I first went to Kira for help applying to DACA, but after telling her my story she recognized that I would be eligible to apply to become a lawful permanent resident. She was always professional, prompt, and an invaluable guide through an immigration process that can be both complicated and confusing...

Need to improve communication
I hired Ms. Gagarin to help me with the J-1 waiver application. While I had worked with immigration lawyers before, I had certain expectations regarding client-lawyer communication, however, Ms. Gagarin made me quite uncomfortable by the unwillingness to hold open dialogue on the matters that were mo...

Replied last August 29, 2016Hi Anonymous. We worked together on your J Fulbright waiver, as you stated, for well over a year, with dozens of communications. That case was won - which is no easy task in the Immigration World. I distinctly remember how happy and thankful you were for that result and how happy I was, myself, as that took a lot of work and outreach. After our contract was completed and what I was hired to do was done, there were questions posed to me that, due to my ethical obligations, I was not able to advise you on. And that is why I stated just that - that I am unwilling and unable to assist. I stand by those statements. It is unfortunate that that last bit, after over a year of work and an approved case, is what you seem to be taking away in this case. I took away an approved J Waiver after a lot of hard work so I am happy with that result. After all, that was what I was hired for and it was completed. In any event, I am glad that you found an attorney to assist you with the rest of your case and hope that the rest of your case goes smoothly.
