Suneeta Deewan is one of the Best Immigration Lawyer

My wife and I came to the US in 2004 and we were referred to attorney Suneeta Dewan through a good friend. We are so glad that we have found her. She was always there by our side and helped us as she has excellent knowledge of immigration law Over these years we have filled for H1-B’s and multiple ex...tensions and soon we will be a permanent resident of the U.S. Our case was really complicated, as we changed jobs multiple times and filed for extensions many times through the course of 17 years. During my entire immigration process, Suneeta Dewan was highly professional, very meticulous, and caring. My family and I are extremely grateful to her as she took us out of immigration darkness to light and gave us so much happiness. Suneeta Dewan is truly the Best Immigration lawyer and a wonderful person. I recommend her services to all people who need immigration assistance.

Professional and excellent staffs

Suneeta is very knowledgeable and professional. Her staffs are experienced and courteous. She has been helping me and my brother with 100% success. Her staffs are on top of the inquiries and answers queries after deep dive so there is no additional work or clarification needed. I would highly recomme...nd her for help on immigration issues.

Incompetent

Worst experience ever. The lawyer Suneeta assigned to my case left their office and they kept me on hold without knowing exactly what to do until I found another lawyer - no need to say that they never reimbursed me the fee that I paid and didn’t show any intention to do so -. Once, when I asked Sune...eta questions about my case and told her what I had read in the USCIS website, she visibly didn’t know how to answer and felt uncomfortable, once I left her office I assume she checked online - I should say that my question was not rocket science and she, as an experienced lawyer, should know what to answer- came after me and just said that I was right. In my case, my husband passed, I had to add to the grieving and sorrow to deal with their lack of knowledge of how to transfer a case from being married to an American citizen to process the case as a widower of an American citizen. Instead of lightning my burden they made everything more complicated incurring in a waste of time and money. If I were you I wouldn’t put my case in her hands, there are many good immigration lawyers in this city and an immigration process is a big deal.

Dear Antonio, We are very sorry and surprised to read your review. Your last email to us well over a year ago thanked us for our kind words and support. You did not once communicate any dissatisfaction to us, and as such we were not given an opportunity to address any grievances you did have. We were always available to speak with you, as I’m sure you can attest, given the quick responses you received to your frequent emails. We would like to state that our hesitations were not due to any uncertainty with the law, but were instead because of certain facts specific to your case. Further, the fees you paid to us were for an application that we completed and filed. It did not include the subsequent services you required, which we consulted you on for no additional charge. We wish you had brought your concerns and dissatisfaction to us directly so that we could have resolved them. Should you care to do so, we would be happy to meet and speak with you about this further.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT

Our family has been fortunate to get competent assistance from the attorneys and entire staff of Dewan & Associates, Pllc. During our unusually prolonged procedure for adjustment of status to permanent residence, we were continuously advised and guided throughout the process and the preparation o...f paperwork. When we needed to travel outside the US, Dewan & Associates provided covering letters clarifying the status of our case which were very helpful. We are particularly grateful to Ms. Suneeta Dewan not only for her valuable guidance, but also for the fact that we could contact her at any time in case of a problem. For applicants who need competent immigration attorneys and value their peace of mind, we highly recommend Dewan & Associates, Pllc. This is the right place to go to: Good Luck! Vassilina & Peter DIKIDJIEV

A great Lawyer and an Angel/ Best Law firm

Suneeta Dewan and Michelle Lino assisted me in my case and I got approved. This case was a case that other lawyers had told me there was no hope but they gave me their undivided attention and helped through all the applications and I’m extremely grateful to them. You will never be disappointed with t...hem
