Amazing experience having Sasha Westerman-Keuning working on our marriage-based green card case

Since 2021 Sasha and her team have been working with my wife and myself to assist with our LGBTQ immigration law matters. I would recommend whole heartedly to anyone seeking immigration or green card advice. The care, attention, and personalized assistance is both helpful and effective. Worth every p...enny to have an expert by your side during what can be a stressful endeavor. Thank you to Sasha, and the Rostova Westerman Law Group.

Highly recommended! Her experience and knowledge made her our clear choice!!

Sasha and her team have been invaluable throughout the immigration process! The plethora of steps, forms, government agencies involved in the immigration process seemed very daunting. Thankfully, having Sasha by our side, meant that we knew we were in good hands, and all we had to do was provide d...ocumentation at various stages of the process. We are an LGBTQIA+ couple and wanted an immigration attorney with relevant experience, and right from the initial consultation, we knew Sasha clearly has the needed experience and knowledge to guide us through the process from start to finish. She would always notify us ahead of time to let us know what information she needed from us, so that the entire process was as streamlined as possible. Sasha was always available when we had questions (both via email, as well as over the occasional video call). I can't thank her enough for all the hard work she and her team have done for us!

Wow Service!!!

Sasha and her team did an excellent, efficient service with my immigration case (green card). She explained the process precisely with regards to my case and the same result what we got until the day I received my green card. We are very happy for her excellent service handling my immigration case, h...er staff providing the support/help needed - Sasha is very easy to work with - who is consistently providing professional service, well detailed, very supportive/caring person. All inquiries are provided with a quick, concrete responses with regards to my case. We selected Sasha because one of her expertise is the LGBT immigration cases - the support and love she put into the community of LGBT is truly inspiring. We highly recommend Sasha's service for your immigration process. Kudos to the Team!! Again, Thank you Sasha, Myriam & Francisco from our bottom of our hearts.

Sasha is purely amazing!

Sasha is professional. She cares about immigrants. She supports minorities, such as LGBTQ community. She always replies emails promptly with direct and clear answers. To me, she is not just an amazing lawyer, but also a great loving person.

Amazing Immigration Attorney who takes down walls!

We retained Sasha to represent my husband and I from his K1 Fiancé Visa through his Green Card. My husband is from Brazil. From the very first consultation I could see how dedicated, determined and passionate Sasha was about immigration and helping couples and families realize their dreams. We cho...se Sasha because of her expertise in LGBT cases and her passion for immigration law. Sasha takes time to thoroughly explain the process and what to expect easing anxiety and painting a realistic picture of what to expect. She is very responsive to questions or concerns as they come up. My husband’s file prepared by Sasha was so thorough and complete and we were so well prepared and informed that our green card interview was simple, effortless and went as smooth as we could have hoped for and of course, successful! We are forever grateful to Sasha and her amazing staff of legal professionals for making our dreams come true and highly recommend her and her team for your immigration needs.

"I endorse this lawyer. Endorsing this lawyer is an easy task and it's not only because she is Board Certified by the Bar in immigration. More importantly, Sasha is very passionate, heavily involved, and always passionate about her Clients and immigration law in general. The nature of immigration law is that it is a protean area of the law due to fact it touches many areas of law: State/Federal/Admin. (both state and federal)/ and its own particular substantive area of law. Sasha who has an ubiquitous online presence is ideal for this practice as she is always up to date and ready to go."
