Excellent communicator

As my attorney I found Roger Asmar to be an excellent communicator with a great deal of knowledge in the area of immigration. His representation was excellent and I would have no problem recommending him to anyone I know.

Mr. Asmar had a lot of experience in divorce cases

When I was served divorce papers I had no attorney. My husband's attorney was very aggressive and tried to intimidate me. As soon as I hired Roger Asmar as my divorce attorney the entire tone changed. Mr. Asmar had a lot of experience in divorce cases and turned the entire situation around with his l...egal savvy. We were able to reach a mediated settlement without a lengthy and costly court battle and I was happy with the outcome. I would rate Mr. Asmar as a five out of five star attorney for knowledge, skill and compassion.

Mr. Asmar is a very kind and caring lawyer

Roger Asmar was my lawyer when I was having serious issues with immigration and helped me to obtain a T visa. I was trafficked into this country and was afraid to go to the INS. I was told about Mr. Asmar by someone I met and he helped me by going to immigration for me and explaining my case. I helpe...d the authority catch the people who were bringing in workers and forcing them to work. Because of his help I can stay in this country. Mr. Asmar is a very kind and caring lawyer.

Excellent representation

Mr. Asmar displayed a stellar performance handling an immigration issue for my father. His legal expertise and knowledge of the system led to the case being dismissed. My father remains with me today thanks to the excellent representation that was provided by Roger Asmar.

Professional, positive, enthusiastic and loves to help people.

I had a few meetings with Roger... they were all last-minute crisis-mode meetings. Despite his busy schedule, Roger was always available and willing to meet with me and discuss my immigration concerns in detail (specifically my employment-based PERM petition). He was extremely thorough, receptive a...nd address the heart of the matter in a direct and energetic manner. While I went to his office convinced that I had no hope to go forward, I left the office energized and hopeful that things would work out... indeed his prediction was correct - things did work out and I received my PERM approval yesterday. :) Thank you Roger.
