professional and experienced lawyer

Ramesh Shrestha is a professional and experienced lawyer. Because of his effort and guidance, I got my green card within three months. He gives me all the necessary information I need to submit. I tried other lawyers but did not find them as knowledgeable as Ramesh. I highly recommend him for any imm...igration process.

Excellent Immigration Attorney

Amazingly professional, detailed and to the point attorney. I had few lawyers in the past but I just wasted money and got nothing. One Attorny even made me subject to deportation order. But Mr. Shrestha skillfully navigated my case and removed all the obstacles. Today, I am a permanent resident of th...e United States. If anyone looking for an experienced immigration attorney, do a favor to yourself and just go to him. I strongly recommend attorney Shrestha for any immigration case.

Excellent immigration lawyer

Ramesh was my lawyer for 5 years. From the day of first consultation to the day I got my green card, he has been a great lawyer by updating about my case, guiding through every forms and documents, taking mock interviews. I had a complicated case of status adjustment and had a different lawyer at fi...rst. But, I switched to Ramesh and everything was handled very carefully and effectively. Immigration cases are highly sensitive, stressful and it is crucial to have a lawyer that keeps constant communication with you. To anyone out there looking for a reliable, highly knowledgeable immigration lawyer, I highly recommend Mr. Ramesh Shrestha. His positive attitude, professionalism and guidance helped me to get what I had been waiting for past 5 years. Thank you once again to attorney Ramesh and his entire staff.
