Ghassan Marwan Shihab

Ghassan Shihab is a very experienced, well educated attorney ever. He is the most compassionate attorney I've ever worked with. He thoroughly reviewed my case, made an excellent analysis of it and communicated his professional opinion clearly and promptly. He also was present during the interview for... my and my two children's interviews. Our cases were approved LITERALLY the next day. I love his team's excellent customer service; whenever I went to their office, I felt I was in good hands. I highly recommend Ghassan Shihab as an attorney to anyone.

Time to time one gets hit with something so unexpected that you get disoriented in life. Well that happened with me a month ago when after waiting over a decade for my GC (EB2, PD May 1 2009), my 485 was denied (due to USCIS Clerical error in not processing my submitted medicals I 693 correctly) and... I lost my status immediately putting tremendous amount of peril not only for me but also for my family. My employment was in peril, my daughter who is in B-school was in peril, my wife job was in peril, we were facing a dire situatino to leave the country in short order (to where exactly not sure.. ). After building your life here for 15 years..this is earth shattering. What I needed at that moment was not just a lawyer, but an experienced lawyer who knows the law of the land, who can try different options in real time, a great human being who understands and cares enough to make all attempts to understand the emotional status we are in, a consel who is not afraid to speak the truth to me in terms of what is possible and what is not and a professional who can take a negative feedback in the right spirit to course correct while pushing back on things that does not make sense. Gus is all of above and more! He knows his stuff, he cares enough to help his clients and you are in GOOD HANDS when he is helping you. What he really did? Day 0: I 485 Denial letter Day 1: First offering me counsel that not to worry we can figure this out but first come first need to get some pretty critical things out of the way (My daughter was fying into the country on that same day and her status was not suspect given this). He helped navigate and succcesfully get her in Day 1-10: Constant counselling on what I should do.. reach out to Congressman, senator, ombudsman, prepare a ground swell, thinking through options and putting together the motion to reconsider Day 10: Filed motion to reconsider (I-290B)done with all paper work and supporting evidence Day 15: Got receipt that our motion was recvd Day 16: Applied for H1 extension to get me back in status Day 17: Started planning for what is next steps if H1 does not go through.. Table top thinking exercise on O1 possibility or how to reapply I485 given the constraints we have, what i need to do for my daughter who is school - maybe F1. Day 20: Recvd USCIS notificaton that our motion was approved Day 21: Our I485 Approved!! Day 30: All our GCs in hand!! BOOM :-) Day 32: Withdraw our H1 application! In between all this myriad phone calls, text messages and what not!.. THANK YOU GUS! You are our life saver, a good man and a good friend Bala

Mr. Shihab is awesome! He is very knowledgeable and professional on my citizenship application. Some lawyers are not very responsive in my past experience but Mr. Shihab always responses to my question timely, and he takes every client seriously. I was very worried about getting denied due to other c...ase involved, and all the changes and discussions on immigration law recently. He laid out all the possibilities might come to my case and helped me practice the interview many times. My citizenship application and case went very smoothly with Mr. Shihab's legal advice and service.

Attorney  Gus Shihab and his team helped me on my complicated waiver case where I was in an extremely hard position. Mr. Shihab has gone above and beyond anything, I could've wished from an attorney. He's made sure that everything has been done with precision, has taken much burden off my shoulders,... and been a comfort during this difficult time. He's the best immigration attorney that I have seen, and I can't stress this enough. His staff is also very caring and helpful and right on task. I got my green card home without even being interviewed, which is amazing ,please hire him you will not regret

Gus represented us for adjustment of status case. He was always very courteous and helped us understand exactly what we needed to file for our adjustment of status. He provided excellent legal advice and made sure I knew about every possible outcome with regards to visa statuses, work authorizations ...etc. before and after the filling. Having him with us at our interview certainly gave us a lot of confidence and he made sure we were relaxed and prepared for the interview. I highly recommend Gus and his team for all your immigration needs. He will work hard and make sure you get the desired result while treating you very well throughout the whole process.
