h1b questions

I had some questions related to H1B and Rahim provided excellent face to face personalized consultation. He was very fast setting up an appointment and saw me on the same day. I would recommend him strongly as one of the best Attorney's in Atlanta.

H-1B Visa and General Immigration Counsel

Though I already had a reknowned immigration lawyer that I trusted immensely, the new firm hiring me wanted to use a local attorney. Deferring to the firm's preference, Rahim proved to be impressive in short order. He has provided the necessary clarity, has always been very responsive to queries, and... showed great care throughout the process. His conduct has always been exceptionally professional, and he has shown flexibility and provided carefully considered insight and advisement. I highly recommend his firm, and will certainly use them again.

Residency/Immigration Processing

Found Rahim through a personal recommendation and glad we used his services. He came across as level headed, responsive and knowledgeable ; I would definitely hire his firm in the future and recommend to friends.

Immigration from the U.K.

In 2011 I met the love of my life and it wasn't long before we were discussing marriage. For us the issue was which country would we live in the U.S. or the U.K. ? Because I have a well established business it was clear that my future wife would have to move here to the U.S.. I started my research... for an immigration lawyer in the summer of 2012 and found the Dhanani law firm in Atlanta Ga.. I called and set up an appointment to meet with Mr. Dahanani to discuss the possibilities of immigration. I was very impressed with Mr. dhanani"s commitment and passion for his business and hired his services shortly there after. Having been in law enforcement I knew it would be very important to have a committed and knowledgeable lawyer to represent us...I could have never been more correct! My wife and I were married in the winter of 2012 and within a short time Mr. Dhanani started the immigration process for us. What impressed me the most with Mr. Dhanani was his VERY quick response time to any questions we had during this extremely stressful process. I have never had the opportunity to work with a more dedicated and committed lawyer than Mr. Dhanani. I can say without Mr. Dhanani"s knowledge and dedication to his client it would be very doubtful that we would have been successful in our immigration. Recently my wife was granted her visa and will be here for Christmas. Thanks again Rahim for all your help. Sincerely, T.W. Scoggin
