and confidence. Thank you for the support!
