My greencard experience through marriage.

I personally would recommend this lawyer to anyone that needs fast and positive results with their immigration case. He was reasonable, candid and professional with a little humor. My green card came through in just a year from the first interview. There was just one obstacle that hindered my case... or I would have gotten it sooner perhaps, but he fought it through. They prolonged my case based on speculations that could not have been proven. Mr. Gursoy was well knowledgeable and so we made it through. I admire the tremondous amount of dedication and effort that was put forward by his staff. They were very courteous and responsive, truly amazing.

Very professional and responsive team got my legal status with their help. Suggested everyone.

I came to United States 13 years ago and and did not leave after my visa has expired. Since then, i have contacted many lawyer. I have spoke more than 10 different lawyer and spent serious money on my case but had no luck. I especially choose American lawyer to get correct answer and reach result on ...my legal status as early as i can. However, none of them could help me enough nor give me correct information. I was almost going to be deported from country. By that time, one of my friend - was almost going to be deported as well. His family all together have green card now - suggested me Umit Gursoy. I met with Mr Umit end of 2012 and explained him everything clearly. He gave me very clear information about my case. His team also showed a good effort to help me. Today Im legal in this country. When I met a lawyer at Philadelphia, he told me that I will be deported in 90 days. However I am still here and have my legal status. I am thanking to Mr Umit, Ms. Ipek, Mr Ali and all of his other team for their friendly help. I suggest everyone contact them for their needs.

Immigration deportation case

We found Mr. Gursoy and his staff while searching the web for an immigration attorney during a most difficult and traumatic time (Mr. Gursoy had a video of how he handles immigration cases and we were very impressed). My husband of 14 years was picked up by immigration at 6:30am on October 22, 2012... in the middle of his sleep in our family home with our 11 year old son sleeping in the next room for a crime he committed almost 20 years ago. Mind you, my husbands been here on a green card since 1978 when he was just 10 years old. The family loved Mr. Gursoys personality. He's very outgoing and he definitely knows his stuff. He was very confidant that my husbands case would be closed. He had more faith than I did. After 6 long months and millions of documents submitted my husband finally got his master hearing. That was April 3rd, 2013. We ended up with the most difficult judge in the entire country (from what I researched on the web). After seeing the judge my husbands trial date was scheduled for September 29, 2015 (yes, you read that correct) to see if he was staying here with me and our son or being deported to a country he has never been to. Mr. Gursoy not long after the master hearing requested a face-to-face meeting with the judge and prosecutor to discuss my husbands deportation case (for heaven sake, he made a mistake almost 20 years ago). Tuesday, May 14, 2013 I received the greatest news from Mr. Gursoy. the judge reviewing my husbands deportation case decided to close his case. During the entire time we retained Mr. Gursoy he kept up up to date and well informed as to what was going to happen. If we needed a question asked and we called on a Saturday or Sunday and left a message he returned the call within 10 minutes and reassured us of our concern. We were so happy with him and his staff that we retained him to handle our bankruptcy case. I'd definitely refer Mr. Gursoy and his staff to others that are in need of an immigration attorney or bankruptcy attorney. He's very knowledgable.

I would highly recommend Mike Gursoy and his staff. From the very start they were always available to answer questions. After a year and half my case was dismissed thanks to the hard work and professionalism of Mike and his staff. They were all very knowledgeable and kind. He was easily accessible a...nd very responsive during entire process.I would like to thank Mike and his staff for all their work in resolving my case. If you need an immigration attorney who is accessible and competent Mike is your guy.
