Fraudulent activity, No ethics, this attorney needs to be investigated

This attorney is fraudulent on all types of level. He has no ethics at all and is taking money from families who have worked extremely hard for what they have. Kofi Owusu and his associates lie on all forms and applications. He claimed I had domestic violence with my mother and submitted them to US...CIS. During the interview my mother was straight forward that no domestic violence of any type occurred, however that landed her in getting her case denied and now she is facing possible deportation. Please if you’re reading this review do not have this attorney or his associates represent you. You can contact me at [email protected] so we can ban together and stop this situation from occurring to other families who are at risk of deportation. Este abogado es fraudulento en todo tipo de nivel. No tiene ética en absoluto y está aceptando dinero de familias que han trabajado muy duro por lo que tienen. Kofi Owusu y sus asociados mienten en todos los formularios y solicitudes. Afirmó que tuve violencia doméstica con mi madre y los envió a USCIS. Durante la entrevista, mi madre fue directa en que no ocurrió ningún tipo de violencia doméstica, sin embargo, eso la llevó a que le negaran su caso y ahora enfrenta una posible deportación. Por favor, si está leyendo esta revisión, no haga que este abogado o sus asociados lo representen. Puede contactarme en [email protected] para que podamos prohibir juntos y evitar que esta situación le ocurra a otras familias que están en riesgo de deportación.

YOU DESTROYED A WHOLE FAMILY FOR YOUR SELFISH DESIRES

You should be ashamed of what you did to that family, It makes me sick to my stomach that you made them lose their father like that, I don’t know how you’ll sleep at night but I hope you never go through something like that and may god punish you for what you need

FRAUDULENT !!!

If I can give him 0 stars I would. I have a family member who was filing a case to become a full on American Citizen. When she finally obtained her Work Travel Authorization Card, he told her to go to her home country and to come back with her card. She followed as he said, and they immediately held ...her in deportation. She’s now waiting on her court date to hear the decision on wether or not she will be deported. Immigration validated that all paperwork and work visa, travel visa was all fraudulent. On top of that Kofi states that her children are abusive towards her, which is a lie completely. He only cares about your money. Disgusting piece of human being, is what he is.

If you had the same issue with this lawyer please contact me

Hello My name is Kevin. My parents tried filling for their residence since we heard good things about this lawyer. We went his office , it was a mess. We were misled. He said l my parents getting their papers . He filed a petition for violence claiming children abuse of parents. We didn’t even know ...he filed this type of petition and it wasn’t what the paralegal told us. If you were a client of his who experienced the same thing, please contact us [email protected] Or @[email protected] Hola mi nombre es Kevin. Mis padres intentaron llenar su residencia ya que escuchamos cosas buenas sobre este abogado. Fuimos a su oficina, era un desastre. Nos engañaron. Dijo que mis padres sacaban sus papeles. Presentó una petición por violencia alegando abuso infantil de los padres. Ni siquiera sabíamos que presentó este tipo de petición y no fue lo que nos dijo el asistente legal. Si usted fue un cliente suyo que experimentó lo mismo, contáctenos [email protected] O @[email protected]

Fraude

Este abogado es un fenómeno a mi madre le cobró 7 mil dólares. Haciendo promesas y asegurando que su caso seguía apoyado con la evidencia presentada . Cuando fue a la entrevista de inmigración el oficial le dijo que el abogado la había engañado y que todo lo que él había hecho no tenía ninguna base ...legal absoluta. Un hijo no puede pedir aún padre de la nada así por que si . No acudan a este abogado. Aseguren su dinero.
