Green Card Application

I was invited in the US to work for the American company and was granted the working visa H-1B. Later on, my employer’s lawyer sent the application for the Green Card twice and it failed both times. My working visa had to be expired soon. I was in real frustration. Finally, my friends recommended me ...to hire my own lawyer. I was fortunate enough to meet Katerina Utekhina for that matter. Katerina Utekhina wasted no time and prepared all needed papers for application very quickly. As I understand, preparing the full package of the proper papers is crucial in working with Immigration Services. Very soon after sending our application, I have gotten the Green Card as a person with extraordinary ability in the sciences and as advanced degree professional. Communication with Katerina Utekhina always was very simple (in English and in Russian) and extremely friendly. I highly recommend Katerina Utekhina for all who need to solve any immigration problems.

Best Lawyer

This is the best immigration law firm in my opinion. If you want the best lawyers working on your case, this is the place. Katerina Utekhina provides professional service on my L1 visa filing. She is very knowledgeable and experienced in the field. From the first conversation, she correctly predi...cted what to anticipate in my case. Her expertise gave me confidence to continue with the firm, immediately after I talked with her. I wish that I came to Katerina Utekhina earlier for professional assistance. That could have saved tons of sleepless nights and grey hairs.

High-class lawyer Katerina Utekhina

Some days ago my petition for permanent residence in the USA has been approved and I feel it my primary duty to express on my own behalf and on behalf of my family our deepest gratitude to Katerina Utekhina. I chose Katerina Utekhina to represent me because thorough internet research and recommendat...ions of my trusted friends made it clear that she is one of the most experienced and devoted lawyers for challenging and unconventional cases and I was quite sure that my case was one of those – I intended to get United States Permanent Residence Card as an alien of extraordinary abilities, which is not nearly the easiest way for immigration. Katerina always treated me with kindness and respect, and charged me a very reasonable fee for her highly professional services. She never created false expectations or promised pie in the sky, but I felt very well prepared even in slightest details and had a clear idea of the possible outcomes in my situation. I strongly recommend Katerina Utekhina to those, who don’t want to leave to chance their cases, but need precise guidance and invaluable recommendations when interacting with USCIS.
