I am an immigration attorney and an immigrant who knows what it's like to navigate the comlex maze of immigration law and administrative agencies. I have been a non-immigrant, Lawful Permanent Resident and now am a naturalized US Citizen and have sponsored family members and employees. Having gone through the process helps me relate to my clients and better address their concerns. I am fluent in French, English and Spanish (our office has staff that speaks Korean and Urdu) and look forward to helping you find a solution to your immigration problem.

Excellent!
At this point, I have been working with Xavier and his team for several years. They took care of my H1-B application as well as my Immigration/Green Card application after I got married. Xavier is simply a great lawyer to work with!
"I highly endorse this lawyer. Xavier is a leader in the Immigration Law Community. He is passionate about the representation of his clients and is very well versed in the complexities of Immigration Law. He is an attorney that other lawyers, including myself, go to for advice on highly complex issues in immigration law."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have seen his written work and he does an excellent job. I have also seen him in Court and he is well respected by the Judges and DHS attorneys alike."
"Xavier takes a people first approach in all of his cases, going out of his way to make his clients feel stress-free and confident."
"Xavier (or the Professor) is an incredibly knowledgeable and skillful lawyer. He succeeds where most lawyers cannot. One of best, no doubt."
"I highly recommend Mr. Racine on Immigration matters. He works extremely hard to obtain a good result for his clients. Whenever we have a client in common he makes sure that I am aware of what result would adversely affect our client on his/her immigration case. If I ever have a question on Immigration law, I know he will have an answer."
"This may be the best immigration attorney in the United States. There are few who are as well prepared, and his presence in court is superlative."
