A+ Service

I hired Moona to process my N400 application with the USCIS. Due to unusual backlogs at my local immigration agency, this process took over 19 months! Needless to say that during this time tensions and frustrations were running high. Moona was phenomenal in coming up with alternative plans in case t...hey were needed since I needed to travel outside the country. She is definitely not one of those money grubbing lawyers we all hear about. She suggested that I would wait and be more patient rather than immediately taking a more costly route whenever I was getting frustrated. I am definitely recommending this attorney.

Definitely the best attorney I have met.

I had the good luck that my company selected Moona to help us out with this lengthy, painful and stressful Green Card process. She is a very knowledgeable and supportive attorney that always made me feel that I was in the best hands and every time we had a stone or any bump in the road she was always... there for me and to help me stay relaxed and focused. She never gave me false hopes and was always upfront and honest along the whole process, which made me trust her and I knew she was taking care of my case and feel everything was going to be fine, and at the end it was, so we will always be thankful to her for all her support and the end result. I definitely recommend her without any hesitation.

Extremely helpful service

Moona was an outstanding attorney. She was extremely helpful - very patient and clear - and took the time to answer every question that we had during the process of applying for my wife's green card. Moona made every step easier and less complicated than they otherwise would have been. We feel very l...ucky that we had Moona to help us along the way, and I would not hesitate to recommend her to friends and family.

Attentive, smart, compassionate. Moona will be your best resource.

My spouse and I hired Moona to help us navigate the stressful USCIS paperwork for a fiancee (K1) visa. Her services were so helpful that we hired her again to help us adjust our status for a Green Card. Throughout the whole process (which took 1 year and a half), Moona was our trusted guide and ens...ured that our paperwork was 100% correct so that we did not run afoul of USCIS rules or incur months of delays/waiting. What many people do not realize when they start immigration processing for loved ones is that USCIS paperwork is very complicated. A single mistake can cost you months of waiting or a denied application. We had many questions and Moona gave us fact-driven, sensible answers (without over-promising or selling us a false sense of security). Moona knew the right way to navigate the process, and the peace of mind that we had as a result of her services was well worth the price. She helped us fill out our applications, contacted USCIS on our behalf, and was available by email to answer any other questions that we had during the process. Overall, A+++, top notch service.

Highly recommended!

My husband and I found Moona via an online search. We chose her services based on the other great reviews and we were not disappointed! Very open, honest communication and very accessible to answer questions. Would recommend to anyone looking for a reliable Immigration lawyer.
