Excellent

Brian is very nice. He helped me prepare all the paperworks. He is ready to answer all my questions. Working with Brian, you don't need to worry anything. Just sleep well, get ready for the interview and get good result.

Immigration process

From the very first conversation Brian was extremely helpful with all of my questions. He was at our service any time we needed him and kept us in the loop the whole way. He came to our interview and helped us prepare to the best his ability. I look forward to working with you and your office again t...o continue this journey!!

Highly Recommended

We hired Brian when my wife was trying to get her permanent resident card after traveling here from Peru. Brian helped us with all the paperwork & answered many questions.. Brian is very professional & very reasonable in price. Hire him!

Thorough and confident!

I knew of Brian since I took one of his classes at Lansing Community College back in 2011. Fast forward to 2017, I reached out to him to help my wife obtain a permanent resident card. We were very worried about not being approve, since we heard lots of horror stories. Brian assured us that there was ...nothing to be worried about, as long as we provide all of the necessary documentations. Brian and Nikki both are very professional at what they do. When we hired them, we had peace of mind. They were able to handle all of our request. We definitely recommend them and will most likely use them again in the future.

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.
