Sharon L. Ames

Sharon worked with me and my wife all the way from our journey from Germany to the USA, through our marriage, my wife's permanent resident application, and finally my wife's US citizenship. She has been wonderful throughout the entire process, answering all of our questions and helping us navigate t...he sometimes complicated immigration and naturalization laws. Thanks to Sharon's knowledge and experience my wife received her permanent resident status in less than 3 months from the time of application. Most recently, she helped us immensely during my recent deployment overseas with the finalization of my wife's N400 application and her interview. Now my wife is a US citizen! Sharon knows what she is doing and thanks to her the whole process felt almost effortless.

Our company engaged Ms. Ames to help us apply for US work visas, specifically an H1B for one of our Canadian sales managers and an L1A for myself, the company's President (also Canadian). Ms. Ames helped us to understand the various categories of visa that we could consider for each candidate and hel...ped us to choose the most appropriate categories. The application processes were long and very detailed. In both instances there were also RFEs (requests for further evidence) and again Ms. Ames helped us understand the process and worked patiently with members of our team to draw out and assemble the data required to satisfy the requests. Even now, as our company expands and our manager moves across the US opening new operations for us, Ms. Ames stays on top of us to ensure we file the appropriate amendments and forms to maintain compliance with the requirements of his visa. Ms. Ames' fees were very fair and despite the fact that we were hundreds of KMs (CDN version of miles!) away we always felt that our interests were extremely well represented and that we could have absolute trust in Ms. Ames advice and integrity. Finally, I should mention that Ms. Ames is a real pleasure to work with and someone we are pleased to have met and hope to continue to have a relationship with. We have worked with many lawyers and I have enjoyed working with Ms. Ames more than any other lawyer who has represented us. I would recommend Ms. Ames to any friend, family member or business associate without equivocation.
