I cannot speak highly enough!

Both Evan Shane and his father are a pleasure to work with; Professional, friendly and extremely helpful, always willing to go the extra mile for their clients. My only regret is that I didn't find them earlier. After several years of trying to navigate the immigration system alone (and failing spect...acularly!), Evan said 'leave everything to me and stop worrying'. Mr Shane helped me compile such an air-tight evidence file that USCIS didn't even request an additional interview - my Green Card arrived last week, a month earlier than expected, and I couldn't be more thrilled!

Evan Shane...."Simply The Best"!

As a post D.O.M.A. immigration applicant in mid 2013, my husband and I thought it best to file with the assistance of an immigration lawyer. We spent weeks doing extensive research online before deciding on the services of Shane, Shane & Brauerman. I was very impressed with Michael Shane who condu...cted the initial interview, but then was absolutely “blown away” by his son Evan who personally handled my case. After the very first meeting with Evan, my husband and I knew we had made the best decision. Evan and his staff were extremely professional, kind and warm as they kept us closely informed during each and every step. Special thanks to Maria and Cassandra with whose help, a “famously” detailed and complicated immigration filing process was made smooth and effortless. The anticipation of an immigration interview is a feeling impossible to describe. However, with Evan by our side my husband and I walked into the interview with great confidence. An unforeseen complication arose during my initial I.N.S. interview. What we thought would have been a straight forward, “open and shut” case from filing through interview hit a “terrifying” bump. While I spent weeks literally falling apart, Evan made my success his personal mission. He became increasingly pro-active and did not miss a beat! All while consistently keeping us informed. Ultimately, Evan’s thorough knowledge of U.S. immigration law, experience and incredible tenacity prevailed and today my husband and I are enjoying my new status. Our sincere gratitude to Evan and everyone else at Shane, Shane & Brauerman.

The very best attorney!

When we hired Evan Shane a couple of months ago, we not only felt comfortable, but also that we were finally in good hands. After years of wasting thousands of dollars and going through multiple attorneys with no positive results, Evan with his professionalism and knowledge, finally helped us secure ...a green card. We honestly cannot put into words how we feel about Evan and his superb law firm. They communicated quickly every step of the way and really made us feel like they cared. From the preparation meetings for our interview, right through to the actual day, Evan was by our side. Not once did we feel like Evan was getting annoyed with all of our questions and of course emotions. Even when the tears flowed after our successful interview, Evan was right there hugging and congratulating us. We would highly recommend Evan for any immigration need. He is absolutely outstanding and if you're looking for an attorney, don't go anywhere else! Evan is worth every penny!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
