Parents US Immigration

We had an excellent experience working with Elliot for my parents’ U.S. immigration process. He assisted us with completing the I-864 and DS-260 forms, which are both lengthy and complex, especially in our case, which had additional complications. Elliot and his team were extremely thorough, detail-o...riented, and ensured everything was completed accurately and on time. Communication throughout the process was outstanding. His team consistently followed up with us, kept us informed at every stage, and were always easy to reach whenever we had questions or concerns. We submitted our file at the end of December and were able to expedite the process. By the end of April, my parents were already called for their interview in Pakistan, which was much faster than we expected. Elliot also did a great job preparing us for the interview. He guided us on exactly what to expect and made sure we had all the necessary documentation ready. Thanks to his preparation and support, the interview went smoothly, and my parents were approved for their green cards. I highly recommend Elliot and his team to anyone going through the immigration process. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication truly made a stressful process much easier for our family.

Winners....

It has been an absolute pleasure working with Rahimi Law Firm. The team is professional, reliable, and exceptionally knowledgeable. They prepared a very strong case and gave us confidence throughout the entire process. While immigration cases are often lengthy, the outcome is what truly matters and ...we achieved exactly that. The firm is flexible with payment options and consistently prompt and clear in their communication. The supporting staff and paralegals are outstanding. They managed and explained hundreds of pages of documentation, consulted with us at every step, and made adjustments as needed. I highly recommend Rahimi Law Firm. They are simply winners.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
