Thanks for your support Kathryn! If I am tough on documents, its because I know how important it is to you and your family that your immigration case is successful.
"Mr. Glinsmann acted as the AILA liaison to the NBC on behalf of my law firm in a very complex immigration matter implicating the Child Status Protection Act. Mr. Glinsmann spent many hours conferring with the Lead Attorney at our office, Alexander V. Bibicheff, and speaking with the Immigration Services Officer at the NBC. Thanks to Mr. Glinsmann's extraordinary efforts, we received results far beyond expectations."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. Matthew worked quickly and efficiently with me, on a pro bono basis, to help to resolve a difficult situation with immigration officials. He got everything done in less than 48 hours! He saved my client a considerable amount of money and saved me a lot of time. He knows how to work through red tape!"
