Immigration advice session

It was very useful experience!!

Knowledgeable, Dedicated and Caring Attorney

I went to Attorney Rupal's office mid March 2016 for a quick consult on my mom’s green card application. I had sent the incorrect application fees and the whole application package was sent back. She patiently answered all of my questions, looked through the whole application package and made correct...ions. I was really impressed by her attention to details and dedication to helping me. We re-sent the application of March 16, had her finger prints taken two weeks back and got her advance parole/ead card last week. And today I got my mom’s Green Card in the mail!!! Can’t believe that we got her green card in less than two months. My mom is so excited that she can come to USA and go out without having to worry about visa. I will highly recommend Attorney Rupal to anyone looking for immigration help in the NJ area.

Very thorough and thoughtful advice

I spoke to Ms. Aristimuno today regarding my the best steps to take for my green card filing as my situation is a bit complex. She reviewed my case carefully and gave me some great advice on how to proceed, what my options are along with the best course of action to take. She was very patient, respon...sive and understanding. I would recommend her to anybody.

Fantastic Lawyer & Trustworthy

Great Lawyer and a worthy friend to have. Smart, Trustworthy and gives the right advise as it is. The best immigration attorney that I have ever worked with. I had a strange situation. I was stuck in a job which my friends said I should leave and it happened as they had predicted. I was very clos...e to loosing my job and also my legal status. At that time, Rupal gave me the confidence to move forward, stayed in touch at every point when I needed her. She also tolerated my very low esteem and confidence. That support helped me get job in tough times and then my visa filing had issues in it. My friends told me that an RFE is for sure coming and that it might also get denied. To my surprise, Rupal got my visa transfer done like a cakewalk. She is so good at what she does that she told me that I don't need to worry about anything anymore. She'd also has great strategy skills. Told what to do when I had issues with my ex- employer. She slso told me that I don't need any lawyer's help for my current situation and that we will fight it if it happens. Turns out all things are good for now. Rupal played s huge told in that. What a lawyer! The best I have met. Strongly recommended.

Excellent attorney!

Attorney Rupal was very helpful and easy to work with. She is an out of the box thinker and was very patient in answering any questions regarding my visa situation. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable lawyer who is also very personable and easy to work with.
