I would like to start by sharron is a wonderful person golden heart person! Not only she helped me with my work but she sat down and listened to my confusing situation she has put everything in my case all her soul her hard work and patience not only she stood there helping me but after work she woul...d check in on me give me assurance that everything would be okay and what I’m doing is right Sharon has supported me with everything she possibly can. She kept me mentally strong I have never seen any lawyer with this much humanity,Sharon doesn’t see her clients just as clients she see more into that person she creates a bond a strong bond with her Client! I’m not one of those who talks much or feel comfortable with someone this quick, I felt really comfortable this was the first time I could pour my heart out to someone and finally just have someone there for me Sharon has helped me with this case so beautifully and her positive attitude was which kept my anxiety away and stress free.I seriously have no words to describe how relief I feel after she helped me with my case.I always pray the best for her! God bless her Thank you Sharon

One of the best....

I am so grateful for Sharon because in our case, she worked as a miracle worker. I had brought my case to all the senior lawyers that have been handling cases for decades and no one accepted my case and told me that I will have problems and it would be nearly impossible for my wife to come to the US...A because of some issues that happened prior to our case. I lost all hope until Sharon brought in some positive energy and hard work. She literally re opened all her knowledge, did massive research, and added immense amount of energy and reasoning which molded the case into a successful outcome. Our journey with Sharon started in 2014 and she is not just a lawyer who starts clocking in time for every moment she has put on this case. Instead, she checked in on us and how we were mentally handling things and gave us assurance that everything would be positive. We have called her at all times of the day…and believe me even late nights when anxiety used to kick in. But Sharon always treated us with comfort, positivity, and kindness. After my wife’s approval and entry to the USA, no one could believe how her case got approved and she was able to enter the USA. Just this week, Sharon was able to get my wife’s interview for both removal of conditions and Naturalization —both at one time. I seriously do not have words to describe the relief. We have a child now and knowing that my wife’s immigration status has been confirmed, makes planning out life so much easier. In the era when lawyers can charge you for every little minute, I wanted to let everyone know that Sharon is one specific lawyer who puts being human first and realizes that these cases have so much hope, tears, anxiety, and fear in them. Sharon not only did things for us that helped us legally, but helped us psychologically as well. Sharon is a superb lawyer….but a even better human! God bless her.

saved me from trouble

As an H1b employee in the tech industry I received the shock of my life when my employer received an Request for Evidence correspondence letter from Immigration that was about 15 pages long. They were questioning why my job was a specialty occupation even though I am in a senior position. When I saw ...this letter I felt like it was impossible to argue anything as nothing made any sense to me and I was already thinking of a plan B to go back to China but my wonderful employer tried to reassure me and was confident in their lawyer's strategy. Unfortunately the RFE was denied and Immigration sent a Notice of Intent to Deny my case and only gave my employer 30 days to respond. Luckily my employer heard about Ms. Khunkhun who specializes in these complicated Request for Evidence cases. She got to work with her team and prepared a package that was about 10 inches thick in paper. I don't know what she wrote in there but it worked. I received an approval within a matter of days and I am forever greatful to her. Her strategy was so complex but I can see how she has a very specific formula to beat this. She is a very patient and caring attorney and is very gifted in cutting through immigraiton language and providing them with exactly what they want. I honestly felt very defeated by this process but Ms. Khunkhun and her team made me feel like I deserve not only my job but have earned my place in the American workplace.

I'm so lucky Sharon was my Immigration Lawyer

A friend recommended the law office of Sharon Khunkhun for her immigration services as I had a very sensitive immigration case where I had received a Green Card through marriage but decided to divorce due to fact that my spouse and I couldn't see eye to eye. Our marriage did not last long at all as m...y husband just changed so much after our marriage. It wasn't an abusive relationship but we realized that we had such different long term goals. When it came to me having to do the removal of conditions I know I needed the most supportive and knowledgeable lawyer. When I met Sharon it was clear that she had filed many of these cases and some were as bad as mine or even worse. I was scared that someone would judge me and accuse me of marrying for a Green Card which wasn't the case. I was a broken hearted woman who fell in love with someone and realized that we were not compatible. I wanted children and he lead me to believe that he did also and then told me that he will never have children. I felt so betrayed and I didn't have any proof of this. My husband refused to cooperate with me and rejected me for standing with my choice to have a child and mock my culture and traditions. Ms. Khunkhun was able to win my case and not only present my story with compassion, she was able to even evoke compassion from the immigration officer who believed me. This experience helped in my journey to heal also with Ms. Khunkhun's help. She's not a psychologist, but she knows how to make people feel heard. I will forever be grateful to her.

Life Changing

From the first conversation I knew Sharon was the lawyer for me. She took her time out of her day to talk to me and understand my situation. She didn’t hesitate to answer any questions. Getting off the phone with her from the first conversation was a breath of fresh air, I finally knew that everythin...g was going to work out, I had never been more confident about anything in my life. Sharon doesn’t waste anytime she starts working on your case right away. She informed me of ways to get my case done, that no other lawyers had ever told me to do. She’s very well educated and experienced. She knows immigration like the back of her hand. She is very respectful of your time and always gets back to you in a timely manner.My case was on the verge of being denied and Sharon’s knowledge And step-by-step guidance was able to get me approved Even in the middle of a gosh damn Pandemic I have been working on my case for 6 years and Sharon got it done for me in less than month. She’s one in a million, she knows what you are going through. I couldn’t thank her enough, she truly a god sent blessing.
