Extention of Visa

My husband was at the hospital suffering a major stroke and we needed to extend his Visa as he is not a US citizen, He could not fly as it was dangerous for his health. We were extremely traumatized and someone Suggested Tejal, and believe me it was a blessing. She handled the whole issue so professi...onally and efficiently that I did not have to worry about it any more. I could just concentrate on husband's recovery.

Honest and Reasonbly Priced

When I decided to obtain a new will, I turned to Ms. Tejal Mehta.  I was hoping to have the matter accomplished quickly, as I was planning to be on vacation out of the country very soon.  I knew that it was important to have my personal affairs in place while traveling away from home, in case of an e...mergency.  Prior to our meeting, Ms. Mehta gave us a step by step guide to organize my personal and financial matters.  This helped me to have everything ready for consideration. Plus gathering all of my important documents in one place will help my family deal with my estate matters easily, which is a relief to me.  Then, at our first meeting, Ms. Mehta discussed with my husband and I our particular estate planning goals and concerns to ensure that our estate plans reflected what was important to us.  As a result, we are very satisfied with the estate plans Ms. Mehta created for us. Also, Ms. Mehta is a quick communicator, always answering my questions promptly and explaining legal terms that I didn’t understand.  She made everything clear.  I trusted her input and was happy to have her expertise.  Choosing who helps you with such a serious and important matter makes all the difference. I recommended her to several of my family members who also used her practice for estate planning. Ms. Mehta is honest and reasonably priced too.

Strong positive experience - Marriage-based Adjustment of Status

My wife and I were looking for an attorney to assist us with our adjustment of status filing, and after spending many months working with Tejal we can confidently say our overall experience was very positive and we recommend her. Our case was fairly straightforward; we married after being together f...or several years, and at the time of our marriage one of us was a US Citizen. Selection: We chose to work with Tejal after conducting an extensive online and in-person search and after interviewing her to learn whether she was a good fit for our needs. We chose her for two reasons: 1) her primary experience is in immigration and adjustment of status cases, and 2) she was very pleasant to work with when we interviewed her. Initial work: Tejal discussed our background and this understanding to produce a "homework" list of questions for us to answer and documents that we needed to provide. Tejal's questions were entirely relevant, on-point, and very efficient. Tejal gave us clear direction around the type of information we needed to provide and throughout this process was very responsive to our questions (via phone and email). We also stopped by her office several times to review our progress on our "homework" with her, obtain additional guidance, and verify that we were moving in the right direction. It was easy to schedule time to meet with her, she was very open and accommodating, and she did not charge us additional fees for this guidance. Medical exam: USCIS requires the beneficiary in a marriage-based adjustment of status case to complete a medical examination and prove that they have current vaccines. We did not have copies of our medical histories, and Tejal helped us connect with a doctor in the area who was able to perform the required bloodwork, provide / update any vaccines that were missing or needed a booster, and complete the medical examination paperwork that USCIS required. Submission of package: After all of our "homework" was complete and all required evidence had been gathered, we provided everything to Tejal in a well-organized package and she prepared the final package that we would submit. This package included all required documentation, evidence, and paperwork for our adjustment of status, advance parole, and EAD. Tejal did an outstanding job organizing everything into a logical, easy-to-understand package, and prepared all necessary paperwork for us. She walked us through each document, showed us how it related to the other documents in the package, and provided clear, easy-to-understand guidance through this entire meeting. We can state with confidence that Tejal saved us days or weeks of work and headaches by doing this. After we had reviewed and signed everything Tejal packaged and submitted it to USCIS on our behalf. She also provided us with a scanned digital copy of the entire submission for our records. Change of address: We moved into a new home a few months after we submitted our package to USCIS. When this happened, we informed Tejal of our new address and she took care of filing the appropriate paperwork with USCIS for us. We received a confirmation letter from USCIS a few days later. USCIS interview: Tejal provided guidance around what to bring to our USCIS interview, what questions to expect, and how to handle the interview generally. She will attend the interview with her clients for an additional fee if they request it, but she advised us that our case was very straightforward and there was no real reason for us to pay for her to do so. This advice was correct and consistent with our interview experience. Working with Tejal in the future: We recommend Tejal very strongly. We must file to convert our conditional permanent residency to permanent residency in about two years because we were married for less than one year when we obtained permanent residence; we will work with Tejal to do so.
