Best Lawyer Ever

Today, I am proud to write a review for my attorney who changed my life forever. His professional level is off the charts. I wonder if other lawyers like him are sharp and accurate on even tiny details. I reached out to him when I had completely lost hope in my case. But just like a miracle, today, m...y case is approved. Beware of guys like Luising Waiba who are con artists and nothing else. Mr. Shrestha’s honesty, legal knowledge, and care for the client will never be enough to explain with words. His office staff are really kind, helpful and understanding too. I wish I could give him 10 stars if it was possible. Thank you very much, I will always be grateful to you.

Ashutosh Shrestha

After a long procedure of obtaining a green card, the moment has finally arrived for my green card to be accepted. I can't thank Ramesh Shrestha and everyone at Shrestha Law Firm enough for their hard work and support in making this happen. Their knowledge and quick responsiveness made this process v...ery easy and smooth for me. Ramesh Shrestha has been incredibly supportive of me from the start. I highly appreciate his professionalism and knowledge that helped guide me through this process from the beginning.

For best legal advocacy

Hi I went to an eminent law firm, Shrestha Law Firm, PLLC at 377 Broadway, New York, for the legal process of Asylum. I was very impressed by the high respect and friendly and courteous behavior of this law firm from the first day until the last legal process. I am going to share a short experien...ce about the legal advice given to me and the superiority of this excellent law firm based on what I saw during my case process or telephone contact. Mr. Ramesh Shrestha, the senior advocate of this Shrestha Law Firm and his subordinates, are admirable for their courteous behavior on the telephone and in the office towards their troubled clients. According to my experience, I would like to advise all Nepalese brothers, sisters, parents, and parents who are located in New York to directly contact this law firm. He is very selective and you will be lucky if your case is accepted. I was very impressed to see that Senior Advocate Mr. Ramesh Shrestha first listens and understands all the problems of his clients in detail and gives necessary legal advice, suggestions and legal action if required. He is honest and tells the truth. This kind of behavior is found in very few advocates, most of them give priority to their business. But I felt that he gave first priority to his clients' case and their future. Also, I experienced that the expenses of the law firm is reasonable except for the expenses incurred in the court for legal matters. . By my experience during the legal processing of my case, from here I strongly advise all Nepalese who live in New York may go to contact at his office, or contact on telephone for the legal representation in court, or for legal advice. His office is at 377 Broadway, 8th floor and contact numbers are 212-625-3394, 212-925-1458. Ashok Shrestha 5205 94th street, Elmhurst NY 11373

Best Immigration attorney

The best immigration attorney for all immigration cases. I went to Mr. Shrestha’s office through the recommendation of one of my friends. I had a bad experience from my previous attorney and I did not know what would come out. But to my surprise, he took time to review my case and gave me the confide...nce that I needed to succeed. He was very straight forward and knowledgeable. I immediately hired him. Fast forward, my EB-3 case is approved and today received my green card without an interview. I thank him with my whole heart. If he takes your case, assume you are positively 90% done. I strongly recommend Mr. Shrestha for any immigration case, whether it’s easy or complex.
