  • I recommend Douglas Lightman.
  • I hired Douglas 1-3 years ago.
  • Douglas handled my Immigration matter.
  • I have previously worked with 3-5 lawyers.

I hired doug to file my adjustment of status application for me and ultimately revieve a green card.My case was not ideal for any lawyer as i had a criminal background from home.Doug kept me informed throughout the whole case (almost 9 months) and was more helpful than i could have asked.His rates are excellent and for the quality of service he provides i would have paid double.I was away from my email when Doug got the news and he contacted me on a Sunday when i returned to give me the great news.Top class

Douglas Lightman did both my TN visa's and recently my green card through marriage. Throughout the process he has been great to work with, he is reliable and patient. I have recommended many people to him and all their cases have been successful.
