Very Helpful lawyer

Mr. Ramesh Shrestha is a very knowledgeable lawyer who is always ready to help his clients. I applied for my dad's green card through him, and we were able to get a visa despite some hurdles in our case. Now, my dad is already a green card holder and is so very grateful to Mr. Shrestha and his teamma...te, Ms. Luqi, for their excellent services.

Great lawyer

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

From the initial consultation to the final outcome, Ramesh was professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to my needs. He took the time to listen to my concerns and a...nswer all of my questions, which made me feel confident and supported throughout the process. He also kept me informed every step of the way and was always available to address any issues that arose. Mr Shrestha's expertise in immigration law is evident, and his attention to detail ensured that everything was filed correctly and on time. He went above and beyond to help me navigate the complex legal system, and I am incredibly grateful for his dedication and hard work. Overall, I would highly recommend Ramesh Shrestha to anyone seeking an immigration lawyer. He is an excellent attorney who truly cares about his clients and is committed to achieving the best possible outcome.
