Knowledgeable and Reliable Immigration lawyer

Adam Frank is an immigration lawyer I would recommend to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and honest lawyer! He has provided support to my case from the J-1 waiver to get a green card. At the first consultation, Adam exhibited a profound understanding of immigration law and a genuine commitment to my c...ase. He took the time to carefully explain the intricacies of the process, addressing all my questions with patience and clarity. He has thought strategically and has provided solutions in challenging situations for the past five years. Even after I left Maryland, he continued to work with me. He is very reliable and client-oriented. His expertise was evident as his firm navigated the complexities of immigration and legal requirements, ensuring that all documentation was meticulously prepared and submitted on time. Also, his staff was very supportive and responsive. Thanks to their dedicated efforts, my petition application was approved smoothly. I highly recommend Adam, as he is very skilled, combining legal acumen with exceptional client care!

Tale of a lawyer with very considerate heart

I was in a hurry to file the case and only 4 day left and he did everything to send to the usics within 4 days and what more I could expect. Thank you Mr. Adam. My friend recommended you for me and I will also recommend you to others for your great services.

Great immigration lawyer

Adam Frank helped us with our marriage-based green card process. The application was easy with all the information and guidance provided. Adam was always helpful and available for a call or meeting. All our email questions were answered in a very timely manner. He also helped us to reschedule our int...erview due to an emergency situation and we didn’t have to worry about it! Highly recommend his immigration services!

Excellent experience!

Hi, If you are here, you are most likely looking for a good lawyer who will bring you to your destination – your permanent residence status. Several years ago, I was one of you, sitting in front of the computer, spending days and nights looking for answers on an important question: How do I get a gre...en card? Time flies, and this year, I became a U.S. citizen, got my U.S. passport, celebrated this event with my family, and recalled how it was back in 2008. I also sent a Thank You letter to my lawyer, Adam Frank, who did a fantastic job helping me get my green card and finally to become an American. Here is my story. In 2008, I arrived in the United States from one of post-Soviet countries as a postdoc with a J-1 visa. I immediately realized that I couldn’t make big plans for my future in this country with a J-1 visa, so I started looking for a good lawyer. Initially, I was recommended to a paralegal whom I met with, but he really scared me and made me believe that it was almost impossible to get a green card in my case. He also wanted to talk with my employer, which seemed very strange, so I declined further cooperation.... I was not surprised when I discovered that he knew my employer very well, and my employer wanted to keep me on the visa as long as he could. Both of them were playing games with me. I then found a Russian-speaking lawyer who requested... 25 letters of recommendation, including some from Nobel Prize winners or their co-workers! He also requested I pay the entire fee in advance at the time of signing the contract. I wasn’t encouraged to work with this guy either. Finally, one of my friends recommended Adam Frank, a Maryland lawyer who helped her and her friend receive green cards without any problems. She also explained to me that in her case, everything worked out perfectly through the Internet (we lived in the Southwest at that time), and there was no need to meet him in person. I sent him my CV, and he answered with a clear roadmap for what to do next. It was a very professional plan with reasonable financial conditions. Several months later, I sent the documents that he had requested, and we submitted my application. Four weeks after that, I received an approval. It was like magic. After helping me, Adam and his colleagues helped get green cards for several of my friends, including a man whose application was initially declined by USCIS. There are 3 unique things about Adam Frank that I have learned from my experience and from the experiences of my friends and colleagues whom I referred to him: 1. Upon reviewing your CV, he can clearly say if a green card is approvable or not. If he says “yes” then there is a 99% chance you will get approved; or if not, he will tell you what needs to be fixed. This is golden. 2. He can represent your accomplishments in the most efficient way. In my case, he used all my achievements from my home country to get both EB1 and EB2 approved! My friend received a green card having published a few PubMed publications. It is an art! 3. The third is financial immaculacy. AF doesn’t try to scam you out of money – he just does his job, which requires reasonable payment. This is unique for a lawyer. My visa status has changed my life, and my professional career is advancing. I would like to use this opportunity to express my deep gratitude to Adam Frank and his team for the excellent work they did for me. Good luck everyone! I hope in 8-10 years, when you receive your blue passport, you will recall this review and send a Thank You letter to Adam Frank.
