excellent

I found Mr. Singer through reviews on the internet and went to see him with my sister. He takes his time to explain everything in great detail. We were very happy with the results. He's been my go-to lawyer ever since. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for assistance with immagration.

My husband and I are so grateful for all the help we received from our lawyer

Eric has been tremendously supportive throughout the whole process of my immigration visa application.He would always provide the right advice and respond to our emails ASAP. He was always there to check and make sure all the paperwork are correctly done. I really appreciated his professionalism and ...we were very pleased to get to meet him and happy that we made the right decision by choosing him as our lawyer. May God continue to bless him.

Awesome lawyer that helped us with our case

Eric Singer was able to help us with what seems to me - a complicated case. I had an I751 and N400 that were both denied in the same time, I wasn't sure what's going on and how to approach the issue. I met with Eric, he listened carefully, draw the entire timeline & order of events on a board, then e...xplained what's going on. After discussing options, he wrote very good professional letters and attach them to the applications. Soon after that, we got the situation fixed. Highly recommended, his rate are very reasonable and he has a lot of experience in the field.

Best immigration attorney

I did not receive my N400 Oath letter even after almost 9 months of N400 interview. I found Mr. Singer's details on avvo and yelp. After just talking to him over the phone, I immediately hired him for my case and that was the best decision. Mr. Singer is very patient and give lot of time and very ...responsive. Mr. Singer understood my case in detail. He wrote a letter to USCIS and within 2 weeks, I got my oath letter.

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
