Excellent lawyer!

My husband and I hired Shanna to handle my immigration case. I required an Adjustment of Status through Marriage, after being on an H1B Visa for three years. From the moment we met her, Shanna showed us she was extremely familiar with similar cases; she informed us about every single step involved in... the process from the start. She was easy to reach whenever we had a question, and always kept us informed; she also prepared us for our interview with the immigration authorities. The process was completed in a timely manner and we are completely satisfied with her service as our lawyer. We would highly recommend her.

She is a GREAT attorney!!!!!

I received my green card very recently and it took only a little more than 3 months. Shanna is professional, knowledgeable, responsive & accurate. She prepared all of my documents and checked them all very carefully. I felt very comfortable with her during my immigration process even though I di...dn't have some of the documents that are common. Shanna handled everything so easily. She knew the way perfectly and explained everything to me with care and kindness. I am so satisfied with her work and really appreciate her expertise and diligence.

I started working with Shanna Stanton about 3 years ago and I wasn't dissapointed. She helped me with the green card application and accompanied me to the interview. My case wasn't usual - my husband wasn't able to attend the interview with me. Shanna had a solution for this unusuall problem and she ...was wonderful representing me and my husband. She is a very knowledgeable, professional and trustworthy lawyer. She was very quick to respond if I had any questios and kept me updated with my case status. I would definitely recomend Shanna Stanton to anybody with immigration issues.

Got my green card in 5 months!

My husband (US citizen) and me (F-1 visa holder) applied for my green card on May 2012. We had a consultation with Shanna to go over the application process and expectations. She took the time to revise our forms and documents, and organized our application. At all times she was very professional, ef...ficient and knowledgeable on the green card process. While the application was in process I contacted her several times to go over my paperwork. working permit and advance parole notices. She responded immediately and was always very professional. I got my green card without delays or problems on September 2012. I already recommended Shanna to 2 of my closest friends. She is an excellent lawyer and I recommend her without hesitations.
