Exceptional Immigration Lawyer

I had an amazing experience working with Peter and their team on my H1B application. From our first consultation, peter and his team were incredibly knowledgeable and patient about the entire process. What stood out the most was their dedication and responsiveness—every question I had was answered... quickly and clearly, which gave me so much peace of mind during a very stressful time. Th team guided me step-by-step, made sure all documents were thoroughly prepared, and kept me updated throughout. Thanks to Peter's team expertise, my case was approved faster than I expected, and I couldn’t be more grateful. If you’re looking for an immigration lawyer who is not only highly skilled but also genuinely cares about their clients, I wholeheartedly recommend The Jensen Law Group

Good job on the EB3 case

Peter is very professional and gets our EB3 immigration case prepared. He precisely and successfully replies to the RFE asked by USCIS.

Impeccable attorney and team

In embarking on my Green Card application process, I automatically chose to work with Peter as my attorney, because over the years, my wife and five of her friends had also received their Green Cards through working him. Plus, they all think very highly of him. Given Peter’s track record of success a...nd his reputation (both of which I had firsthand knowledge of), I didn’t have a reason to consider anyone else. I ended up receiving my Green Card on my first attempt, ahead of the projected timescales. Some of the attributes of Peter that I value include the following: - Dependable. If I needed to contact him by phone, either I got to speak to him straightaway, or he made sure he returned my call later that day regardless of his other client commitments. He dedicates time to you as a client of his. - Attentive. He takes a great deal of care to explain everything to you in a clear, straight manner. - Communication. He talks articulately. He talks convincingly. He can be very passionate. To me, those are indications of how he will represent your case behind the scenes. I would also like to mention some of the staff at Peter’s firm who support him, as they also proactively and diligently work to represent your case. Erin, the client service manager, really shined in her role in providing guidance on certain types of matters, including on various paperwork that needed completion. She explained everything with real care, attentiveness and clarity. She is most helpful and very timely with her responses. It was a joy to work with her and I had a very positive experience. Laurie Gu, another attorney at Peter’s firm, provided additional support on certain occasions. She was fully engaged in the details concerning my case, and liaised very closely with Peter. She took a very warm and attentive approach when working with me, and I enjoyed working with her too. I appreciate that like myself, many of us have to obtain a form of a US visa because we simply need it for our various personal and family situations. The process can be lengthy and complex, and you certainly don’t want your case to be declined. I would highly recommend Peter as your immigration attorney given his track record, reputation, dependability and integrity. Needless to say, my wife and I are most grateful to Peter as well as Erin and Laurie for their amazing service throughout the entire process.

Green Card

I have consulted with multiple lawyer firms before I chose Jensen and Jensen for my EB1B green card application. It turns out to be a very good and pleasant choice which has saved us many time and efforts. They are very professional and knowledge to deal with all situations in my case. First my case ...for EB1B as an outstanding professor is not as strong at beginning, but the lawyer encouraged us and put more time and effort to distract the significance in my research contribution. That amazed me a lot as doing so needs the specific knowledge in my bioscience area. So I know they must have done a lot work and research to make that happen. Secondly in the progress of green card application, the attorney quickly responded all request from the DHS with greatest details. Especially many thanks go to Erin who is our direct client manager to assist our case. She is very professional to process and follow throughout the application. She has posted us any updates promptly. She has also helped us deal with any panic moments when we received RFE from the DHS. She really did a excellent job!
