Detailed oriented, methodical, helpful!

Attorney Sharma and his team are great people to work with. They answered all our questions related to the process very patiently. At every step of our process, they were very kind and helpful to explain the details of the process thoroughly. They were very methodical in their approach - in listing t...he checklist of documents and everything. In my opinion, I would definitely recommend Attorney Sharma for any of your future needs!

Sincere advice with depth of knowkedge

When it came to applying for Naturalization my wife decided to hire Mr. Asheesh Sharma. He did process her Permanent Redidence Card/ adnustment of Status too i 2012. She had a number of stays outside of US and one lasting more than 6 months. Aftering enquiring of the reasons of her travels, Mr. As...heesh's expert advice was to apply for Naturalization. When she got the calm for interview, Mr. Asheesh guided her properly and correctly through a mock interview session.As a result she could face the interview very confidiently and she was successfull. For last 15 years Mr. Asheesh is handling immigration matters for my daughter, my wife and myself with trust and satisfaction. He is most dependable for any immigration services.

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Be careful - Does not hesitate to create problem to the employee when employer asks him.

Did green card processing through this attorney. When leaving the company, he gave suggestion to employer not to give I140 copy even though he knew that I would require I140 copy. It is obvious that he did it intentionally to create problem to the employee.

Praveen Kumar Reddy Biyanni (kindly do not continuously update your review as this is not a channel for back and forth communication). I am sorry you feel this way. After reading your review we got in touch with our client (your employer) and they informed us that want to force/bully our client (your employer) into submission. We were told that your goal is to obtain certain privileged documents/information and to do so you are willing to go to any extremes. Additionally, you are not being honest and truthful with your review so we would like to bring few issues to your attention. Your employer (our client) informed us that you were fired for performance issue but more importantly for submitting fake resumes to clients to obtain projects. In your review you mentioned that you need a copy of your I-140, but I understand from your employer that you have blackmailed/extorted them for it by threatening them with various actions (just the way you are doing this to us) including smearing them by emailing all its employees and vendors. As their attorney, our job is to advice our client to follow the law, which we have done. Since attorney/client communication is privileged so I cannot comment on what you claim your employer told you about our advice. All I can say is that you may feel there is some conspiracy against you but let me assure you there is no such thing. We do not have any incentive in asking your employer to withhold the approval or to give it you. Since the issues between you and your employer (our client) does not involve us, we request you to take this up directly with them rather than extort them indirectly by writing false reviews about us. You untruthful reviews and bullying will not make us change our legal advice to the employer (which to begin with is privileged).

Best Legal Experience

After working with many law firms in multiple industries in the past, we’re very thrilled to say that working with Asheesh and Liliana at Sharma Law Offices has been one of the best - if not THE BEST - legal experience we’ve ever had the pleasure of receiving. Asheesh has been the only immigratio...n attorney (yes, we actually had to fire one years before) who has given us not just enough time to talk things through and understand our personal circumstances, but also gave all his attention and care while advising us as to how to proceed forward with the process. We went ahead and began the process with Sharma Law Offices to obtain my IR1 Visa. In the summer of 2016, my husband and my father-in-law rendezvoused in the area with a goal in mind of seeking out the best immigration firm we could find. We decided that we would do “walk ins” to see how we were received by doing so without any appointment. After being turned away at some agencies, passed around at other office, finally we came upon Sharma Law Offices. We walked in during normal business hours, and were very pleased at how well we were received. We were asked to sit in the conference area while we awaited Asheesh, the attorney. He joined us, and we have a pleasant thirty minute or so conversation about our situation and some questions that we had that were intended to help us feel more comfortable with the process. As expected, the process does take some time, and is inevitably quite complex. All of us involved knew well beforehand the level of stress that may occur throughout this process. Just as many families going through similar immigrant applications, we constantly had a lot of questions and concerns; things we wanted cleared up in our own minds to better rest at night. Whether we emailed or called, we were never left waiting or wondering as to what was going on and why it was going on. We always receive prompt and concise answers. I’d imagine based on our own experiences in this process, that this would be very important to people - as lack of communication can be a huge point of stress. This simply wasn’t a worry when working with Asheesh and Liliana. Our process continued from beginning to end almost verbatim as Asheesh said it would. There were some unknown unknowns that popped up along the way, but were quickly dealt with and the process continued virtually seamlessly all the way to completion. We were within our projected completion time within a few weeks - exactly as we though from the onset. All in all, we’d highly recommend this firm to anyone needing immigration services, as we’re first-hand proof of highly satisfied and thankful customers.
