Worth every cent

We hired Evan Shane's office for the green card application for one of us. The office charges a flat fee and handled everything for us and kept us duly informed of all steps to be taken. Less than four months later we were invited for our interview. Evan gave us an extensive list of documents to com...pile and surely thanks to same the interview was more or less a pro forma and very short conversation after which we were secured of the green card. We definitely recommend hiring Evan and partners for any immigration issues you may have.

Fabulous Attorney and Firm!

Our family recently worked with Evan Shane and his law firm regarding obtaining Permanent Resident Status. Evan's professionalism, expertise and guidance, along with the assistance of his entire firm resulted in gaining Permanent Resident Status for a dear one much quicker than expected. He was wit...h us every step of the way. No attorney or firm could have done more for our family than Evan Shane. We are forever grateful!

Committed Attorney who cares. If he cant do it, it cant be done!

It has been a long road from beginning to the end but Evan and his staff were amazing. My immigration case was very difficult, but from the beginning Evan was very honest and forthright about the potential outcomes. Due to his many positive attributes, I trusted that with him as my lawyer i would hav...e a positive outcome and i did. Evan is very knowledgeable about immigration law and is willing to do the research that it sometimes takes to defend or represent his client. Evan showed great perseverance throughout the time my case was pending and always kept me informed every step of the way. The most important attribute that Evan possesses is that he cares, he not only cares about the outcome he actually cares about his clients. He knows the importance of his work and how it affects lives, and his commitment to his work shows that. I would recommend Evan to anyone who needs an immigration lawyer. I truly believe that if he cant do, it it cant be done. No one works harder, is more knowledgeable, smarter and cares more.

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.
