Highly Recommend!

Mr. Khurana has worked on all of my H1B applications + EB2 GC and the outcomes for all of them were successful. He is highly knowledgable in this field and always available to clarify any concerns. He was very diligent about keeping my employer updated regularly throughout the process and I would cer...tainly recommend him to anyone looking for an immigration lawyer of high calibre.

5 Year Bar Removed and Successfully received the B1 Visa

I would highly recommend Attorney Khurana and his Law firm to anyone who is looking for a solution for your immigration problems. Attorney Khurana is the best lawyer whom i can recommend to anyone in the world. His immense and in depth knowledge in immigration law helps everyone to resolve their prob...lems and be successful in their case. Attorney Khurana helped me to rescind the 5 year bar and successfully received the B1 visa last month. Today i am in USA it is just because of Attorney Khurana and his highly skilled knowledge in the immigration law. I would like to say a huge thanks to Attorney Khurana and his staffs who helped me to overcome the huge barrier by removing the 5 year bar and got the B1 visa in no time. He is very patience and highly responsive and always considers every client case as his own and give 100% effort and attention to all his clients. I would highly recommend Attorney Khurana to everyone who seeks the true and genuine lawyer for their immigration problems. His honesty and straight forward response is something i would say is the best quality that i have seen in Attorney Khurana.

Excellent Immigration Lawyer!

Mr. Khurana has worked on my H1B and EB2 GC applications this summer and both have had successful outcomes. He is very diligent in his approach and ensures regular updates to the employer throughout the process. He is always available to personally clarify any questions or concerns and is very knowle...dgeable in the immigration field. I would certainly recommend him to anyone looking for sound immigration advice and help on putting together high quality immigration application packages.

Perfection, Quality and On-time are the best 3 qualities of Ramesh Khurana

Initially my friend referred me to consult for my GC case. Meanwhile, I lost job and afraid of going out of status. Ramesh stood up for us at each and every step to complete paper work for B2, GC process. He is best at understanding what USCIS wants from you and always work on time. Many times he p...repared documents before I submitted documents from my side. He worked on Friday evening for my case so we can file on Monday morning.(Usually that's not most of the lawyers do) He gives personal touch to your case.

Excellent- result oriented empathetic law firm.

I’ve learned it is quite a challenging task to write in words an adequate review of Mr Khurana’s services that would do justice to his role in my professional life, here’s why. I first engaged Mr Khurana when my H1B petition filed through the industry leader- highly reputable law firm was denied, t...heir lack of transparency, professionalism had disappointed me an I was very wary. From day 0, Mr Khurana was honest, direct and clear with his communication and realistic in his approach in setting expectations (immigration issues are stressful and I realized then how much value add a lawyer who would be straight with me was). His communication and follow up was excellent not only with me but my org’s HR department, which is key to a smooth application process. In the following months, he worked diligently and transparently to put together a strong H1B petition for my highly unique and specialized non profit H1B petition, he used not only what the organization sent him but helped us realize hidden nuggets of value in our petition that answered every question that USCIS could raise. I was honestly surprised to experience a lawyer who was actually listening and hearing us and not dismissing us- something the previous firm did. His approach is to address everything that can go wrong ASAP and minimize risk and surprises- who can argue with that approach? He was always available for a call/questions or my last-minute panic attacks and never gave me ambiguous or confusing information. I always felt better after every meeting with him, confident that my case is in good hands, which was confirmed. I got my visa. Throughout the time we worked on the case, Mr Khurana encouraged me and supported me at every turn. Many times, he was my professional confidant, helping me manage the highly complicated relationship with my managers, HR Department requirements and support for the visa. All those awkward conversations were made easier, my org decided to hire his as our primary legal counsel for immigration issues here onwards. . I can easily say, that if my path did not cross Khurana’s and I didn’t follow up on my friend’s suggestion to call him; my life would be significantly different today. I am ever grateful and highly recommend his services.
