Replied last September 22, 2024Thank you Piotr! It was definitely a long time coming but you deserve it despite the fact that you experienced that act of violence. Thank you for the review!!! Remember to stay in status and don't allow it to expire without taking action to become a Lawful Permanent Resident. You can always follow up with me for any questions you may have.

He had been to a local immigration attorney who was not up to par and did not seem to care about the case. I reached out to Latangi...

That work at Stanton was no joke! I am so happy for you and your husband; and that you all don't have to worry about his status. Thanks again and I wish you all the best!!!

Knowledgeable, Trustworthy and Caring Attorney
After discussing my case with Ms. Williams I immediately hired her to represent me in my divorce.
