Very knowledgeable, speaks multiple languages fluently, has your back
I have worked with Mr. Oleg Gherasimov and it was a straightforward experience form the get go. Very pleased with his services and you can always reach him fast if needed, also the pricing for the services he provides are very competitive. He is very knowledgeable, speaks multiple languages fluently, he has a deep understanding of Immigration laws and procedures. When you hire Mr. Oleg Gherasimov, you know somebody has your back and will keep you updated and in the know. I recommend his services 100%. He even offers to go with you to your immigration interviews if needed or if that makes you feel better about your situation. Make the right call and pick his services, it's worth it!

Successful result for a new citizen!
Mr Gherasimov provided services that enabled my Mother-in-law to obtain her citizenship. After many years of frustration in working with agencies and others in order to finish, Mr Gherasimov was finally able to do what others had not- cut thru the bureaucratic red tape and explain and finish how this could be done. His advice was very informative, direct, and most importantly- correct. My mother-in-law successfully obtained her authorization to become a citizen in just a few weeks! Thank you to Mr. Gherasimov and his firm! Outstanding service and advice!

Thank you !
Oleg helped me and my family with our application for naturalization. Right from day one he and his team have been super proactive in sending and reviewing documents, following up, answering questions, providing information and submission of our applications to the agency. The forms were prepared by his team were spot on. The information was 100% accurate. At every step during this process, Oleg and his team provided constant updates way before official documentation was received. We are thrilled that Oleg assisted us with this process. Our applications were just approved and we could not thank Oleg and his team enough. I cannot say enough good things about Oleg and his team. If you have an immigration matter, I recommend that you contact Oleg without any hesitation.

N400 application
Mr Oleg is knowledgeable, intelligent, confident, and passionate about the client cases. Mr Oleg is the best immigration law attorney; from our first meeting, he explained everything to me in terms I could easily understand, and he was always very responsive whenever I had questions. Mr Oleg took the time to hear all of my concerns. He also concisely outlined all the different courses of action about the My N400 and N648 form, including the positives and negatives of each choices. He understood my position and limitations and worked really hard on my case. All the immigration process from the beginning till the end goes very smooth.
