Attorney Roger Rathi

Hands down, Mr. Rathi is THE best Immigration Lawyer. He is incredibly professional, no nonsense kind of person who gets down to business and resolves his clients complex immigration issues. Mr. Rathi is also well known and respected in Immigration Law community and represents his clients in the best... possible way. He was easily accessible at all times and is willing to speak with his clients if they have any questions (unlike many Attorneys who once they are retained abandon their clients). He even gave us his personal cellular phone and answered any questions we had. For clients who cant afford to pay his fees at once there is a monthly payment set up to take the stress of paying it all at once. Frankly, I was pleasantly surprised at how easy everything was with Mr. Rathi. Everything he told us was absolutely how it happened. It took us about 5 months to receive Green Card. I went for my interview and 5 days later I received my Green Card. Thank you Mr. Rathi for making this scary process easy for us! We will refer you to other people in need of immigration services.

Immigration & Criminal Convictions

Mr. Roger Rathi and his team of experienced attorney's helped my family resolve our legal issues and remain together as one. My husband was facing deportation due to a criminal conviction from nearly 5 years ago. We never once imagined that our family would be facing troubles of this kind due to my h...usband making a few mistakes in life and hiring an incompetent attorney that encouraged my husband to accept a plea bargain, but failed to disclose immigration consequences resulting with a guilty plea. My husband applied for Citizenship unaware that he could be facing getting kicked out of this country, and incarcerated for over 2 months in ICE custody awaiting deportation proceedings. We thank the good lord for putting Roger Rathi and his team in our path. I thank god everday that I chose to hire Roger and his team, because they did everything in their power to help us get out of this situation with the greatest outcome possible. I can assure you that if you are facing any legal issues, look no further Rathi Law is who you want on your side!!! My husband is free and no longer has to worry about a 5 year old mistake haunting him. If you want an GREAT OUTCOME this is the TEAM of ATTORNEY'S you want to hire! Don't think twice call them today. Thanks again Roger & Team for all that you've done for us.

Excellent experience

My husband and I have nothing but good things to say about our experience with attorney Roger Rathi and his team at legal quest. They helped us file fiancé visa February of 2016, and the process went threw fast. My now husband flew in September of 2016. On our first immigration interview the officer ...denied us wanting more proof. Roger wrote up a legal paper to go along with our resubmit papers and it was finally approved. My husband received his green card in June. Compared to hearing other people’s experience, I’m very happy with our choice in hiring Roger. He’s very experienced in immigration paper work and how the system is ran. We are very greatfull for there help! Thank you!
