Positive, Professional and Quality Service!

It was a wonderful experience working with Atty. Ryan and his staff Miss. Nancy Cuz! Great Firm! I would recommend to anyone in such of professional service. My wife and I weren't just treated as clients, but family and indeed we felt the value and respect given us. Moreover, the entire process from ...start to finish was transparent, less stressful, and filled with positivity. I got my green card in time and I have been nothing but impressed with the quality and value of the service provided us at this Firm!! You want quality service: Go there You want reasonable service: Go there You want moderate payment arrangements: Go there Honestly, integrity, professionalism and positivity is the haul mark of this firm!!

Amazing guy to work with

Ryan is a gem of a person to work with. Ryan had come to my help twice for immigration related matters. I had a complicated immigration case to handle and I requested Ryan's help to send a response for immigration RFE for my OPT in 2018. Ryan took a reasonable flat rate to prepare a response with all... the documents that was very convincing to the officers. I got my case approved the next day. Earlier this year in 2019, I again retained Ryan to help with my Green card AOS application and he broke down and explained to me the entire process and what to expect. He is very procedural and gave us a checklist of documents to submit and we did it. He gave me a nice discount because i retained his service for the second time and he quoted us a very reasonable price for his service. The overall process went very smooth and we did not receive any RFE's from USCIS which i am very impressed with and got our interview scheduled in 4 months from the application date. The adjustment interview went very well and Ryan arrived ahead of the schedule and stayed with us the whole time and answered some of the questions that came up on the new public charge rule as well other documents that the officer was looking for. We had our case approved on the spot. Right from the beginning, Ryan gave me the confidence on our case which we liked. Ryan has always been very thoughtful on answering any of our questions and very prompt. I highly recommend Ryan for anyone who is looking for an attorney who is professional and know's his stuff and very nice to work on any immigration related matters.

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.
