Best Green Card processing service for people between Bachelor and Master degree

Really great experience with Perter Jensen's law office. He got recommended to me for a Green Card application. The process ended up longer than expected since there have been an audit, etc. However, at a point I wanted to give up the law office advised me differently and 4 month later I got the ap...proval for the Green Card. Pros: - Really great to work with, - Good price point - Getting the job done - Very good for Bachelor / Master degree application - In depth evaluation for best option Minor Cons: - Needed to double check documents for minor issues Glad it got that recommendation. I wouldn't got my Green Card without them or it would have taken many years. Thank you so much and I will highly recommend you to any other people they will need your service.

H1B transfer case

I had quite a challenging case for my H1B transfer with one of the worst RFEs that one can get. Peter was very knowledgeable and could explain the situation in simple terms yet is realistic about the possible negative outcome of my case. Peter and his team went above and beyond to get the positive re...sult for my case and did not charge me a dollar extra for all the extra time that they had to spend on it. My H1B was approved and I am beyond grateful to Peter Jensen and his colleagues!

My lawyer since 2007!

Peter has been my immigration lawyer since 2007. He handled my J1, H1B, and green card applications. All cases went smoothly and my green card application just got approved yesterday! Peter is very professional and the fees he charge are reasonable. It was easy to make a consultation appointment with... him. It cost me $50, but he told me all my legal options and their application processes once he learned my situation. He has Taiwanese people working for him and that's very helpful for me because I'm from Taiwan. They know exactly what kind of Taiwanese documents I need for each of my applications. I like his team too. Erin was the lady handing my green card case. She is knowledgeable and friendly. Peter and his team made my American dream come true. Thank you!

Strongly Recommend!

I highly recommend Peter Jensen for Permanent Residency applications. One of my friends had recommended Peter Jensen to me. His rates are very reasonable. Even though we were not successful on our first attempt, Peter and his team worked very hard on my case and helped me to get my I-140 approved. He... did not charge me a dime to re-file my I-140 application and gave a firm credit as we were unsuccessful the first time. Peter and his team (Erin, Matt and others) were very patient and I never had any issues of communicating with them. They responded to my phone calls and emails in a timely manner. Finally, my wife and I received our Green Cards and I am very happy that we used Peter's help for our Permanent Residency Application. Thank you very much for your help Peter!

Joyce his paralegal extremely unprofessional

Please do NOT trust this lawyer and his pareja Joyce. They ghosted me and ruined my case as his paralegal never submits the documents and you have to push and call her to do the job. Very unprofessional and made me lost lots of money and complicated my immigration process. Honestly I think all the re...views here are fake.
