Great service

I don't know where to start. The service, the support and the strength provided by Attorney Sacha was outstanding through the entire process. He is very patient, cooperative and detail-oriented. In addition he explained the situation very clearly also he has provided up-to-date immigration informa...tion, replied email earliest possible time. I would highly recommend him.

A professional and amazing help to us

Mr. Shaygan has been a wonderful help to our family. He takes his work very professionally and is always willing to answer any concerns we have. He aided us in full process of our daughter's DACA and has been a great success. Mr. Shaygan even aided our daughter in her application to the Harvard Summe...r Program she will attend this year. We do not know what we could have done without him. He has made all of our application processes much easier and walked us through each step and made sure we fully understood what things meant.

Such a professional experience

I have to say that it truly is quite daunting doing any kind of paperwork, but my immigration procedure was extremely smooth and rather efficient. Sacha is wonderfully patient with a knowledgeable team working with him. This process was painless and professionally handled and I would advise anyone wh...o needs to do their immigration papers to immediately contact Shaygan and Legal as they make this process with no stress to you. Thank you again Sacha for your advice and professionalism throughout this whole process. Also thank you to Cassidy who has extremely calming and helpful always. I will always be passing on your details to anyone who needs your service.

Prompt, effective legal service

I previously consulted with Sacha on an immigration matter, but he more recently helped me apply for a green card for my spouse. Sacha was very thorough, taking the time to talk through the issues with me during our initial consultation and in reviewing my application materials. He created an easy-...to-follow list of next steps and promptly responded to all of my follow-up questions. I was very impressed with his services and plan to refer any future immigration issues to him. I recommend him to anyone requiring assistance with immigration matters.

From my personal experience, I appreciate how Sacha takes his time to explain the details of relevant legal issues; he never rushes, as many lawyers do, and he is very accommodating in scheduling calls and meetings with clients.
