Ms

If you are the kind of person who believes in reviews,look no further, just hire or consult with Mr.Eric Singer. Being one of those who believes in reviews, I just read about his profile online and I knew he was the right person to work with and trust me Am so happy I made this decision. Eric has not... disappointed me at all, he has been so dedicated to my case, he will follow up, he will brings all the possible options on the table,write to particular offices he thinks can help my case and also consult whoever is needed to make sure all resources are looked into. He made my case look easy because I never stressed about anything at all and we never missed any documents during all the submissions. Am a single mother of a special needs child and Eric made sure that my daughter joins me as soon as possible and as Am writing this, my daughter joined me last weekend. I will definitely recommend him to whoever needs his services because I have never seen anyone as committed to his/her work as Mr. Eric Singer.He is too good to be true and trust me I can work with him over again. For any immigration question you have, he has the answers. Thank you so much Mr. Eric Singer.

Eric is the best!

Eric is so professional and kind. He is very attentive to the needs of his clients and provides them with the best solutions based on his experience. There is a fiduciary element to his recommendations; he puts his clients' interests first, protects their interests, provides fair evaluations, not to ...maximize his profits. You should hire him! You can trust the positive reviews. In the DMV area, he offers the best value and quality. Without his assistance, I would not have been able to complete this journey so early. All of the predictions he made have come true, including the timeline and the interview procedures in Fairfax. There is no one better than Eric! I am so fortunate to have Eric as my immigration attorney. Eric, thank you so much!

Green Card approval

Eric Singer has changed my life in ways that words cannot begin to describe. He took my case and to say it was an uphill battle from the begging is an understatement. Eric also sets realistic expectations, he describes the complexity of the case, his approach and different path going forward dependin...g on the outcome. His prices are amongst the fairest in the field, his ability to work with Clients with financial constraints compares to none. I paid the deposit, set up monthly payments and believe it or not, he started on my case the very next morning. My case went through so many Immigration Court in Virginia, USCIS matters in Baltimore and Florida, he was there every step of the way. The scope of the work we covered is rather sweeping: litigating and succeeding in vacating the absentia order of removal, understanding and undoing the damage done by two prior attorneys, getting removal proceeding dismissed, getting the I-130 approved and interview prepping. I am now a legal permanent resident of the United States ( feels so good to say that) and none of it would have been possible without Eric Singer
