Paul Trevor Shane

I discovered Paul Shane through a small ad in a Boston paper when he had just set up his practice in the area, years ago now. I had a relative in Eastern Europe who had overstayed his student visa and once he returned home he could not get a new visa. He had a basketball scholarship in the US which h...e stood to lose if he couldn't start classes on time. Paul Shane researched the situation and discovered a tiny loophole, wrote a fax to the US Embassy there detailing his position, then got on the phone with the Consul, and my relative got his visa in the nick of time. It was such a relief. To top it all, Paul charged us a very fair fee of just four hours' work. Some years later I reached out to Paul when another relative was denied a visitor visa on the grounds of having no proof she'd return home. Paul gave us a list of documents to collect, then wrote a fax to the Embassy detailing why my relative satisfied every visa requirement, and supplied documents to prove every single sentence in that fax. It was over 20 pages long. My relative got her visa and has since been back several times and was never denied a visa again. I can highly recommend Paul because he worked with us to keep his fees lower by having us do as much of the legwork as possible. In addition, Paul was always very friendly and happy to explain the process over the phone, and even provide free initial advice.
