Often, cases locked in administrative processing could remain pending for months, if not years. I have experience in forcing resolution through litigation in the US. District court, often through mandamus filings.

Hearing that your immigration application was refused is devastating news. I am experienced in reviewing the reasons for denial, determining the best course of action and probability of success, and if warranted, I can assist you through an appeal.

The BEST Lawyer EVER

For the past 18 years I have been trying to bring my wife the this country, I have hired several lawyers, most of them are Big names in the business, spend a lot of money and all of them failed. Finally I went to James Robert, he is kind, passionate, considerate, and very professional, and finally my... wife was able to come over and my family is finally complete. Mr. Robert did an amazing job that my dream finally came true. A Million Thanks to you!!!

Excellent lawyer in town

I have known James Roberts for several years now. James Roberts is an excellent immigration lawyer in town. He is extremely knowledgeable and able to handle a very complex immigration case. James helped us resolve an extremely complex and old immigration case. Many thanks! I also referred to him sev...eral cases over the years, including family members and close friends, and he successfully handled all the cases. I strongly recommend James Roberts for immigration cases. On the opportunity side, the office manager is not easy to deal with. We did not have good experience dealing with her. Whenever we had to deal with her, we faced lots of stress. That is an opportunity for improvement. It is understandable people progress with experience and feedback. It is my hope that she may have improved by now.
